The Pharma-Mek (photo) is a vacuum turboemulsifier suitable for processing liquid and creamy products, designed to meet the needs of the pharmaceutical industry. The Pharma-Mek has been designed and developed following hygiene and cleaning design guidelines, in order to ensure a high degree of cleaning and washability, incorporating inclined surfaces and sophisticated steam-sterilization systems. The machine features Smart TC, a patented intelligent system, which promotes energy savings during the heating and cooling stages, as well as precise control of processing stages, ensuring greater repeatability. In addition, the presence of high-efficiency sprayballs and a fully automatic clean-in-place (CIP) system allows optimization of washwater consumption. — Marchesini Group, West Caldwell, N.J.
