In the dynamic landscape of food and drug manufacturing, efficiency and precision are paramount. METO Systems takes center stage with its innovative solutions, specifically designed to meet the diverse needs of industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, and fine chemicals. This article explores METO’s stationary column lifts with drum inverters, highlighting the versatility of these units that can be floor-mounted, ceiling, or wall-supported.
Stationary Column Lifts with Drum Inversion
Stationary column lifts are known for their precision in positioning and docking bins, equipment, or inverted drums, making them ideal for the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical sectors. They can precisely lift, lower, and position-sensitive equipment with repeatability while ensuring personnel safety as well. In environments requiring controlled processes, stationary column lifts provide exceptional stability, reducing the risk of errors and potential contamination. Stationary lifts can be adapted to suit different production lines and workflows.
Dust-free powder transfer with METO’s Drum Inverter
A standout feature in METO Systems’ lineup is the drum inverter option. Widely used across industries for transferring powders, pellets, and tablets from drums, this option ensures controlled and “dustless” material transfer. Specifically designed for clean environments, METO’s stainless-steel drum inverters provide a closed and controlled transfer process.
Standard or customized drum cradles capture the drum to be lifted and inverted. Most cradles can accommodate multiple-sized diameter drums, making them versatile when multiple ingredients are used in the process.
Discharge Control Valves
METO Systems offers a diverse range of discharge valves tailored for specific Pharmaceutical, Food, Cosmetic, and Fine Chemical applications. These valves, available in both manual and automated configurations, play a crucial role in controlling the flow of products.
Two prominent valve options worth exploring are the Butterfly Valve and the Rotary Valve:
Butterfly Valves: Known for their versatility, they can be used to regulate material flow. These valves find applications in various industries due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of maintenance.
Rotary Valves: Ideal for metering and regulating the flow of powders, rotary valves feature a rotating or oscillating vane that ensures a consistent and controlled material discharge. Their precision makes them a preferred choice for applications demanding higher accuracy.
METO Systems’ stationary column lifts, equipped with drum inverter options and a wide array of discharge valves, offer a holistic solution for industries with stringent material handling requirements. By prioritizing efficiency, cleanliness, and control, METO Systems continues to be a reliable partner for enhancing the productivity of manufacturing processes.
