This Herbst HRV-15 HO is a planetary mixer and blender — a type of processing equipment also commonly referred to as a planetary mixer — designed for mixing, blending, and kneading materials in food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and related industries. Herbst is a recognised manufacturer of mixing and blending equipment, building machines suited to precision processing applications where hygiene, containment, and controlled mixing conditions are important.
The machine is constructed entirely in stainless steel and centres on a closed stirring vessel with a dished bottom, giving a working volume of 15 litres. The vessel measures 280 mm in diameter by 280 mm deep and is fitted with a bottom outlet of 25 mm diameter. A scraper is included, and the unit comes complete with its pan. The planetary mixing action is driven by a motor rated at 0.12 kW, wired for 220–255 / 380–440 volt supply, and the machine carries serial number 3103.
A notable feature of this unit is its thermal and pressure capability. The vessel is equipped with a jacket and electric heating rated at 3 kW, allowing the contents to be brought to process temperature. Vacuum processing is also possible, supported by an included vacuum pump, making the machine suitable for applications requiring degassing or vacuum mixing. A homogeniser is fitted as well, rated at 900 watts, extending the machine's capability to fine emulsification and dispersion work.
Handling and operation are facilitated by hydraulic lifting, which raises and lowers the mixing head, and the entire unit is mounted on wheels for ease of repositioning within a facility. Switchgear is included. The machine stands 1.9 metres in total height and is located in Barneveld, Netherlands, having been manufactured in 2000.
