High shear mixer for dairy and personal care products

Achieve consistent emulsification and stable homogeneity with high shear mixing, ensuring efficient powder wetting and air removal directly within your batch process for enhanced texture and product quality.

Mixes and Emulsifies High-Viscosity Products

The GEA BATCH FORMULA® PRO High Shear Mixer is engineered to streamline your manufacturing processes across food, beverage, dairy, home, personal care, and pharmaceutical industries. This mixer employs a high shear mixing device to rapidly wet and emulsify powders and liquids, producing consistent, homogeneous end-products like salad dressings, protein shakes, and anti-dandruff shampoos. Available with vacuum capabilities, it efficiently deaerates and homogenizes mixtures, enhancing product stability and shelf-life. Suitable for batch operations, this equipment reduces energy consumption while maintaining high throughput and smooth integration with existing processing lines. Featuring hygienic designs and CIP capability, it ensures easy maintenance and compliance with industry standards.

Benefits

  • Enhances product quality by producing consistent, stable emulsions.
  • Decreases energy use and operation time with efficient one-pot processing.
  • Minimizes labor with automatic batch operations and easy integration.
  • Improves product stability with effective deaeration and powder wetting.
  • Simplifies cleaning processes, reducing downtime with CIP capabilities.
