MCR Counter-Rotating Blenders

Counter-rotating blenders are used for mixing and homogenizing dispersed products at a controlled temperature with an optimum performance, regardless of the product viscosity. These units are intended primarily for pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food and personal care products industries.

They are ideal for processes which require heating, vacuum, premixing, additions, vigorous agitation, emulsion or dispersion, as well as pressure and temperature.

The unit is provided with a cleaning system with rotating spray balls in order to be connected to a CIP and SIP cleaning system.

The unit has a sealed tank where mixing takes place by means of an anchor type agitator, a central shaft with counter-rotating blades that move in the opposite direction to the anchor, and an emulsifying disperser located at the bottom of the shaft.

The unit MCR normally operates under vacuum during the entire duration of the mixing process.
