Admix Optifeed™ CX - Atmospheric Powder Induction

Admix Optifeed CX: Efficient Atmospheric Powder Induction for Chemical Processing

The Admix Optifeed CX is an atmospheric powder induction system designed for the rapid and efficient introduction of dry solids and/or liquid chemicals into mixing processes. This system utilizes vacuum conveying to draw powders into a liquid stream, ensuring quick wetting and minimizing dust, while improving operator safety and ergonomics.

Ideal for

Incorporating a wide range of chemical powders and liquids into mixing processes, improving efficiency, safety, and product quality.

Safety, Speed, & Efficiency

SAFETY: Minimize the risk of operator injury and accidents in your powder handling processes.

FAST: Achieve rapid ingredient addition, accelerating your batch cycles.

SHORTER TIMES: Reduce overall mix times, maximizing production throughput.

IMPROVED YIELDS: Optimize ingredient utilization and reduce waste for enhanced profitability.

How It Works: Rotosolver® Technology at the Heart of Optifeed CX

The Optifeed CX employs a powerful powder suction pump to create a vacuum, drawing powders from bags, drums, or bulk containers into the mixing chamber. The powder is introduced directly into the liquid stream. For materials that dissolve or suspend readily, the discharge can be sent directly to the next stage of the process. For materials requiring further dispersion, deagglomeration, or emulsification, the Optifeed CX can be integrated with a batch tank and high-shear mixer (like the Rotosolver CX), or with an inline high-shear mixer (Dynashear CX or Boston Shearmill CX) for continuous processing. It is important to note that precise volumetric control of the entrained material is inherently challenging with powder induction systems. They are, therefore, typically used as part of a batch mixing process for accurate recipe control.
