What Is a High Speed Mixer

High speed mixers are rotor/stator agitators used for more challenging solid-liquid dispersions and emulsions, which high-speed dispersers cannot adequately process. This type of mixing device typically features a four-blade rotor turning at high speeds within a stationary stator. As the blades rotate, materials are continuously drawn into the mixing head and expelled at high velocity through the openings of the stator. The resulting hydraulic shear promotes fast homogenization, deagglomeration and emulsification. Rotor tip speeds between 3,000 and 4,000 ft/min are typical.

Distinction

Another distinction is that the rotor/stator mixer is available in both batch and inline (continuous) designs. An inline high-speed mixer behaves like a centrifugal pump. It is not self-priming and requires static pressure (gravity feeding) or positive pressure (pump feeding) to introduce materials into the mix chamber. In most cases, gravity feeds product into the rotor/stator assembly as the mixer is typically positioned on the floor or on a platform below the liquid level of the recirculation tank. Standard inline models will easily move flowable products up to around 10,000 cP, depending on the formulation’s shear-thinning properties. With an auxiliary pump, moderately viscous coatings, pre-mixes and intermediates can be processed in a high-shear mixer. For large tanks (>500 gallons), the inline configuration is often more practical compared to a batch rotor/stator mixer or other top-entering high-speed agitators that require a high-horsepower motor and a relatively large blade to generate adequate circulation. An inline high-shear mixer, on the other hand, can recirculate product through a 2,500-gallon stirred tank as easily as in a 25-gallon vessel. In fact, with appropriate piping, a single inline mixer can serve multiple batch tanks of various sizes. Typical installations utilize simple valves to divert finished product downstream or switch instantly from one source vessel to another.

Performance

When large powder amounts need to be added quickly into liquid or when hard-to-disperse solids take too long to completely incorporate, a high-shear mixer with built-in sub-surface powder induction capabilities is highly worth considering. Eductor-based powder injection systems, while effective in terms of eliminating floating solids and offering more precise control over the mixing process, do suffer from frequent clogging and intensive maintenance issues. In addition, these systems require an experienced operator to perform the often difficult task of balancing the performance of three separate devices in series: the eductor, pump and mixer. High-shear mixers with an integral mechanism for powder injection are more reliable and easier to operate.
