Wax Melting VesselNormally these are cylindrical vessels with either hemispherical or dished bottom vessels with loose type top lids. In some cases the top is also sealed by dished ends if clients demand for the same. Vessel are jacketed with either steam or electric heating as per clients requirements. Propeller type agitator is provided from the top and driven by suitable HP motor as per the vessel capacity. Bottom entry agitator are provided for closed type vessels. Wax is heated in the vessel bet 60 – 80’c as process demands and melted. This melted wax is later transferred into the manufacturing vessel. The vessel has a outlet valve fitted with din fittings for connection of suitable pipeline. A 100 mesh conical filter is provided for filtration of wax of any impurities

Water Heating VesselNormally these are cylindrical vessels with either hemispherical or dished bottom vessels with loose type top lids. In some cases the top is also sealed by dished ends if clients demand for the same. Vessel are jacketed with either steam or electric heating as per clients requirements. Propeller type agitator is provided from the top and driven by suitable HP motor as per the vessel capacity. Bottom entry agitator are provided for closed type vessels.

The vessel has a outlet valve fitted with din fittings for connection of suitable pipeline. A 100 mesh conical filter is provided for filtration of water of any impurities.

Manufacturing VesselManufacturing vessel is cylindrical vessels with either hemispherical or dished bottom vessels. Top of the vessel is also dished end. Silicon gasket is provided between vessel and top lid. Agitator assembly in the manufacturing vessel., Bottom entry Homogeniser & Top Dual speed anchor agitator is provided in the manufacturing vessel. Hydraulic lifting of the top lid is provided in manufacturing vessel for cleaning. Suitable nozzles, manholes, valves etc are provided in all the vessels. Vessel is also provided with jacket which can be used for both heating and cooling. However in manufacturing vessel mainly cooling is done. Manufacturing vessel can be subjected to full vacuum.

Storage VesselStorage vessel is simple vessel used to store ointments and creams etc. it is cylindrical type of vessel with conical bottom. Bottom valve is provided with din fittings to facilitate the pipeline connection. It is provided with loose top lid .

PumpsBump pump is a specially designed pump which is custom built as per capacity and requirements of the ointment plant. It is used to transfer ointment from the manufacturing vessel to the storage vessel.. The Rpm of the pump varies as per the viscocity of the ointment /cream. All contact parts are of S.S. 316 quality stainless steel.

Metering pump is also specially designed pump which is also commonly called as positive displacement pump. It is used to transfer ointment/ cream from the storage vessel to the filling machine hopper. There is a setting wheel in the metering pump wherein you can set the transfer rate as per the speed and capacity of your filling machine this prevents overflowing of the hopper and also complete automatic transfer. This pump is also has S..S 316 contact parts.Vacuum pump of suitable capacity is normally in clients scope or otherwise as specified. This pump is kept in utility section and the connection is done in the main vessel to the pump. The operation of this pump is provided in the control panel.

PipelineInterconnecting pipeline is provided for the plant as per the layout of the clients room size. All pipelines are electropolished from inside and outside. All joints are DIN standards quick openable types.

OthersAll vessels have CIP/ SIP nozzles & conical filters are provided at the discharge of the vessels. Entire plant is fully automatic and interconnected by suitable pipeline & requires only one operator for all the operations. Suitable working platform is provided for cleaning and maintainence. An integrated control panel fully automatic controlled by a PLC is provided.

Inline homogenisers are also provided for specific applications or where height constraints are there. Working platform made out of S.S. 304 is also provided for ease in working/ cleaning / operations etc.

Control Panel & AutomationControl panel is provided with all the starters, overload relays, push buttons, lamps, ckt breakers etc. all hardware required for automatic operation of the ointment plant is provided in the control panel.

OINTMENT / CREAM MANUFACTURING PLANTOINTMENT / CREAM MANUFACTURING PLANT

SALIENT FEATURES:SALIENT FEATURES:-- The Plant is designed to be operated only by one operator and one helper. All material transfers are done by vacuum or by transfer pumps. All the vessels are CGMP (paint free construction) The gaskets used are of silicon (food grade). All contact parts are of S.S. 304 quality material (SS316 provided on demand) &

finished to class 4B (Mirror) finish and are crevice free. The entries of all agitators are from top & High Speed Emulsifier from bottom or In-

line Emulsifier (as per customer choice). All vessels are suitable for internal pressure of 1 Kg. / Sq. cm. and hence can be

sterilized. All pipes, pipe fittings and valves are of SS304 / SS316 (as per customer

requirement) seamless quality, internally electro polished, with tri-clover ended joints.

The entire plant is equipped with CIP & SIP connections, so that customer can use these facilities, if have CIP & SIP equipment.

All values of temperature & time of the plant are indicated digitally on the control panel. Ampere indicates on Ampere meters.

A micro processor based automatic operating plant can be designed as per requirement.

All the inlet & outlet connections are provided with tri clover joints, which are very easy for cleaning & replacement.
