UCP 25 : High-viscosity continuous kneader for small volumes or laboratory use
The UCP-25 (Ultimate Continuous Processor) is an industrial kneader designed for formulation and screening. It offers laboratories and manufacturers the ideal solution for continuous processes involving high-viscosity materials. This industrial kneading solution for high-viscosity mixtures combines several stages in a single process: continuous mixing, homogenisation, kneading, micro-kneading, shearing, chemical reaction, degassing, purification, crystallisation, baking, compacting, densification, disintegration and grinding.
This industrial kneading solution creates a perfectly homogeneous mixture with the right rheology for the application. Thanks to its design featuring a modular paddle arrangement, it enables you to explore a multitude of combinations. It is the ideal solution for improving the efficiency of your formulations and processes.

ADVANTAGES OF THE UCP 25 KNEADER
Performance
Two co-rotating axes for constant homogenisation and guaranteed product quality.
Robustness
A robust design enabling continuous processing of highly viscous materials.
Abrasion and corrosion resistance
Small gaps between components to prevent material build-up.
Flexibility
Multiple infeed and degassing points to optimise recipe operations and remove unwanted constituents. An infeed section tailored to each application, capable of feeding a wide range of particle sizes and low bulk density components. The double jacket enables temperature regulation for multiple industrial processes and quality optimisation.
Savings
High torque without pressure, reducing energy and maintenance costs.
