Each manufacturing process is unique. The properties of raw materials, production constraints, regulatory requirements, performance targets and changing market conditions call for equipment capable of adapting precisely to each application.
At RMC Marc Guittard, the design of a mixer or mixing plant is never based on a standardised solution. Each project begins with an in-depth analysis of the customer’s needs, their manufacturing process and the expected performance. This approach enables us to design perfectly sized equipment capable of ensuring consistent mixing quality, long-term reliability and optimal integration into the production environment.
Drawing on the expertise of its in-house design office, RMC Marc Guittard develops customised solutions for the most demanding industries: chemicals, food and drink, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, elastomers, polymers, engineering materials and many other sectors using high- or very high-viscosity products.
The RMC Marc Guittard design office brings together technicians and engineers specialising in the design of industrial mixers, mixing equipment and process solutions for high-viscosity products.
This multidisciplinary team is involved from the very earliest stages of the project to analyse technical constraints, understand production objectives and define the solutions best suited to each client’s needs.
The proximity between the design office, the manufacturing workshops and the commissioning teams enable ongoing collaboration, ensuring seamless coordination between the design, manufacture and operation of the equipment.
Before any design phase begins, the RMC teams carry out a comprehensive study of the parameters influencing the mixing process.
This analysis considers:
This approach enables the design of equipment that precisely meets the expected performance criteria whilst anticipating future developments in industrial processes.
The design of a double-arm mixer (Z blade mixer or Sigma Kneader mixer) is not limited to simple mechanical sizing.
It is based on a thorough understanding of mixing phenomena, material flow, heat transfer, mechanical stresses and the interactions between the various components of the system.
Thanks to several decades of experience, the teams at RMC Marc Guittard have a thorough understanding of the specific requirements of manufacturing processes involving highly viscous, abrasive, corrosive, filled or shear-sensitive products.
This expertise enables us to guide each client towards the most appropriate technical solution for their specific application.
Each piece of equipment is subject to in-depth studies to optimise its performance and reliability.
The studies carried out by the design office focus on:
Each solution is developed in accordance with safety, quality and industrial performance requirements.
The design office relies on computer-aided design tools that enable each piece of equipment to be developed with a high degree of precision.
In particular, the teams produce:
This comprehensive documentation ensures full traceability for every project and facilitates future maintenance, refurbishments or upgrades to the equipment.
Beyond mixing performance, each piece of equipment is designed to offer:
This approach helps to optimise the overall cost of equipment ownership and extend its service life.
Each project is developed in tight cooperation with the customer’s technical teams.
This collaborative approach enables us to validate technological choices, consider the specific constraints of the production site and ensure that the industrial objectives are perfectly aligned with the equipment’s performance.
Throughout the project, the RMC Marc Guittard teams remain attentive to your needs in order to provide prompt technical answers, suggest improvements where relevant and guarantee the success of every installation.
Designing an industrial mixer is, above all, about understanding a process, anticipating its constraints and devising a solution capable of supporting changes in production over the long term.
Thanks to the expertise of its design office, its experience in mixing processes and its capacity for innovation, RMC Marc Guittard designs reliable, high-performance and scalable equipment that meets the requirements of industries worldwide.
Each project is unique. Every solution is designed to offer our customers the best balance between performance, reliability, safety and the long-term value of their investment.
