OptiMix 2.0

Driven by evolving customer expectations and stricter operational requirements, OptiMix 2.0 introduces targeted improvements in operator safety, hygiene, liquid application, system integration, installation, and transport. The result is a mixer that delivers the same outstanding mixing performance as OptiMix, while making daily operation safer, cleaner, and easier throughout the machine lifecycle.

• Improved operator safety

A patented outlet‑gate and sealing system allows gate adjustments and seal replacement without entering the mixer. This significantly reduces operator risk while increasing uptime and maintenance efficiency.

• Unmatched precision and hygiene

Our patented nozzle technology enables quick nozzle change without the need of shutting down the mixer, clean anti-drip feature makes cleaning easy and reduces cross-contamination between batches.

• Smarter inlet design, adapted to the application

The OptiMix 2.0 inlet section is designed around real process requirements. Where no inlet section is needed, the mixer can be delivered in a simplified configuration. Reducing system complexity and investment cost while maintaining the proven OptiMix mixing performance.

• Compact design for cost-effective transport and installation

With the new OptiMix 2.0 design, the pre‑bin, mixer, surge‑bin, and inlet section are engineered to fit into a single container. This enables customers to order a complete, fully matched system as one package: simplifying logistics, reducing transport costs, and ensuring fast, reliable installation from day one.
