VORTEX CHAMBER®

Efficiency of homogenization and reaction processes

VORTEX CHAMBER®

Process Acceleration Through High Shear Force Input

The VORTEX CHAMBER® installed at the bottom of the mixing drum significantly increases the efficiency of homogenization and reaction processes without protruding into the drum. This means that the entire drum surface is covered by the main mixing mechanism, and dead spaces are avoided due to the design – for resource-saving processes and better material utilization.

Typical Applications

  • Wetting powders with liquids without lump
  • Dust-free and homogeneous powder distribution in viscous products
  • Surface enlargement of the product during drying and reaction processes
  • Melting and pasting organic products (e.g., conching chocolate)
  • Grinding and homogenizing lumpy products (e.g., chocolate rework with nuts, wafers, and cookies)

Features

High shearing forces in a very small space: The rotor sucks the product into the center and, after passing through the shearing zone with high turbulence, throws it back into the product chamber.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Continuous product feed through the main mixing unit with constant forced flow through the shearing zone
  • Short but intense action that prevents local overheating
  • A high degree of self-cleaning for virtually residue-free emptying
  • The system can be retrofitted and is compatible with many existing mixing systems.
  • The system is energy-efficient and offers high performance at reduced speed and lower wear compared to other models.

Design Features

Compact integration: The VORTEX CHAMBER® operates according to the rotor/stator principle and remains outside the periphery of the mixing vessel, ensuring dead space-free and hygienic use of space.

Advantages:

  • Dead space-free processing thanks to main mixing tools that cover the entire chamber surface
  • Energy-efficient direct drive that reduces mechanical effort
  • Precise shearing action due to minimal rotor-stator distance for resource-saving processes

Piston Valve

This unique valve was developed by LIPP Mischtechnik to continuously transfer paste-like products from ambient atmosphere to a vacuum. In combination with the VORTEX CHAMBER®, it offers an optimal solution for accelerated drying and reactivity.

The valve is equipped with a heated double jacket to avoid product solidification.
