Enhanced stock control
Active ingredients in cosmetic manufacturing are high-cost and must be stored and monitored properly to minimize wastage. Multiple technologies are required to measure stock, such as hydrostatic pressure sensors, radar level and capacitance measurement.
Our expertise in the field
Our integrated technologies offer modern and reliable solutions for the management of stock inventory and the reduction of waste, with easy maintenance and real time monitoring.
- Optimize measurement with instrumentation for each application
- Protect storage processes against overfill and leaks with our Liquiphant FTL50H
- Reduce waste and bring down costs with smart instrumentation
Accurate mixing
Mixing is the most demanding step in cosmetics manufacturing and key in determining the quality of the final product. Accurate addition and mixing of raw materials, as well as efficient use of energy and water, is vital to minimize waste and reduce costs. Handling oil-based and sticky products with various viscosities and densities can also pose significant challenges.
Our expertise in the field
Our engineering processes and smart, reliable instrumentation enable accurate and optimal mixing to help ensure the best product quality.
- Rely on Promass I for accurate flow and viscosity measurement
- Use Liquiphant and Liquipoint FTW33 for safe and smooth processes with sticky products
- Minimize energy losses with energy monitoring and management solutions
Precise filling and dosing
Ensuring that the exact amount of product is filled every time accurately and continuously is indispensable in the cosmetics production process. Furthermore, mechanical filling and dosing components can bear high maintenance costs and be unreliable, triggering lengthy process interruptions.
Our expertise in the field
Our Coriolis flowmeters bring high and dependable accuracy to your batch and filling processes.
- Integrate digital communications protocols
- Take tight control of the entire filling process
- Save costs by avoiding mechanical instrument components
