Laboratory vacuum mixer reactor for liquids and semi-solids

Achieve precise emulsification and mixing for high-viscosity and complex rheology products with a flexible vacuum mixer reactor, ideal for consistently producing stable liquids and semi-solids.

Performs Homogenization, Emulsion, and Deaeration

The BACHLAB Laboratory Vacuum Mixer Reactor from Bachiller is designed for precise laboratory-scale processing of liquids and semi-solids, making it essential for industries like pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Featuring a coaxial stirring assembly and high shear rotor-stator system, it excels in homogenization, emulsion, and deaeration tasks. Suitable for creating end-products like face serums and epoxy adhesives, it offers capacities from 5 to 150 liters. Automation is ensured through a PLC control system with Ethernet connectivity for easy supervision and recipe management. Engineered for integration, it operates under vacuum or pressure conditions with heating and cooling options. Its sanitary design complies with cGMP and EHEDG standards, ensuring ease of cleaning and maintenance. Options include ATEX certification and compatibility for FDA validation, highlighting its adaptability to unique production requirements.
