Homogenizer for creams

Homogenization Equipment

Homogenization is the process of reducing particle size in mixtures to improve the consistency, uniformity, and stability of the product. The choice of a homogenizer depends on the nature of the product, desired particle size, the physical state of the ingredients, and pressure requirements during the process. Homogenization is widely used in the biotech industry for cell lysis and in the pharmaceutical industry for the emulsification of creams and ointments; it also finds applications in the cosmetics and food industries for improving the consistency and uniformity of various products.

Continuous

The quality of gypsum and stucco products is highly influenced by the quality of the calcining process utilized in the production. Post-processing of calcined gypsum can further enhance the product's quality and reduce production costs, all at once.


<h2>Enhanced product quality through better mixing and homogenization under controlled conditions</h2>
Claudius Peters’ Smart Gypsum homogenizer receives a fresh calcined gypsum continuously at a full temperature from the calciner and improves its quality through post-processing. The material is fed through a vertical reactor chamber with a fabric floor which evenly distributes the fluidizing air allowing the gypsum to float freely in the reactor. Additional air is injected through nozzles in a way that ensures complete mixing of the material in the reactor and outflow of a homogenous product. Moisture content of product outflow is also influenced by the characteristics of the fluidizing and additional air streams. The system can be operated at ambient or under pressurized conditions. Careful control of the processing pressure can be used to determine some characteristics of the product's outflow.

Homogenization

Industrial mixing equipment is used to combine a heterogeneous mix of two or more solid, liquid or gaseous ingredients into a homogenous product. The choice of a suitable mixing technology depends on the physical state of the ingredients and the desired mixing process; the sensitivity of the ingredients and process temperature and pressure requirements are also important factors. There are many different types of industrial mixers. As a result, the type of mixer you will need will be determined by the type of product you want to produce.

Batch

Processes including homogenization, dispersing, suspension, emulsification and dissolving benefit with the addition of a dispersing rotor/stator system to the functionality of traditional overhead stirring equipment.  With traditional equipment, achieving desired results in high viscosity media is often difficult and slow and issues such as sediment formation and air inclusions are common.  Adding a high speed rotor and jet pipe in close proximity to the mixing vane greatly enhances the process and helps avoid many of these issues.
<h2>Fast and efficient agitation of highly viscous fluids</h2>
IKA's Rototron RTS is a line of agitators that uses jet-flow technology to speed mixing processes while avoiding many of the issues seen when more traditional equipment is used.  The jet flow agitators use a high speed rotor and jet pipe in close proximity to the mixing vanes to disperse and circulate products within a vessel while avoiding inefficiency caused by back flow, air inclusions caused by a static whirlpool effect, and the need for flow breakers caused by continuously rotating mixtures.  The circulation mechanism also avoids the common issue of sediment formation when being used to produce emulsions.  The units can be used with open and pressurized vessels and mounting options exist to accommodate a wide variety of vessels and configurations.  With this equipment, no seal material makes contact with the product and food or pharmaceutical grade versions are readily available.  Motor sizes are available from 2,2 to 15 kW with max batch sizes from 1.000 to 20.000 liters.

Jet flow agitator for high-viscosity media

An emulsifier is used to mix two immiscible liquids. Heating or cooling requirements during emulsification, overpressure or vacuum requirements, the need for wall scrapers, design of the mixing head, the viscosity of the liquids, and the desired droplet size are all important considerations when selecting an emulsifying system. Emulsifiers are typically used in the food industry for the production of batters, creams, and sauces, in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry for the production of creams and lotions, and in the chemical industry for the production of paint and other emulsions.

Emulsifying

When processes call for homogenized emulsions with extremely fine particle sizes the traditional toothed ring dispensers are not always sufficient.  For extremely high levels of disintegration required to produce true micro-emulsions, extreme pressure cycling is more successfully used.
<h2>Homogenization with pressure shock to achieve extremely small particle sizes</h2>
The HPH High Pressure Homogenizer from IKA uses one or more piston pumps to apply pressure up to 2000 bar to the liquid medium to be homogenized.  The fluid is then fed through a homogenizing valve which very quickly reduces the pressure to the atmosphere.  This abrupt change in pressure in the moving fluid causes cavitation, a high degree of turbulent flow, and internal shearing forces in the fluid all of which serve to break up and distribute larger particles forming a very fine emulsion.  The pressure applied on the uphill side of the homogenizing valve is infinitely adjustable as is the flow rate through the valve, so the process can be easily adapted to achieve a wide range of outcomes and to accommodate fluids with different flow characteristics.  All parts that contact the product flow are stainless steel and autoclavable and the entire unit is designed for robustness and long service life.

Biotech equipment is used for cellular and biomolecular processing to develop products that improve our lives and the planet. With the help of specialized lab equipment, the active substance is manufactured or extracted from biological origin materials and typically produced in bioreactors by plant cells, microbial cells, yeast cultures, or mammalian cells. Cell isolation, cultivation, cell banking, and culture expansion are called upstream processes. After harvest, the production process moves into a downstream process to meet purity and quality requirements which is divided into cell disruption, purification, and polishing. Biotechnology equipment makes use of various laboratory machinery such as bioreactors, centrifuges and incubators.

Biotech

Formulation technologies are an integral process in many industries such as pharma and food. Chemical mixtures require strict handling to combine the separate ingredients into the homogenized recipe that makes your final product. Formulation technology stores, mixes and subjects the elements to a range processing parameters according to your specifications to develop the base material. The resulting formulas are then weighed, formed, packaged, or sent for further formulation.

Formulation

Milling machines are used to reduce the size of a material, by cutting, crushing, or grinding it. The choice of industrial milling equipment depends on the industry and the materials to work with, besides there is a great difference between those aimed at metal works and those for other materials.

Milling

<span style="font-weight: 400;">For any industrial pharmaceutical process that relies on high pressure homogenization it’s vital that the equipment used is robust enough to cope with the demands of continuous operation.

Industrial drying machines are designed to remove moisture from your product. But the drying process must cater to variations in the state of matter and molecular structure of the input material. Drying technology exploits the modes of industrial heat transfer (convection, conduction, radiation, evaporative cooling) to control the moisture content.

Drying

Industrial sterilization processes are employed in different industries to completely eliminate all living microorganisms from the final product. For instance, in food processing, sterilization equipment is used to produce a stable product with a long shelf-life by eradicating harmful bio-contaminants. Instead, in the medical field, sterilization technologies aim to prevent the transmission of microbes to patients by sterilizing all the tools and medical devices that come in contact with the patient. Most sterilization equipment, such as autoclaves, employs high-temperature pressurized steam to destroy bacteria and disinfect surfaces from spores. Other methods include radiation sterilization or using chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.

Sterilization

The production of high-quality cosmetics powders requires perfect mixing and dispersal of elements such as pigments, pearls and binders into a base powder.

Vacuum based homogenizer

Whether it is marmalade or pizza, sauce or hummus, chocolate or fruit puree, most food products undergo a cooking step during their production process. Cooking is nothing more than applying heat to food, but there are different methods to do it. For instance, baking, frying, and roasting involve cooking food without using water, unlike boiling or steaming. Industrial cookers such as vacuum and pressure cookers, industrial fryers, industrial ovens, and industrial roasters focus on specialized applications that meet the different needs of the food industry by helping producers achieve a homogeneous cooking process.

Cooking

<span style="font-weight: 400">The heating process is a step of raising the temperature of food, pharma, cosmetics, and many other types of products. You may employ different heating solutions for this process, depending on the type of product you intend to manufacture. Selecting the appropriate heater machine for your product is quite important since various products require different ranges of temperatures and different ways of heat transfer using exchangers. Industrial heating equipment varies in two ways - the type of material it can process and the reaction you want to achieve.</span>

Heating

The process of making cream and lotion involves mixing of water phase and oil phase to create an emulsion. These two immiscible liquids require vigorous mixing action that reduces the particle size in the mixture to produce a stable cosmetic product.
<h2>Homogenizing system with three independent mixing elements for producing cosmetic emulsions</h2>
Turbo emulsifier from Lorenzato is a machine suitable for producing emulsions such as beauty creams and make-up products. This machine has stainless steel panels with a butter finish making it heat resistant and preventing emulsion stickiness.

This helps to achieve high mixing power and rapid homogenization. It has an inspection probe that helps to control the temperature in the water-cooling process which is done at 0.5 bar max. pressure. The Turbo emulsifier features a cleaning system with spray balls. It can be of different tank capacities ranging from 10 L to 1000 L.

Emulsifier for cosmetic creams

From food to pharma, homogenization is an essential step in the production process that provides uniformity to the product by improving its physical properties. If not homogenized, the fluid product might degenerate over time, leading to the formation of sediments and phase separation. This will lead to the loss of desirable product properties like uniformity, viscosity, consistency and reduced shelf life. 
<h2>Reducing product particle size using cavitation provides fluid stability</h2>
High Pressure Industrial Homogenizer from HOMMAK facilitates permanent homogenization of heterogeneous fluid products like milk, fruit juices, creams, ointments and more. The homogenization effect is achieved by reducing the product particle size through cavitation, shear force, impact velocity and turbulence effect under pressure, thereby preventing phase separation in the product.

The homogenizer consists of two main elements – the compression block and the homogenization unit. As the name suggests, the compression block compresses the ingredients under high pressure. The homogenization unit micronizes the decomposed particles to the specified size per the product.

The equipment's design and manufacturing considerations like capacity, pressure, material selection and valve design are tailored to its specific industrial application.

Pilot plant homogeniser

Equipment operating under the rotor/stator principal is often employed when more traditional methods of stirring cannot achieve desired results. High performance continuous dispersing equipment is needed to achieve desirable results for almost any mixing process in circumstances where other machines fail.
<h2>Rotor/stator mixing in a robust and simple package that is easy to clean</h2>
The IKA ULTRA-TURRAX UTL 2000 is inline high-performance single-stage dispersing machine used for the production of emulsions and suspensions. The UTL 2000 uses the rotor/stator principle and is best suited for continuous applications that cannot be accomplished using conventional stirring methods.

During the full continuous process the components to be mixed are fed into the machine at an appropriate rate through various inlet connections. These components are then thoroughly mixed, dispersed or homogenized within the machine and discharged from the machine through the outlet. Thus, all particles or droplets are treated producing a narrow particle or droplet size distribution with minimal concentration/quality variations. Additionally, the UTL 2000 creates a pumping action which can be used for transfer purposes at low to moderate viscosities with a maximum of about 20 m (ca. 2 bar).

The machines are designed for easy and reliable scale-up and sizes are available with throughput from 50 to 125.000 liters per hour.

Dispersing machine for emulsions and suspensions

Dispersing systems are used to produce emulsions of two immiscible liquids or dispersions of solid particles in a liquid medium. The mixers generally operate on the rotor/stator principle and apply a high shear force on the suspended particles to break them down. The choice of a dispersion mixer depends on the physical state of the material being dispersed, the continuous or batch nature of the process, desired particle size, and the viscosity of the mixture. Dispersion mixers are widely used in the food industry for the dispersion of solid ingredients in oil or water and in the coatings industry for the dispersion of pigments.

Dispersing

For products of medium viscosity and relatively consistent particle size such as honey, cremes, and some plastics, a simple, low cost mixing machine is useful to ensure even dispersion.  The most efficient production plants take advantage of such equipment in continuous production processes to minimize required floor space and serve double-duty as mixing and pumping/transfer equipment.

Pilot high pressure homogenizer

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The production of high quality pharmaceuticals often requires mixing of suspensions and similar solutions. A key challenge to overcome is the unwanted incorporation of air to the mix. Air incorporation causes major problems in processing and end-product quality. Air in the product may </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">cause excessive foaming, increased fouling in heat exchangers, and cavitation in homogenizers. A modern vacuum mixing solution can overcome these problems, as well as ensuring efficient operations with longer production hours, lower maintenance costs, and a safe, high-quality end product.</span>
<h2>Mobile and fixed vacuum mixing units for pharmaceutical production</h2>

Vacuum mixer for suspensions

When manufacturing toothpaste, dispersing and mixing powders into liquids to create a consistent, homogeneous product is among the most difficult and challenging of mixing applications. The main problem associated with mixing powders into liquids is aeration and foaming. Unwanted air and oxidation can increase the risk of browning, off-flavors, and result in the loss of essential nutrients, like Vitamin C. Thus, it’s essential to use the right mixing equipment.
<h2>Precisely mix powders into liquids</h2>
The continuous plant type zoatec® CPU by AZO LIQUIDS is designed with a flow meter for liquid dosing and a loss-in-weight feeder for extremely precise powder dosing, thus allowing continuous production of high-quality products. It boasts intelligent control engineering and ensures optimum process control.

The machine is unique compared to conventional homogenizers as its flow direction is turned into the opposite direction of the drive. The mixer can also be used as a clean-in-place (CIP) pump due to its high pump capacity. It works by continuously dispersing and mixing variable amounts of dry solids into low viscosity to pasty liquids. Operators don’t need to premix raw materials, which makes the entire process easier.

Apart from fine powders, it is also able to process granules, and coated pellets, simultaneously. The shear rate can also be varied according to the nature of the materials, making the mixer incredibly flexible. It can thus also be used for the production of hair and skincare products, paint, food pastes etc.
