Chemineer has a new Xpress range of top-entering mixers, which has enhanced the quality and efficiency at Tyson Foods - world leader in the production and marketing of beef, pork and chicken
Working with its joint venture company in India, GMM Pfaulder, this latest order follows the successful installation of a similar reactor supplied by Chemineer to the same Mumbai-based petrochemical company in 1997.
Typically operating at 37rpm, the Chemineer reactor has a 70KW drive and double flight helix on a 1:1 pitch.
The unit is able to withstand temperatures of 2600C.
In addition to this major new order, Chemineer is also currently supplying reactors to other regions of India, mixing equipment for a new desalination plant in Saudi Arabia, and a range of agitators to Spain and Belgium.
Neil Davies, Operations Manager at Chemineer, commented: "Despite the astronomic rise in world steel prices, these latest orders clearly demonstrate that we can truly compete in the global market.
"We have a depth of mixing technology in which we are recognised for our ability to provide highly efficient, cost-effective, long-term mixing solutions".
