IKA conical dryer type CM
CM mixer
The IKA conical mixer type CM provides efficient and gentle mixing of bulk materials. The conical mixer is suitable for mixing any bulk materials, including products with varying bulk densities and particle sizes.
Mixing is carried out using a special spiral mixer. Thanks to the cantilever arrangement of the mixing element on the container lid, it is possible to do without shaft seals that come into contact with the product. The aerodynamic shape of the mixer helps reduce friction and increase vertical lift. The product is intensively mixed in both radial and tangential directions. A flow deflector built into the lid stimulates turbulence in the product processing area. The speed of the spiral mixer is continuously adjustable, so it can be easily adapted to the properties of the product.
The conical shape of the container ensures 100 percent product discharge and ease of cleaning. Upon request, the cover can be equipped with three rotating nozzles for thorough, dead-zone-free, non-disassembly CIP cleaning.
A significant innovation in the mixer design is a combined device for lifting and rotating the lid or lifting and tilting the container. A special tipping device provides a 90° lift-turn of the lid together with the agitator for optimal control and cleaning of the work area.
Alternatively, this mechanism allows the container to be tilted with the lid closed. The inclined position of the container during the process significantly increases the drying efficiency. The advantages of mixing the product in an inclined position are due to the force of gravity acting on the product being dried, in addition to the forces arising from the operation of the mixer. The container can be installed in any position at an angle from 0° to 45°.
The working capacity of the basic conical mixer is mounted on tubular supports with flat bases for fastening to the floor.
The high-quality mixer container (with lifting and tilting device) is equipped with rollers that allow it to be rolled out of the base frame with integrated electrical control. On request, the conical mixer can be equipped with several identical mobile mixing tanks, storage tanks or reaction tanks.
The possibilities for expanding the scope of supply of the conical mixer are practically unlimited: - Installing the capacity on the load cells
- Incorporation of a compactor for reliable crushing of agglomerates
- Equipping the conical mixer with a sampling valve that has no dead zones and ensures a very representative sample, even when operating in vacuum or under pressure
- Equipping the mixer with an outlet valve and an automatic mixer control system, which also provides display of process parameters
The IKA conical dryer range consists of eleven different sizes with a usable working volume of 10 to 10,000 liters.
Advantages of the IKA conical mixer: - Gentle mixing of sensitive products using a special spiral mixer
- Best results thanks to the possibility of mixing in an inclined position
- Cantilever shaft arrangement prevents product contact with the seal
- The flow deflector prevents the material from rotating with the agitator
- The speed of the spiral mixer is infinitely adjustable and can therefore be easily adapted to the product properties.
- Flip-open lid mechanism makes it easy to access the container
- Easy access for operation and maintenance thanks to low construction height
- At the customer's request, the installation can be equipped with several additional mobile tanks and other optional components.
- Optional electric control
- 100 percent product discharge from the tank thanks to the use of a ball segment valve
- Trouble-free cleaning of the system by spraying the cleaning fluid through the built-in nozzles, which covers the entire inner surface of the tank
- Explosion-proof and hygienic version according to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards on request
- Permissible operating temperature from -10 to +150°C
- Optional built-in lump breaker for crushing possible agglomerates
- Reliable technology scaling when moving from lab to industrial scale
