Performance testing machine

automaticmaterialsfor the pharmaceutical industry

The recently enhanced Marion Test Center is fundamental to our entire approach to creating game-changing value for customers. Our goal is to help clients confirm the viability of their mixtures and processes before bringing them into production. With a full range of industrial mixers and our WaveMix™ thermal processing technology, we can verify and optimize your mixing, drying, and heating processes before you commit to an installation in your facility. Thorough testing is at the heart of our commitment to deliver best-in-class performance. • Multiple ingredient testing: Some food mixes can have dozens of unique ingredients to achieve that perfect taste and aroma. Ingredients must be added in the right sequence to achieve superior consistency throughout the batch, requiring multiple tests to get it right. • Analog testing: For very expensive materials, our engineers can run trials on materials with similar properties, but lower cost. Recently, a nutraceutical and dietary supplements company found that, in a microbial reduction process, their materials were sticking to the sides of the machine in their production line. By running eight different tests using a similar, but less expensive material, we were able to adjust the thermal processing parameters and provide a significant reduction in sidewall caking. • Precision testing: For chemicals, pharmaceuticals, baby formulas, and other highly precise mixes, it is important to ensure that every mix is perfect. Running tests on new formulations and mixes allows processors to try new mixes and tweak formulations before running large batches.
