Dual-Shaft Mixer

These Dual-Shaft Mixers enable efficient powder dispersion and convenient batch temperature control in the manufacture of low to high viscosity formulations. Two heavy-duty independently-driven agitators, a high speed disperser and a two-wing anchor, deliver a wide range of shear levels and flow patterns that can adapt to the varying rheologies of solutions, pastes, gels, suspensions and slurries all throughout the mixing cycle. The sawtooth disperser blade draws solids into a powerful vortex and disintegrates dry agglomerates as the low speed anchor continuously stirs the batch. This combination of mixing actions ensures a very thorough turnover – fresh product is constantly coming in contact with the disperser and materials around the periphery are continuously being scraped off the vessel surfaces. Many sizes from 1 through 4000 gallons come standard. A range of built-in control options are available, from simple variable frequency drives to PLC recipe systems.
