In-tank mixer for Ibc tote mixing
Overcome the challenge of incorporating buoyant or cohesive powders into liquid mixtures, ensuring seamless distribution and reducing processing times in high-viscosity environments.

Incorporates Powders and Ensures Efficient In-Tank Mixing
The Silverson Ultramix is a versatile in-tank mixer designed for demanding applications across pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries. Its unique mixing head effortlessly incorporates light-density and cohesive powders, preventing clumping and ensuring even distribution. Suitable for applications like oral suspensions and emulsified dressings, it operates effectively even in containers with narrow openings, such as IBCs.
This mixer supports a range of processes, including emulsifying, homogenizing, and disintegrating, with a capacity from 5 to 2000 gallons. Constructed with 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance, it features a CIP-cleanable design and complies with 3A TPV, USDA, and cGMP standards. Its robust, single-piece head ensures low maintenance without wear-prone parts like bushings, making it a reliable choice for continuous production lines. Available customization options and configurations cater to specific industry requirements.
