This Fryma AG Rheinfelden VME-20 is a mixer and blender — sometimes referred to as a process vessel or mixing kettle — designed for blending, dispersing, and homogenising materials under controlled pressure and vacuum conditions. Fryma AG Rheinfelden is a well-established Swiss manufacturer recognised for precision processing equipment used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries, particularly where closed, hygienic mixing environments are required.
The vessel is constructed from stainless steel grade ), making it suitable for corrosive or sensitive process media. It has a nominal working volume of 20 litres, with a maximum capacity of 38 litres, and the vessel body measures 365 mm in diameter by 370 mm in height. The unit is configured as a closed, vacuum-capable processing vessel, rated for a working pressure of 2.5 bar, with the jacket independently rated at 3 bar. The jacket allows for temperature control of the process contents through heating or cooling media.
The machine is equipped with three distinct agitation systems. An anchor stirrer with scrapers is driven by a dedicated 0.18 kW motor, ensuring consistent wall contact and preventing product build-up. A dissolver stirrer is powered by a motor of approximately 1.1 kW running at approximately 2,840 rpm, providing high-shear dispersion. A homogeniser is also fitted, enabling fine emulsification and particle size reduction within the same vessel. This combination of agitation technologies makes the unit well suited to multi-stage processing without transferring product between machines.
The vessel features a flat top with a cover, and two top connections measuring 33 mm and 34.5 mm in diameter respectively, alongside a 39 mm diameter outlet at the base. The unit is mounted on legs, giving a total height of 1.9 metres, and occupies a floor footprint of approximately 1.1 by 0.6 metres. An integrated switch is included. The machine is offered in used condition, located in Barneveld, Netherlands, and carries serial number F70.4795, manufactured in 1980.
