Ointment Manufacturing Plant

Cap : 100 kgs. upto 3000 kgs.

Ointment Manufacturing Plant is specially designed to enable the two most critical features in these type of equipments :

  • Totally untouched automatic features
  • Negligible vacuum drop during mixing & blending. Needless to add that this also provides additional benefit of effective manpower utilisation.

Optionals

  • Bottom entry of the main impeller shaft to ensure totally cleanable systems that allow for frequent product changeovers and eliminates the need for product wise plant dedication.
  • Full process automation with facility of programmable logic controllers.
Basic Operations
  • All waxes and oils are dissolved in the wax phase vessel separately
  • All aqueous phase materials are added in the water phase vessel and processed separately
  • Both phase vessels are jacketed and are provided with motor driven propeller type of agitators which facilitate thorough mixing
  • Once the phases are ready, they are transferred to the main Ointment manufacturing vessel by opening respective valves (see schematic drawing). This transfer takes place through filters and pipelines due to the vacuum created within the main vessel with the aid of a pump.
  • The Ointment Manufacturing vessel is provided with anchor type of stirrer along with Teflon scrapper at the ends, The agitator is driven by dual speed motor. A built-in high speed emulsifier ensures proper emulsification of the ointment, The MIMIC feature in the control panel controls the time of emu Isification with the aid of timers.
  • The finished product is transferred to storage vessels by means of the bump pump.
  • Transfer from storage vessel to the filling hoppers is achieved by means of reciprocating metering pumps at the required rate.
  • Special scrappers are provided for transfer of the complete product and to avoid wastage.
  • The system is very useful for creams, lotions, gels, shampoos, tooth pastes and such preparations.
