High shear impact mixer for agglomeration and dispersion
Achieve precise homogeneity and efficient agglomeration with a high-speed, high-shear impact mixer designed to handle cohesive powders and slurries, ensuring optimal end-product quality across batch operations.
Mixes and Agglomerates Cohesive Powders and Liquids
The Cyclomix High Shear Impact Mixer from Hosokawa Micron is engineered for professionals in food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries requiring precision mixing and agglomeration. Featuring a conical vessel with a central high-speed rotor, it efficiently disperses cohesive powders and liquids, achieving superior homogeneity with ultra-short processing times. Its design incorporates centrifugal forces to elevate and mix materials, while an impact blade manages particle size distribution, making it ideal for producing products like instant soup powder, DPI capsules, and toner cartridges. Operating with volumes from 100 ml to 2000 liters, the Cyclomix enables effective heat transfer for precise thermal processing and agglomeration. It offers advanced automation with PLC integration, ensuring seamless batch operations. Built with options for stainless steel construction, it supports stringent compliance with industry standards. With a focus on maintenance ease, optional cleaning systems facilitate quick, contamination-free operations, backed by customizable engineering support for unique production requirements.
