Hygienic features in amixon® mixers
The amixon® mixing systems depicted have different areas of application. But they have the same hygiene features. One of the distinguishing features of a hygienic precision mixer is that it mixes the ingredients particularly gently.
amixon®has realised many pioneering developments to improve the hygiene standards of powder mixers. Some of these are described below.
ComDisc® tools for complete discharging
ComDisc® tools are capable of completely discharging mixers with a flat bottom. During the mixing process, the ComDisc® elements float in the flow shadow through the mix. In the final phase of emptying, the ComDisc® tools are lowered and gently sweep across the floor of the mixing chamber. Then they act like windshield wipers. They are arranged at an angle and push the remaining product into the discharge outlet.
The complete discharge after each batch can open up great additional benefits for mixing businesses. Especially when constantly changing recipes are mixed.
SinConvex® and SinConcave® mixing elements allow the mixing goods to flow out completely.
The mixing tools are seamlessly welded and ground. They are only driven and supported from above. The shaft bushing has a lip seal. This can be split on request and allows a worn seal to be replaced with minimal effort.
Inspection doors and their seals
amixon® has devoted a great amount of development work to this topic and established outstanding solutions: KwickKlamp®- door latches are easy to operate and permanently self-locking.
Food and pharmaceutical companies often use their mixers for 30 years or more. The mixing jobs change frequently, sometimes around 15 times per day. - The inspection doors are opened and closed countless times for cleaning purposes.
KwickKlamp® locking systems
An amixon® inspection door can also be cylindrically-conical. KwickKlamp® closure systems are particularly hygienic and smooth-running. When closed, they are permanently self-locking. Key transfer systems are tamper-proof and work purely mechanically. They are suitable for harsh operating conditions. They meet all requirements with regard to occupational safety.
The amixon® mixing systems depicted have different areas of application. But they have the same hygiene features. One of the distinguishing features of a hygienic precision mixer is that it mixes the ingredients particularly gently. Adhesion due to heat and friction is avoided.
The mixing container stands upright. A helical mixing tool rotates in the center of the mixing chamber. The three-dimensional circulation of the products is carried out independently of their individual flow behavior. The mixing tool picks up the mixing goods at the perimeter of the mixing chamber and conveys them upwards. The conical design enables ideal mixing qualities even with low filling levels (5%-10%).
