Processed powder: Mallow powder with a bulk density of 0.5 kg/m³
Powder incorporator feeding system (powder/liquid mixer)
Manufacturing requirements:
- Mirror polished finish
- Pharmaceutical design
- All stainless steel construction
This installation concerns a pharmaceutical manufacturing line for the production of medicine dispensed in sticks.
The purpose of the installation is the vacuum conveying of mallow powder for liquid incorporation.
In the production room, the operator vacuums the stored mallow powder from drums using a suction cane. The cane is supplied with air via a conveyor hose connected to the cyclone and is used to manually vacuum the powder. The pneumatic conveying cyclofilter provides the vacuuming and reception of the powder.
This pneumatic supply also integrates flow aids positioned on the cyclofilter: pneumatic vibrator and vibrofluidizers.
The vacuum is carried out using a dry rotary blade vacuum pump which provides the necessary suction for transporting the mallow powder in the piping. The transfer is continuously carried out by vacuum to feed an incorporator/Triblender (high shear powder/liquid mixer) positioned downstream of the process.
An analog valve, positioned under the conveying cyclone, doses the product into the 50 liters buffer hopper. Two level probes are placed in this hopper to control the powder level to prevent overloading the triblender.
The cyclofilter is positioned on a raising/lowering system mounted on a wheeled chassis for mobility to the washing room. This handling trolley makes it possible to lower the transfer cyclone to an ergonomic height for washing.
The unit is equipped with a "Harting" type plug and pneumatic coupler for quick connection and disconnection of the flexible conveyor hose. The skid is driven by a Siemens S7 1200 PLC.
