Elevating Nutritional Powder Processing with Tailored Solutions
At its new home in Germany, a custom-designed mixing installation is driving efficiency in a nutritional powder processing line.
Our latest client installation has been designed around a 3000-liter batch capacity rotary drum, which homogenizes nutritional powders while spraying the batches with sunflower oil.
As with all Lindor machines, the mixer-coater at the core of the installation is designed for gentle processing. Our gentle mixing technology ensures the product is homogenized and coated without experiencing any degradation.
Custom Engineered Vacuum Transport System
The installation boasts an advanced vacuum transport system, which conveys the product into the mixing drum. The raw, bagged product is loaded into a sieve to remove lumps, and from there, a flexible pipe pumps the sieved product into a 40-liter receiving hopper, which then drops it into the mixing drum.
When designing the installation, Lindor engineers set out to create a perfect flow of product through the vacuum transport system—like water flowing unobstructed. An air pump, which makes the vacuum effect and adds air to the product, achieves this perfect flow.
Designed with Hygiene as a Top Priority
The drum of all Lindor mixers is strategically designed without corners or creases where powders can get lodged, making for an effortless cleaning process. But to meet even higher hygiene requirements, this multifunctional machine also has several features such as CIP (cleaning-in-place) nozzles and a special water-blasted, smooth surface on which particles can glide off with ease.
Furthermore, it has been configured with our extremely popular retractable inlet and outlet, and 3 large inspection hatches. These features allow for quick and easy cleaning and inspection-minimizing downtime while achieving the highest hygiene standards.
