Mixers
Name your specifications and MorehouseCowles will build a ViscoMAX multi-shaft mixer to fit your application. Need a small model to test batches cost-efficiently in the lab? ViscoMAX comes as small as one-quart capacity. Want to scale up your formula for pilot and full-production runs? We'll design a ViscoMAX to deliver the product uniformity and batch circulation you want - even at viscosities exceeding 1,000,000 centipoise (cps).
Every ViscoMAX features at least two shafts to disperse material evenly throughout each batch. A high-speed impeller swirls ingredients throughout the tank. While a second, low-speed anchor blade wipes the vessel walls, pushing product continuously back into the high-shear zones for thorough mixing.
A third, optional intermediate-speed blade mixes product 50% faster than most two-shaft models. It eliminates dead spots or hot spots in heat or shear-sensitive products. Use all three blades simultaneously, or turn off the high-speed impeller and use with low-speed blade only for proper mixing conditions. Third shaft comes in standard and custom styles.
