Products needing the highest shear levels will benefit from the SHEAR-max high shear mixer which is capable of mixing and efficiently pumping product with its hybrid impeller design.
The SHEAR-max will disperse, dissolve, emulsify, de-agglomerate, homogenize, or simply blend. Engineered for single pass or batch style processing of liquids and semi-solids this high shear mixer is extremely effective at hydrating and dispersing powders. The innovative wedge style rotor allows solids into the shear zone while efficiently employing motor horsepower. The single or dual stage stator provides superior clean-ability and tight rotor / stator tolerances.
