Rotary blender MCR

for the pharmaceutical industryfor the food industryheating

Counter-rotating blenders are used for mixing and homogenizing dispersed products at a controlled temperature with an optimum performance, regardless of the product viscosity. These units are intended primarily for pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food and personal care products industries. They are ideal for processes which require heating, vacuum, premixing, additions, vigorous agitation, emulsion or dispersion, as well as pressure and temperature. The skid can work at -1 to 0.5 bar and the double jacket - up to 3 bar. The operating temperature is between -7 a 120 ºC. It is possible to control the following parameters: temperature, pressure, pH, weight and viscosity. The unit is provided with a cleaning system with rotating spray balls in order to be connected to a CIP and SIP cleaning system. Some examples of products that can be treated with these units are all kinds of creams, gels, sunscreens, depilatories, makeup, deodorants, sauces, pates, pastes, shoe creams, emulsions, paraffin mixtures, wax mixtures, carbopol dispersions, tooth pastes, products intended for drugstores and parapharmacies. Operating principle The unit has a sealed tank where mixing takes place by means of an anchor type agitator, a central shaft with counter-rotating blades that move in the opposite direction to the anchor, and an emulsifying disperser located at the bottom of the shaft. The unit normally operates under vacuum during the entire duration of the mixing process.When the agitation starts, the anchor and the central blades rotate slowly while the bottom mixer is put into operation.
