A method and computer program product for simulating a pan coating process estimates at least one of tablet coating uniformity or coated tablet weight uniformity for tablets within a tablet a bed of a pan. The simulation includes obtaining a plurality of parameters associated with the pan coating process, selecting tablet paths for each cycle of a simulation tablet in the tablet bed, determining a coating amounts for the tablet based on selected tablet paths, determining cycle times for the tablet, and summing the determined coating amounts and cycle times for the tablet, and summing the determined coating amounts and cycle times for the tablet. The simulation is repeated for each of a defined number of simulation tablets representing the tablets within the tablet bed to determine tablet coating uniformity and/or coated tablet weight uniformity for the tablets. Tablet paths and/or cycle times are determined randomly, e.g., in accordance with a Monte Carlo method.
