The reactor / dryer is equipped with heat exchanger for hot water, both on the vessel and on the rotor shaft for a better performance and has an ATEX certification II 2G suitable for use in zone 1, for both external and internal parts. The inerting of the mixing / drying chamber is guaranteed by the introduction of CO2 through the flushing of the rotor shaft seals. The provided automation system is able to analyze constantly the variations of temperature and of vacuum level inside the mixer / dryer. The system is able to compare actual levels of temperature and pressure with process target levels and consequently manages to calculate the time needed to complete the process. In this way it is the system itself that autonomously determines the most appropriate moment to discharge the dried product and to start a new batch. The entire process lasts approximately 60 minutes, including filling and emptying of the mixer / dryer. The mixer / dryer is equipped with a special self-cleaning de-dusting filter, equipped with heating system and insulation to prevent condensation. The filtering elements, in stainless steel, are suitable for continuous use even in the presence of acid products.
Each mixer is designed to be able to optimally perform the productive tasks, for which it has been conceived. Thanks to the advanced internal test laboratory, it is always possible for MIX and for its Customers to securely test new recipes and to reproduce even the most complicated industrial production processes. In this way, it becomes much easier to determine the characteristics of each raw material and, therefore, identify the most suitable mixing techniques for obtaining the desired result. Since several years, MIX s.r.l. has been investing in quality system through new certifications on industrial management system. Therefore, the company has been working on all levels to obtain the certification to ISO international standards of QUALITY (UNI EN ISO 9001), ENVIRONMENT (UNI EN ISO 14001) and SAFETY (UNI EN ISO 45001).
