for the mixing of low viscosity, high viscosity and particulate
products
With this mixing plant from GEA TDS new innovative products can be
produced using methods and processes not previously available. Various kinds of
low viscosity, high viscosity and particulate products can be mixed with each
other without difficulty producing a suspension or dispersion as the result.
The whole process takes place either at atmospheric pressure, below atmospheric
pressure or above atmospheric pressure, up to 1 bar, as required, and all at
pilot plant standard. The mixer consists of a 100-litre product tank with
double walls that can be either heated (max. 100 °C) or cooled (min. 1 °C) as
required.
The vessel is equipped with a centrally installed anchor agitator with stripper
for left-hand and right-hand motion. In addition there is a lateral placed
turbo agitator with a tooth wheel and dissolver. The agitators can be frequency
controlled for optimal matching to the mixing process. The definition of
the process parameters required for product production come
from evaluation of the tests conducted.
The pilot mixing plant is
equipped with a small control cabinet.
