High-shear mixer for emulsions, dispersions, and foams
In industries requiring consistent emulsions, dispersions, and foams, achieving uniformity and stability is critical. Traditional mixing methods often fail to meet the precise control needed for products sensitive to heat accumulation, such as eggs and latex.
Achieve uniform emulsions and dispersions efficiently
The CR Mixer by SPX Flow employs patented high-shear mixing technology to generate stable and uniform emulsions, dispersions, and foams. Combining product recycling and adjustable shear action, the mixer allows control over the number of passes the product makes through the mixing zone by varying rotor speed and controlling back pressure at the discharge port. This mechanism enables precise, fast, and economical mixing, which is particularly advantageous for heat-sensitive products. The mixer supports various product types, including liquid-liquid, liquid-gas, and liquid-solids. It can be utilized in continuous in-line operations or side-arm sequence use in batch operations, offering versatility across different processing needs.
