A SS mixing vessel is a specialized container designed for the purpose of mixing and blending various food ingredients to create a homogeneous mixture. These vessels are crucial in the liquid manufacturing process, where precise control of mixing parameters is essential to ensure the quality and consistency of the final product.
Key Features
Material Selection
Food industry mixing vessels are typically constructed from materials that meet stringent regulatory standards, such as stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloys. These materials ensure that the vessel does not react with or contaminate the pharmaceutical ingredients.
Design
The vessel’s design is crucial for efficient mixing and cleaning. It often includes features such as agitators, baffles, and jackets for temperature control. The design should also facilitate easy cleaning and sterilization to maintain aseptic conditions.
Agitation System
The mixing process relies on an agitation system, which can include various types of impellers or agitators to achieve the desired mixing intensity. The choice of agitation system depends on the viscosity, density.
