Industrial vacuum mixer and reactor for liquids

For manufacturers needing precise blending and stability, this advanced vacuum mixer and reactor optimizes processes for high-viscosity and complex rheology products, enhancing efficiency in mixing, emulsification, and homogenization.

Mixes, Emulsifies, and Homogenizes Liquids and Semi-Solids

The Bachmix Compact from Bachiller is an industrial vacuum mixer and reactor engineered for precision in processing liquids and semi-solids. It stands out for its ability to handle complex mixing tasks using a slow anchor stirrer paired with a rotor-stator emulsifier, ensuring exceptionally fine and stable emulsions even with high-viscosity products. Ideal for applications in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food production, it supports the manufacture of end-products like bio cosmetic creams, vitamin-enriched syrups, and adhesive pastes.

Capacities range from 150L to 10,000L, with optional configurations accommodating atmospheric to 3 bar(g) operating pressure and temperatures up to 200°C. Automation is seamlessly integrated with PLC control and a color touch screen interface, enabling precise traceability and process control.

The unit features a liftable lid with an automatic SUPERCLAMP system and independently controlled coaxial mixing tools, reducing the need for post-process de-aeration. Its construction meets stringent sanitary design standards like cGMP and FDA, with options for ATEX compliance and CIP/SIP systems validated by Riboflavin test, ensuring both safety and ease of maintenance. Customizable elements and engineering support further enhance this highly-versatile equipment’s adaptability to specific industrial production needs.

Benefits

  • Enhances product quality with fine and stable emulsions, crucial for high-viscosity formulations.
  • Streamlines operations by reducing cleaning downtime with integrated CIP/SIP systems.
  • Optimizes energy use with efficient heating/cooling jacket, cutting operational costs.
  • Ensures regulatory compliance with cGMP and FDA standards, supporting quality assurance.
  • Facilitates easy process control and monitoring, minimizing operator intervention with PLC automation.
