Gericke GMS 5000 ECD Multiflux Double Shaft Mixer
Precision in Powder Mixing
This video presents the Gericke GMS 5000 Multiflux Double Shaft Mixer. It highlights the mixer’s efficiency, hygienic design, and suitability for sensitive powder processing.
Consistent Quality, Gentle Handling
Gericke designed the GMS Multiflux mixer to deliver a high level of homogeneity in a short time. It blends fragile powders and micro‑ingredients gently.
The mixer uses two counter‑rotating mixing tools arranged horizontally to create a fluidized bed. This setup ensures rapid radial and axial distribution inside the batch.
The design targets a Froude Number of 1.1. At this level, centrifugal forces generate strong mixing action without harsh impact. Customers see mixing cycles complete in just a few minutes.
The 5000‑liter model handles up to 4000 liters of usable volume per batch.
Fast Cycle Times and Easy Access
The system allows up to sixteen mixing cycles per hour. This speed supports high throughput while maintaining product consistency.
Cleaning and maintenance work remain practical. A cantilevered design and a large swiveling front door grant full access to the mixing chamber. Operators can inspect, clean, or change tools with minimal effort.
Flexible Tooling for Diverse Materials
The mixer adapts to various process needs. You can integrate high-speed dispersion tools into the front door. These tools handle viscous liquids, break apart clumped particles, or evenly disperse additives.
The ECD version adds ease of maintenance with fully extractable rotors. The mixing unit slides out on rails, enabling fast dry cleaning. That supports operations handling allergens, flavors, or batches requiring hygienic validation.
