Sanitary static mixers are not only the perfect fit for the food and beverage industry but also the pharmaceutical industry.  Pharmaceuticals like food and beverage have a high industry standard when it comes to sanitary requirements.  Komax has designed a static mixer that meets these demands while improving upon mixer technology for a more solution.

Pharmaceuticals  

Laboratories need to worry about the equipment that they use as contamination in the process is a very serious consideration.  They need to maintain the lowest possible germ count within the lab.  The process within labs is not just mixing ingredients together, they handle uniform output, heat transfer, and homogenization.  Inline mixing equipment is essential in day-to-day operations.

Pharmaceutical Applications

There are many applications in pharmaceuticals that they require an inline static mixer for.  Here are just a few examples.

• Penicillin production
• Detergent production
• Pasteurization and/or sterilization
• Mixing additives
• Continuous reactor process
• Production of inhalable insulin
• Producing pharmaceutical intermediate products
• Production of mixing cosmetics

Benefits of a Sanitary Static Mixers

There are many benefits to the Komax sanitary static mixers over a traditional static mixer.  Static mixers are motionless mixer parts that produce mixing and dispersion effects as the fluids flow.  Newer technology has made it easy to install, requires very little maintenance, and is at affordable price points.

The sanitary static mixer includes all the above benefits in addition to being electropolished and has removable elements so that cleaning is faster and minimizes downtime in production.  The mixer also has clean-in-place (CIP) technology so that there is no need to take it apart and clean it while still preserving hygiene standards.

The Technology in a Komax Sanitary Static Mixer

Komax is leading the way in the static mixer world by creating a more efficient model that industries have been asking for.  The engineers knew that the market needed a mixer that can handle slurries and low-viscosity material while always maintaining a uniform output that is the same in every batch.  This is why they created the Triple Action Static Mixer.

The triple-action mixer provides two-by-two division, cross current/impingement mixing, and back mixing, which provides accurate mixing in a shorter amount of time.  You can set the mixing to continuous or semi-continuous to meet the needs of the product production.  The results are predictable and assure high-quality products.

All industries need to have quality and predictable results but in medical laboratories, it is expected.  Quality control teams within labs are on top of production and products as any problems can be critical to human life.
