Satisfied customer – quick support and optimization on site

Service on site, around the clock, seven days a week – something the HEINKEL Group demonstrated perfectly with a leading international customer from the pharmaceutical industry. Process engineering adaptations carried out by a competitor on a HEINKEL inverting filter centrifuge led to a stop in production – HEINKEL localized the error on site in next to no time and got the facility up and running again.

Comprehensive modernization project with new control system

The project requirements were high: ATEX conformity, compliance with the guidelines for being awarded CE marking, a new S7 control system as well as a modern ball segment valve were the objectives in a project of a leading international customer from the pharmaceutical industry. Since the start of the project, the HEINKEL Drying and Separation Group was able to successfully implement the objectives within eight months.

Efficient heel break system from COMBER for heel-free product yield

Test results exceed the expectations: customer opts for a system solution

A contained system consisting of a centrifuge and dryer as well as a successful test series were the decisive criteria for a new customer in the food industry when choosing the HEINKEL Group.

COMBER Pressofiltro® Filter Dryer for aseptic API and fine chemicals

For the manufacture of sterile parenterals, i.e. substances which are intended for injection, infusion or implantation into the human or animal body, the issue of sterilization of process equipment is of high priority. In addition to a local cleaning of a process plant, also known as Clean in Place (CIP), many pharmaceutical processes require therefore a subsequent sterilization (sterilization in place). For example this can be ensured by steam sterilization. In this respect all product contacted surfaces should be coated safely and for a defined period with pressurized steam of at least 121 °C.

Reliable, efficient and precise: The new generation F-type inverting filter centrifuges

The newest generation of the F-type inverting filter centrifuges from HEINKEL convinces with efficiency, user-friendliness and refined design. The F series is particularly suitable for fragile, difficult-to-filter products with a fine crystal structure and which need to achieve a high degree of purity and low residual moisture.

JONGIA´s highly efficient systems

For the manufacture of paints and lacquers JONGIA offers its dual mixing system consisting of an anchor type mixer combined with a fast running dissolver for mixing in additives. This combination can replace some of the commonly used expensive “column type” mixing systems. The anchor mixer keeps the mixture homogeneous and is fed by the fast running mixer. A single or double special design multi counter-flow element ensures perfect homogeneity.
