Devised to aid in compliance with the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) and promote consistent product quality, the continuous mixer controls automatically log flow rates, feed rates, mixing speed, retention time, temperature, and other parameters as needed for effective lot tracing with a high level of data integrity fully compliant to 21 CFR Part 11. The continuous mixers are proven to improve throughput and efficiency versus batch mixing for food, nutrition, chemical, and pharmaceutical products while eliminating the extra steps required in batch mixing that may cause contamination and increase the risk of a recall.
The Gericke GCM mixers automatically mix multiple liquid and dry materials at throughputs ranging from 1 liters/hour for pharmaceutical applications up to 150,000 liters/hour and/or 100 tons/hour of dry materials for food applications. It may be custom-designed to meet virtually any requirements. The mixers may be tested at the Gericke test laboratory.
