Because of its tried and tested reliability, emulsifying equipment applies in many industries, such as those that deal with food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals. The question is, how can a vacuum emulsifier ensure that all the ingredients are mixed quickly and evenly when making a large amount? What makes it widespread in manufacturing facilities?
High-Shear Homogenizer for Fast, Effective Emulsification Mixing
This is where the high-shear mixer works. Shear and energy dissipation rates are substantially higher than in more standard mixing containers. As a result, the mixer may homogenize and emulsify liquids as well as disperse and dissolve particles in liquids. Famous components, such as pectin, may dissolve in the powerful mixing technique, which takes just a short amount of time.
Automatic Production Level Control
The vacuum emulsifier has the choice of a weighing system or a liquid-level control system. Product inlet/outlet and level control work together to guarantee that the proper amount of fluid circulates through the system. If the liquid level has become too high or too low, it may be brought back to the optimal level using the load cell and frequency-regulated outlet pump. The blend’s powder composition also fluctuates throughout production (sugar, lactose, stabilizers). No matter how much powder is added to the mixer, the vacuum emulsifier’s emulsification stirring technique assures a reliable outcome.
Frequency Conversion Speed Vacuuming to Save Water, Ecology, and Economics
The stirring paddles of the vacuum emulsifier and high-shear homogenizer have speeds regulated through frequency conversion. The frequency converter lets the motor operate at the process-appropriate speed, saving energy and preserving the environment. In addition, the closed vacuum may reduce the emulsification system’s water and energy consumption by 50% and 70%, respectively, compared to the market competition model, controlling operational expenses.
Vacuum-Sucking: Clean Liquid and Powder Feeding
One of the favorite features of emulsifying equipment is that it has vacuum suction, which is used to keep the speed of the process constant. There is a vacuum buffer tank; if the vacuum is lost, the machine will turn off immediately. By doing this, we prevent backflow and bottlenecks that could stop production.
Automatic Closed System for Safe and Clean Manufacturing
The system is fully sealed to keep the product clean, so there is no chance of contamination. Mainly, the emulsifying mixer is adjustable to meet EHEDG and 3A standards and works well in a clean environment.
Degassing also extends the product’s shelf life by preventing bacteria from growing in the final product’s environment.
Is It Better to Have Fast Emulsifying Equipment?
Vacuum emulsifiers are used as part of the mixing system of industrial equipment to mix solids and liquids, liquids and liquids, oil and water, disperse and homogenize, shear grind, and do other tasks. The name “emulsifying equipment” comes from the fact that it can make things mix together. When the two phases are combined together, they separate into emulsions of oil in water and oil. At least two factors must occur for emulsification to happen:
First, the mechanical cutting does an excellent job of spreading ingredients out. At the same time, both the water phase and the oil phase in the fluid medium are broken up into small pieces. The water phase and oil phase then mix and penetrate each other to form an emulsion.
Second, an effective emulsifier serves as a link between the molecules of oil and water. With the help of electric charge and the attraction between molecules, the oil-water emulsion can be stable for as long as needed.
The shearing strength of the emulsifier determines the refining. Blade sharpness and hardness, stator gap, relative blade speeds, particle size limitations, and other factors are among the factors that need examination.
Because particle size is greatly influenced by the sharpness and hardness of the blades, the clearance of the stator, and the allowed base values, the relative speed of the blades, defined as the circumferential speed of the rotor assuming that the stator is stationary, is an essential consideration.
Further, if the speed is high, the fluid density of the cutting or impinging radial flow will be higher, which will cause a severe dilution effect, and the same is true if the speed is low. But the speed of the line should be as fast as possible. When it gets to a very high value, it tends to stop the flow. This means there is very little flow, much heat, and a buildup of material, all of which should be kept an eye on.
