3.2 UNGUATOR® Assortment
Appart from the UNGUATOR® Standard Mixing Blade (SMB), the UNGUATOR® Disposable
Blade (Disp. Blade) and the UNGUATOR® Jars, the UNGUATOR® Assortment provides
additional and useful components. These include dosing aids such as the UNGUATOR®
Varionozzles and UNGUATOR® Applicators, removal or transfer aids such as the
UNGUATOR® Spindle, the UNGUATOR® Coupling and the patented AirDynamic® Pumpball
System. All UNGUATOR® products are compatible with all UNGUATOR® Mixing devices.
3.2.1 UNGUATOR® Mixing blade (MB)
The UNGUATOR® Standard Mixing Blade and the UNGUATOR® Disposable Blade are
designated as UNGUATOR® MBs. The UNGUATOR® MBs are steadily guided up and down
inside the UNGUATOR® Jar. Their special design results in a tight contact between the
mixing blade and the inside wall of the UNGUATOR® Jar, which serves, primarily, for
comminuting the substances during the mixing process. Additionally forced mixing in
the whole mixing unit is achieved through the shape and vibration of substances while
preparing the ointment.
The lubricating effect of the ointment and substances generally protects the UNGUATOR®
Jars and the UNGUATOR® MB against abrasion. Discolorations of the mixing blade are
mostly irreversible and therefore harmless. All UNGUATOR® MBs are dishwasher safe.
UNGUATOR® Standard mixing blade (SMB)
UNGUATOR® SMBs are adjusted to the size of each
individual UNGUATOR® Jar. While the UNGUATOR®
SMBs for 100 and 200 ml and for the 300 and 500 ml
jars have the same mixing blade diameter, their shaft
length differs. This must be taken into consideration,
particulary when using the UNGUATOR® e/s and the
UNGUATOR® 2100, since the use of the wrong lenght
may cause problems with the automated stroke.
Always make sure the UNGUATOR® MB used is the right lenght, and that it is clean prior
use. (e.g. with isopropanol 70%).
The UNGUATOR® SMB is suitable for the production of all recipes. For suspension
ointments and glass cleaning operations, we recommend the use of the UNGUATOR®
Disp. Blade.
