Advanced system for the preparation of solutions in industrial dry cleaning
Efficiency in the dyeing process directly depends on the precision in the preparation of colorants and auxiliaries. TecnoMix is EAS's solution designed to automate color cooking, ensuring that each blend strictly meets recipe and colorant family parameters.
This system not only optimizes preparation time, but eliminates human variability, ensuring exact repeatability in each production batch.
Optimize your dye production with one state-of-the-art textile kitchen
The implementation of TecnoMix in the textile production chain directly addresses critical inefficiencies that compromise profitability and safety in the preparation of solutions.
- Precise and uniform mixes: You will always have the perfect color mix ready, with the same consistency, following the exact parameters of the recipe that allows you to repeat the process consistently.
- Integrated barcode: TecnoMix incorporates a barcode confirmation system, making it easier to scan the recipe to be processed.
- Automatic cleaning system: It integrates precise self-cleaning cycles after each preparation allowing the colorful kitchen to maintain a constant production rate.
- Advanced security system: Its lid with automatic opening allows you to work with greater safety and ergonomics, guaranteeing safety in the plant.
Automatic dye preparations with high precision.
TecnoMix is integrated into the plant as an intelligent solution center, designed under standards of high durability and precision. It consists of
Up to 3 dissolution tanks with capacity available in 250, 500 and 750 liters made of AISI-316L stainless steel with internal mirror effect finish and safety cap. These tanks incorporate an agitator with speed control by a frequency converter and a state-of-the-art product filling and transfer valve system.
AISI-304 stainless steel electric cabinet with integrated Atlantis PCT-315 controller, acoustic and light alarm and barcode.
Modular Configuration
Expandable system in number of tanks according to the volumetric needs of the plant.
Management through 15” Screen
Intuitive touch interface for full control of mixing and cleaning cycles thanks to the built-in Atlantis PCT-315.
TecnoDos support
Automatic reception capacity for chemical products from centralized dosing systems.
Integrate it with InfoTint for one total operational optimization
The operating power of TecnoMix reaches its maximum performance when integrated with InfoTint, the comprehensive production management software developed by EAS. This connection eliminates information silos between the laboratory, color kitchen and dyeing machines. They are transmitted directly to TecnoMix. The operator does not need to enter data manually; The system automatically recognizes the parameters of the active production order, and the operator validates it using the barcode when entering the dyes, which guarantees a complete and error-free transfer of information.
- Real Time Synchronization: InfoTint coordinates the preparation times of TecnoMix with the availability and status of the dyeing machines, optimizing just-in-time flow.
- Direct Machine Shipping: Once the dissolution is completed and validated by the system, the mixture is automatically sent to the corresponding machine, ensuring that the product arrives at the exact moment of the dyeing cycle.
- Remote Monitoring: From the InfoTint interface, production managers can monitor the status of preparations in TecnoMix without needing to be present in the plant.
Traceability Bidirectional
The integration allows every milliliter of product and every gram of dye used in TecnoMix to be automatically reported to InfoTint inventory. This generates a detailed batch history that includes:
- Real Consumption vs. Theoretical: Immediate identification of deviations.
- Time Record: Analysis of bottlenecks in the preparation phase.
- Quality Certification: Complete technical documentation for compliance with international textile traceability regulations.
Innovation in Sustainability: Use of Water-soluble Bags
TecnoMix incorporates technology compatible with the use of water-soluble bags for dye management. This method allows weighing to be introduced directly into the mixing tank, offering critical operational advantages:
- Zero Waste: Total elimination of contaminated containers and traces of dust in the work environment.
- Weighing Accuracy: The heavy dye dissolves completely without loss due to adhesion in the transfer containers.
- Occupational Safety: Minimizes operator exposure to suspended particles and direct contact with chemicals.

Frequently Asked Questions about TecnoMix (FAQ)
This section resolves the most common technical queries to facilitate decision-making when updating your colored kitchen.
The TecnoMix system is modular and adapts to different production scales. Currently, we offer standard configurations with capabilities of 250, 500 and 750 liters. This variety allows the equipment to be sized according to the volume of its dyeing machines and the concentration of the usual recipes.
The integrity of each color is guaranteed by a programmable self-cleaning cycle after each shipment. The tank design, constructed of high-quality stainless steel, and agitation system eliminate dead spots where residue could remain, ensuring that the next batch maintains its absolute colorimetric purity.
Yes. TecnoMix is designed to work in total sync with TecnoDos (dosing system for liquid auxiliary products). The system can automatically receive the chemicals needed for dissolution, eliminating manual loading and ensuring the chemical/dye ratio is accurate based on the recipe.
TecnoMix is optimized for processing water-soluble bags, which allows the heavy dye to be introduced directly without opening the container. This not only ensures that 100% of the pigment reaches the mixture (avoiding shrinkage), but also keeps the plant environment free of dust and protects the respiratory health of operators.
The system incorporates a barcode reader required to start the process. TecnoMix will not activate the preparation cycle unless the scanned product code matches the work order issued by the management software, blocking any incorrect mixing attempts.
The equipment allows precise control of the temperature of the mixing water. This is critical for certain dyes that require specific thermal ranges for complete and stable dissolution, avoiding the formation of lumps or precipitates that could cause stains on the fabric.
Optimize your colorful kitchen with precision technology
Automation is the definitive step towards industry 4.0 in the textile sector. If you are looking to reduce dye consumption, improve the safety of your equipment and ensure the quality of your finishes, TecnoMix is the essential component of your infrastructure.
