Applications of Vacuum Emulsifying mixer and tube filling and sealing machines

Author: Wilson Domingos

If you use creams, toothpastes, and other cosmetics, you would be wondering how the product is inserted into the tubes, right? Well, there are special kind of tube filling and sealing machine, which serve these purposes. With these machines, products like cream, ointment, gel, sauce, grease, shampoos, toothpastes, etc. can be filled and sealed. So, products having varying features of viscosity and flow can be packed with the help of tube filling machines.

Depending upon the type of product and tube, there are different kinds of tube filling and sealing machines available. The machines follow GMP norms, and have compatible designs. These are most suitable for filling and sealing lami and Aluminium tubes.

What is the use of Vacuum Emulsifying mixer?

In the Vacuum Emulsifying mixer, the materials go through a high speed of emulsifier or homogenizer. There is a narrow space, which forms a strong circulation inside the vessel. The mixer performs a greater impact, shearing and dispersion inside the vessel, which helps in blending, mixing, emulsifying and homogenizing the product inside the vessel. This will increase the smoothness, stability and the lustre of cream products.

Main uses and applications of emulsifying mixer

It is mainly used in the following sectors:

  • Cosmetics Industry: In making creams, lipstick, lotion, and shampoos
  • Food Industry: For packing Jam, butter, sauce, mayonnaise, cheese, margarine, etc.
  • Pharmaceutical Industry: Syrups, ointments, injections
  • Chemical Industry: In creating synthetic fibre, polyester
  • Painting Industry: For packing paints, water colours, synthetic resin paints
  • Miscellaneous: Shoe creams, wax, colours, and coating liquids.

How does the emulsifying mixer work?

  • Oil and water is mixed with the materials in a high speed so that a perfect emulsion product is created.
  • The machine consists of a vessel, which is vacuum-resistant, along with a jacket for cooling and heating. It is equipped with a high speed homogenizer, vacuum pump, scraping agitator, hydraulic pumps for lifting, cooling and heating.
  • There is also a vacuum pump, which takes out the air bubbles from the mixed product, and extends the storage time.
  • Depending upon the products, you can use the appropriate mixing heads. Some of the mixing heads include high viscosity types, high shearing types, low viscosity type and disperser type.
  • The machines also have safety devices, like the vacuum safety valve, over-loaded protection for motors, jacket safety valve, etc.
  • With the help of the heating and cooling the system, the processing becomes quite simplified. The heating, melting, emulsifying and the air bubble reduction, saves a lot of time and labour for the production.
  • Automatic control of the raw materials measurement, temperature recording for heating, emulsifying, melting, cooling and changes in mixing speeds etc., is possible.

These were some of the uses and applications of vacuum emulsifying mixer.
