Twister Handling
Machine overview
Enhancing the quality of your products.
Twister is a gravity transfer system designed to transfer powders, granules, tablets and capsules from a bin docking station to a processing or packaging machine in dust-tight conditions. It ensures slow product descent, minimising powder/granule de-mixing or tablet/capsule damage as much as possible.
Easily integrated with other equipment into solid dose processing lines, Twister allows product transfer in high containment and is highly flexible, typical of IMA Active handling systems.

Machine highlights
-
De-mixing avoided
Slow product descent to avoid product de-mixing or damage.
-
Safe transfer
Safety ensured by the double tube solutions.
-
Easy to clean
Easy maintenance and cleaning thanks to accurate design and smooth finishing.
-
Correct feeding
Presence sensor to control the correct feeding of the product.
Double protection for maximum safety
Safety is ensured by the double tube solution: a disposable polyethylene liner is in contact with the product while a transparent rigid pipe protects the liner and improves product containment.
