Machines · Planetary mixers & Planetary dissolvers

Homogeneous down to the toughest mass.

Planetary orbiting tools reach virtually every area of the mixing chamber, right up to the highest viscosities. Optionally with an integrated dissolver for dispersing in a single operation.

Operating principle

Planetary orbiting tools

The mixing tools rotate on their own axis while travelling through the vessel on a planetary path, so virtually every point of the mass is reached.

Reach virtually every point of the batch

Defined clearances to wall and bottom, complete mixing.

Kneading and dispersing combined

Planetary tools plus dissolver (LPMD): homogenise and finely disperse in one vessel.

Up to the highest viscosities

For highly viscous, pasty and thixotropic masses.

Features & Equipment

Designed for reproducible results.

Dead-space minimisation

Precise clearances, virtually complete emptying, easy cleaning.

Dissolver combination

Mixing and dispersing in one vessel (LPMD).

Vacuum degassing

Pore-free masses under vacuum.

Temperature control

Double jacket, heatable and coolable for precise process control.

Interchangeable vessels

Mobile vessels for short set-up times and parallel batches.

Formulation & Data

PLC control, formulation management and data logging.

Series

A design for every task.

From laboratory to production

One principle in many sizes.

What is validated in the Technical Center is transferred 1:1 to the production plant, scale-up safe.

01 · Laboratory system

Material trials from the smallest quantities, same tool geometry as the full-scale system.

02 · Technical Center

Pilot-scale testing under real conditions, documented.

03 · Production plant

Transfer of the validated parameters for reproducible batches.

Custom versions

The planetary mixer, designed for your process.

Based on the LPM, LPM-SP, LPMD, D and LPK series, we adapt tool, vessel and process technology to your mass, from laboratory to production.

Vacuum version
During the mixing process and also when the mixing tools are moved out of the vessel.
ATEX version
Various classifications for demanding and potentially explosive processes.
Integration of feeding and filling systems

Process reliability

Monitored and controllable

Homogeneity

Uniform mass up to the highest viscosities.

Reproducibility

Every batch identical, documented and validatable.
