Star Plant
The star plant design concept is the ideal solution for the mixing processes of products that either require a re-reaction time such as a binding agent or require re-adjustment and quality control. The stationary solid dosing system (1) together with the ψ-Mix™ (2) form the central dispersing unit. The ψ-Mix™ is connected via a ring line with several, separately adjustable process tanks (3). During the mixing process, the completed batches can re-react or be reworked in the other agitating tanks. As soon as this process is completed the tanks are emptied, cleaned and filled with new liquid.
Multiple Line Plant
The"Multiple line" plant concept describes the ideal solution for large product quantities such as newspaper printing inks. Here, the ψ-Mix™ (1) is used in connection with a batch tank (2), and a solid feeding system as dispersing unit. After finishing the dispersion processes which are operating in circulation, the product is alternately fed into one of two storage tanks (3) in the process line. The process line is switched alternatively. The product is then ground via two inline arranged agitator bead mills, type LME (4) and stored in a process tank (5). Meanwhile, another dispersing batch is processed. After completion, the product is fed to the storage tank (6) of the second production line. With this system, it is possible to run both lines continuously in three shifts.
