Suppliers showed off new equipment at this year’s Pack Expo Las Vegas.
HIGH-SHEAR MIXERS
Admix Inc. says it showcased a range of high-shear mixers engineered for dispersing powders into liquids, reducing particle size, and creating stable emulsions. The Benchmix 10 was introduced — a 1-horsepower lab mixer with touchscreen controls scheduled for release in the early first quarter of 2022. New automation controls were introduced on the Fast feed powder induction and dispersion system, making it easier to operate and easier to obtain batch-to-batch consistencies. The Rotosolver demonstrated high shear and high flow for improving in-tank mixing operations. Inline high-shear mixers shown included the Dynashear emulsifier and the Boston Shearmill wet mill. Low-shear mixers were also featured.
