Vacuum Injection of Powders in the Center of the Emulsifier
Several manufacturing procedures for chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical or food products distribute powder-like solids during the liquid or pasty phases of operations. The most widely used tool to perform this operation is a single or double cage rotor-stator for basic operations and desired thinness of emulsion.
VMI-Rayneri has developed a major innovation, based on the vacuum injection of powders directly into the center of the emulsifier, thus eliminating the main drawbacks of the other conventional procedures:
- Immediate dispersion of powders upon injection:
- no risk of agglomeration of powders,
- no risk of projection of powders through the liquid phase.
- Simple and immediate adjustment of the vacuum level independent of the volume of products in the tank.
- Accelerated powders injection input.
- Improved production capacity.
- Elimination of recirculation piping.
- Elimination of zones that are hard to clean (dead zones).
To summarize, it is proven that vacuum injection in the center of the emulsifier as implemented by VMI-Rayneri offers a superior quality of dispersion and emulsifying procedures compared to the ones obtained by using conventional systems. Mixers equipped with this new technology become high performance production tools offering increased versatility and productivity.
