Notes to answerer
Asker: Yes, I checked the Novinox website, although the english isn't great, they seem to prefer the term "drum mixer" although the drum is actually rotated and there is no internal mixing (that's in a previous step) - I've seen this used at Novartis but never thought to ask the Italian techies what they call it in English
