Vertical vacuum dryer and mixing reactor

Achieve precise control over drying and mixing processes with a versatile unit designed for variable filling levels, ensuring optimal conditions for both solid and liquid products.

Dries, Mixes, and Reacts Various Materials

The 3-in-1 Vertical Vacuum Dryer and Mixing Reactor from amixon® is a versatile unit designed to handle drying, mixing, and reaction tasks within a compact footprint. Its spiral mixing blade initiates a three-dimensional flow, providing uniform and gentle processing for materials ranging from moist powders to viscous pastes. This equipment is ideal for industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food processing, producing end-products like protein powders, wet baby formula, and ceramic slurry. With the capability to be customized for compliance with FDA and 3-A Sanitary Standards, it ensures operational safety and regulatory alignment. The equipment operates under vacuum or pressure-tight conditions and offers variable filling levels, integrating seamlessly into your production process with minimized energy consumption. Steam, thermal oil, or water heating options allow for precise temperature control across the mixing vessel, arms, and spiral blade. For those requiring a clean processing environment, the amixon® solution meets stringent sanitation and surface finish standards, with options for CIP (Clean-In-Place) systems to facilitate quick and thorough cleaning. Ideal for batch or continuous operations, this single-shaft mixer dryer is engineered for high-speed throughput while maintaining exceptional drying and mixing quality.
