Tank bottom mixer for high viscosity applications

Achieve seamless emulsification and homogenization of high-viscosity products with precision, optimizing your production efficiency and ensuring consistent quality across batches.

Emulsifies and Homogenizes Viscous Media

The ME 6100 Tank Bottom Mixer from INOXPA is specifically designed for industries such as food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and fine chemistry. This high shear mixer excels in processes like dispersion, emulsifying, homogenization, and disintegration of solids. It operates at high speed, utilizing the precision-engineered tolerances between the rotor and stator to create substantial suction potential. The product is sheared mechanically and hydraulically, reducing particle size to less than 100 microns, which is essential in producing consistent end-products like salad dressings, lip balms, and polyester resins.

Designed for both open and closed tanks under varying pressures, it integrates seamlessly into continuous production lines. Featuring a single sanitary mechanical seal and interchangeable stator models, maintenance is straightforward. The mixer supports CIP/SIP for efficient cleaning and hygienic operations. It is constructed from AISI 316L for parts in contact with the product, ensuring compatibility with diverse chemical processes and compliance with industry standards.
