L Series 50L is suitable for pilot research, process development and small-scale production. They are designed for the rapid, efficient blending of powders and granular materials, and feature a full-length top cover opening for maximum access. The interrupted spiral ribbon agitator removes easily for cleaning and hygiene. Available in a variety of sizes from 35L to 400L (1-1/4 cu. ft. – 14 cu. ft.) and constructed in either carbon steel or stainless steel depending on the application. www.kemutecusa.com

Designed for increased shear, Model CDA-25 features dry-running Double FlexiLip seals on both agitator shafts suitable for vacuum operation up to 29.5" Hg and includes a portable mixing vessel with heating/cooling jacket. The dual-shaft mixer’s rotor and slotted stator mixing head, also often called a homogenizer, affords more advanced deagglomeration and emulsification capabilities. Complementing the high shear mixer, a two-wing anchor promotes bulk flow and uniform batch temperature. www.mixers.com

The company, along with ABM Equipment, has introduced a patent-pending 2-stage fluid bed dryer that can dry up to 10,000 pounds of cannabis per hour with minimal cannabinoid loss. Ideal for batch or continuous drying of cannabis biomass, the VIBRO-BED fluid bed dryer uses heat as an accelerant rather than a primary driver for evaporation, burning off less CBD than alternate technologies. www.kason.com

Model MX-5-S316L is designed to achieve total uniformity in 2 to 3 minutes, regardless of disparities in the bulk density, particle size, flow characteristics or ratio of batch ingredients down to one part per million. For dry materials it is equally efficient down to 15% (0.75 cu. ft./21 ℓ) of rated capacity, satisfying varied production requirements, while allowing small-scale testing prior to blending at full capacity or scaling up to high-capacity rotary batch mixers. www.munsonmachinery.com

VARODRY HD/O2 version is a compact all-rounder that is made to be easy to install and integrate into systems. With stainless steel exhaust and integrated purge module, the pump is suitable for rough coating, drying and regeneration applications.

First unveiled on the company’s Raptor checkweighing series, the tight-fitting conveyor features a quick release and disassembly of the deck, belt, motor and rollers. During the sanitization process, operators unclip and disconnect the conveyor motor and lift out the entire assembly. Belt design also eliminates noise and unwanted vibration, which affects metal detection sensitivity and checkweighing accuracy. www.fortresstechnology.com
