Innovative technologies

 

amixon® looks back on a 40-year tradition and, with more than 40 patent applications worldwide, has become the quality leader for vertical precision mixers.

 

Our mixers achieve ideal mixing qualities. However, amixon® also takes care of other important issues:

  • Better automation.
  • Excellent operator ergonomics.
  • Best possible discharge.
  • Automated cleaning (dry and wet).
  • Highest hygiene standards.

 

amixon® mixers are used for dry, moist and wet solids. Mixing systems, vacuum mix dryers and synthesis reactors from amixon® are among the best in their class.

KoneSlid® Mixer

The KoneSlid® mixer is an innovative further development of the amixon® cone mixer. KoneSlid® mixers achieve ideal mixing qualities within 30 to 120 seconds – regardless of the filling level. No matter what the properties of the bulk materials are. The mixing process is particularly gentle and careful. The granulometry of your powders is not changed.

 

In the KoneSlid® mixer, not only is emptying complete, but the emptying process takes only a few seconds.

 

KoneSlid® mixers are ideal for mixing materials with sensitive particle structures.

  • For example, powders that have been dried in a spray tower and agglomerated in a fluidised bed.
  • All types of breadcrumbs where the particles must not be crushed,
  • dry foods with good instant properties,
  • coated particles,
  • moist bulk materials that must not agglomerate,
  • nanostructured high-performance ceramics
  • .....

 

KoneSlid® mixers are also used where mixing and discharging times are minimal.

  • For example, when batch mixers mix virtually continuously.

New amixon® test center

In 2024, amixon® built three new synthesis reactors/vacuum mixing dryers for testing purposes. The batch size is 200 litres. We can modify, dry, refine or synthesise substances for our customers.

In our technical centre, amixon® is happy to meet demanding process requirements:

  • Vacuum up to 25 bar overpressure
  • Temperature up to 350°C
  • Alloy 59 material for corrosive products
  • Explosion-proof environment (Gasex and Dustx requirements)

Please visit us with your original product! We look forward to your challenges!

Gyraton® mixer

For the homogenization of large batches:

  • Technically ideal and precise
  • with minimum drive power
  • with a compact mixing system

The Gyraton® mixer is another new development from amixon®. It can be used for all types of bulk goods. Regardless of whether they flow well or poorly, are dry or wet. Regardless of whether they have different grain sizes and bulk densities. A Gyraton® test mixer is available for test mixtures of up to 3 m³.

SpherHelics® hollow sphere mixer

The mixing chamber is a hollow sphere. A helical mixing tool rotates inside it. This conveys the mixing goods from bottom to top. The axis of the mixing tool can be arranged vertically or at an angle. The greater the angle, the better the mixing effect. The optimum angle is 20°. This mixing system therefore belongs to the group of vertical precision powder mixers.

SpherHelics® hollow sphere mixers have similar interesting properties to the amixon® vertical single-shaft mixer.

  • Very good mixing results
  • Mixes well even at low filling levels.
  • Good hygienic properties
  • Compact design
  • Additional features can be added on request.
    • Cutting rotor
    • Liquid material addition indicator
    • ComDisc®
    • SinConvex®
    • OmegaSeal®
    • WaterDragon®
    • ....

Clever-Cut® inspection hatches with OmgaSeal® seal

amixon® mixers are equipped with large, ergonomic inspection doors that allow access to the mixing room. The special feature is that the inspection doors of the amixon® mixers seal "free of dead space". The O-ring seals very close to the mixing goods. An innovative manufacturing process ensures that amixon® inspection doors remain permanently sealed. This is also the case with frequent opening. Another special feature: The groove that the O-ring is inserted into is curved backwards. The O-ring is clamped and cannot be lost. The pressed seal is reminiscent of the Greek letter omega.

KwickKlamp® is the ergonomic locking system from amixon®

When a powder mixer needs to be cleaned or inspected, every minute counts. Cleaning times are unproductive times.

The inspection door of a mixer is technically sophisticated. It follows the contour of the housing and must close tightly at all times. The seal must be free of dead space and permanently gas-tight. The closure system must be safe and quick to operate.

 

This is exactly why KwickKlamp® was developed. It fulfils two tasks:

  1. It presses the inspection door firmly into place and
  2. locks it securely in the end position.

 

Your advantages at a glance:

  • One-hand operation: the door can be opened and closed easily, quickly and reliably with just one hand.
  • Robust and durable: The sturdy construction is designed for high loads and many closing cycles.
  • Secure closure: Thanks to the self-locking mechanism, accidental opening is impossible.
  • Ergonomically designed: The high force transmission in the final phase of pressing ensures easy and precise handling.
  • Hygienic design: There are no threads and no dirt corners. Cleaning is easy. The contact pressure can be individually adjusted.

For occupational safety reasons, KwickKlamp® is supplemented by electrical or mechanical locking systems.

ComDisc® complete discharge

Even the last residue in the mixer is ideally homogeneously mixed and should be sold. This avoids waste and minimizes cleaning effort. ComDisc® improves the batch yield to up to 99.97%. Self-cleaning takes place fully automatically.

The ComDisc® tools lift up during the mixing process. They operate in the current shadow. They only lower in the final phase of emptying. They then push the remaining, ideally mixed, product into the outlet port of the mixer. The food-safe plastic has a long service life. It is easily replaceable.

SinConvex® Mixing Blades

The innovative SinConvex® helical mixing blade initiates a three-dimensional powder flow within the mixing goods. Powders flow upwards in a spiral current along the periphery of the mixing chamber. After reaching the top, they flow back downwards along the mixing shaft. The mixing effect occurs three-dimensionally within the boundary areas between the two macro flows.

WaterDragon® Wet Cleaning System

WaterDragon® is a system for automatic wet cleaning and drying of an amixon® mixer / vacuum mixer dryer / synthesis reactor. The pressure of the washing water is approx. 3.5 bar, the temperature can be up to 90 °C.

A large opening cross-section is available for the incoming hot air. After the mixer has dried, the spray lance moves out of the mixing chamber. The opening then closes without any dead space.

Depending on the size of the machine, several WaterDragon® systems can be installed in the mixer.

Manufacturing portfolio of amixon®

amixon® is a global trendsetter and quality leader in the field of vertical precision mixers. We look forward to your specific task. All machines are available for trials, even for large batches of up to 3 m³. Risks that can arise from scale-up calculations can thus be eliminated.
