Popular models of these Laboratory Multi-Shaft Mixers are now being offered for trial/rental. Available in 1-, 2-, and 4-gallon capacities, these R&D mixers feature two or three independently-driven agitators working in tandem, such as a high-speed saw-tooth disperser, a high-shear rotor/stator, and a low-speed anchor. Multi-shaft mixers are commonly used for solids dispersion, dissolution, particle size reduction, emulsification, and preparing homogenous viscous mixtures as high as a million centipoise. These systems can also function as reactors, capable of maintaining tight control of temperature and vacuum or pressure level. An air/oil hydraulic lift is supplied standard for raising/lowering the mix vessel to the agitators. Motors are inverter-duty for use with variable speed control systems. Popular options include sight/charge ports, temperature probes, interchangeable jacketed mix vessels, sanitary construction, built-in vacuum pump, heating/cooling units, discharge systems, explosion-proof operator stations, and PLC systems.
