Employs ultra-fine grinding for cell disruption and extraction of ingredients

DYNO^®-MILL MULTI LAB (ML) from WAB-GROUP^® is an adaptable laboratory agitator bead mill, well-suited for small-scale productions and R&D in biotechnology. Suitable in continuous and discontinuous operations, the bead mill specifically designed for smaller applications can utilize ultra-fine grinding beads as small as 0.1mm. It has adjustable grinding chamber sizes, material selection, and adaptable grinding technology. It incorporates two grinding principles in one mill: the DYNO^® agitator disc and the patented DYNO^®-ACCELERATOR.

Discontinuous operation utilizes grinding vessels of 0.15 l and 0.3 l to handle low-viscosity suspensions. The batches range from 85 ml to 170 ml. Continuous operation is suitable for processing highly fluid to viscous, pumpable products.  It employs grinding containers of 0.15, 0.3, 0.6, and 1.4 l to process batch sizes exceeding 500 ml. Using superior ceramic components such as SiC and ZrO₂ ensures no metal contamination and an extended service life.

Save time with a fast and easy to maintain bagging solution

STATEC BINDER’S PRINCIPAC is a fully automatic, high-performance bagging solution for open-mouth bags. It can process up to 2000 bags per hour, making it one of the leading bagging solutions.

The open mouth bagging machine can process both pillow and gusset bags with filling weights ranging from 10 kg to 50 kg. It can process bags made of woven polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and paper. The prefabricated bags are separated from the magazine and individually transported to the pickup station with the help of vacuum suction cups. These bags are then opened to maximize their volume by the suctions bar, and are clamped to the filling spout. The product is measured to the specified level and is filled into the bag. Upon finishing the filling process, the bags are placed on the conveyor belt and then transported to the bag sealing machine. The bag is then sown, heat-sealed or hot-glued depending on its material.

It is ideally suited for any type of free-flowing bulk products such as petrochemical bulk materials, chemicals, sugar or rice. It can also have an additional equipment such as a dustproof filling spout for powdery products such as flour.

More control in your flash drying system

The Micron Dryer flash dryer, Drymeister® (DMR-H) from Hosokawa, can dry temperature-sensitive products, safely, even under increased temperatures, in a matter of seconds. Process parameters like classifier speed and outlet temperature can be adapted to control moisture content and particle size of the end product. The drying system is very flexible, handling moisture content fluctuations from a few % up to more than 80% in suspensions, slurries, pastes, dough, filter cakes and wet powders. The Drymeister® requires 75% less space and uses about 30-40% less energy per kilogram of evaporated water than conventional methods. The Flash combines drying system can be used in different industries such as the food industry, the chemical industry with applications in products such as pesticides, inorganic pigments and fish feed.

Compact high impact mixer for large volumes

The Schugi® Flexomix from Hosokawa Micron is a high-impact mixer developed to achieve a highly homogeneous mixture of powders and liquids. It is unlike any other continuous mixer with its vertical cylindrical chamber and vertical rotating shaft and is capable of handling high volumes of product. Its high rotational speed and turbulent mixing keep the mixer chamber clean; it provides accurate dosing of both liquid and solid components and is suitable for even the stickiest of media. Liquids of varying viscosity and steam can be added using atomizing nozzles mounted to the upper part of the chamber just above the upper mixing blades.
