The CLM-8/16 menthol production machine manufactured by Globecore is designed for the production of menthol, which is widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food industry and household chemicals. Menthol is in demand due to its refreshing, antiseptic and aromatic properties.
The CLM-8/16 ensures an efficient menthol production process thanks to state-of-the-art technology. The plant is equipped with a system for precise control of parameters such as temperature, mixing speed and processing time. This allows to preserve all the beneficial properties of menthol and guarantee the high quality of the finished product. The automated control system makes the process convenient and simple, minimizing operator intervention.
The compact and clever design allows the plant to be easily integrated into existing production lines or used stand-alone. It is suitable for both large enterprises and small production halls. Energy efficiency and minimal maintenance requirements help to reduce operating costs.
