AVA is a small to medium-sized enterprise with mixing and drying as corecompetence. AVA has clear structures and a size permitting to react flexiblyto the needs and demands of its clients.Profound knowledge of process engineering and many years experienceguarantee successfully executed projects.

AVA cone mixers and dryers with their typical single or double helix havebeen developed in the late nineties as a solution to the problems frequentlyencountered with rotating auger cone dryers. One is the danger of productcontamination from gears and bearings in the process area, the other theirsusceptibility to malfunction and the resulting high maintenance costs.As an additional benefit came markedly shortened mixing and drying timesand improved cleanability.The helical agitator processes dry or humid, free flowing or sticky bulk materials, filter cakes, slurries and liquids of various viscosity. The cone mixers areideally suited for nearly all mixing operations. With suitable heating theyserve as dryers, reactors or evaporators.

Minimal contamination riskShaft seal and bearings outsideof process area

Mixing intensity can be adaptedto product propertiesDepending on agitator speedand design one can achieve agentle rearrangement or athorough blending.

Short drying timeA permanent blending and anintensive contact of the productswith the heated wall result in asuperior heat transition.

Short mixing timeThe entire product volume par-ticipates in the blending process.

The dryer can operate as anevaporatorWith small design changes theagitator is ideal for the concen-tration of liquids and slurries.

Increased drying and evapora-ting capacity with a heatedagitatorThe agitator can be heated anddesigned for very high levels ofevaporation.

Complete dischargeThe conical shape, a largedischarge opening and a designwithout lower bearing facilitatea complete discharge.

Easy cleaningMulti-layer, big radius weldingson agitator and body facilitatecleaning. The agitator turningat high speed supports theaction of CIP cleaning nozzles.

Reliable and easy to maintainThe simple design minimises theoccurrence of mechanical pro-blems and allows maintenancewith in-house personnel.
