PROC-X ENGINEERING TOOLS

Processing Calculators

Fast preliminary calculations for mixing, milling, dosing, thermal processing, bulk handling and packaging. Built for process engineers, project teams and production managers.

ENGINEERING FIRST

Calculate the process. Then engineer the machine.

These tools are intended for preliminary planning. Material behaviour, safety factors, scale-up, utilities and equipment geometry still need Proc-X engineering review.

QUANTUMX

Mixer Working Volume

Estimate mixer working volume and nominal total vessel volume from batch mass, bulk density and target fill percentage.

QUANTUMX

Mixer Fill Level

Calculate the percentage of total mixer volume occupied by the working batch.

QUANTUMX

Batch Throughput

Convert batch size and cycle time into hourly and daily production capacity.

QUANTUMX / AIS

Liquid Addition

Calculate liquid addition mass from a dry batch weight and percentage addition.

AIS

Micro-Ingredient Dosing

Convert ppm, percent or g/kg into the exact minor-ingredient addition for a batch.

AIS

Bulk Density Converter

Convert common bulk-density units used in process equipment sizing.

AIS

Silo / Hopper Capacity

Estimate usable volume and stored product mass for cylindrical or rectangular vessels.

QUANTUMX

Moisture Removal & Drying Load

Estimate dry solids, final product mass, water to remove and average evaporation rate.

QUANTUMX / EMULXION

Heating / Cooling Duty

Estimate sensible heat load and average thermal duty from product mass, specific heat and temperature change.

PROC-X FOOD

Cook & Chill Cooling Load

Estimate refrigeration duty required to cool a batch from cook temperature to the target chilled temperature.

EMULXION

Tank Volume

Estimate cylindrical tank volume plus a configurable allowance for heads or additional geometry.

QUANTUMX / EMULXION

Agitator / Rotor Tip Speed

Calculate tip speed from rotating element diameter and RPM.

DP MILLS

Mesh ↔ Micron Reference

Approximate US sieve mesh opening in microns. Use as a reference only; final PSD should be defined by particle analysis.

PRECIXION

Packaging Output

Estimate hourly and daily package output from nominal line speed and expected operating efficiency.
