The INDAG Solid-liquid Inline Mixer type DLM/FS is used for the continuous mixing of liquids with solid components. The solid components can have sizes up to 20 mm (spherical diameter) or be powdery. Usually, the liquid content is the larger portion by weight. Depending on the geometry of the mixing elements, the solids can be mixed in gently or with a higher shear rate. This ensures that powders are finely distributed, and larger solid particles are not damaged during mixing. It is also possible to mix solids into foams without damaging the foam material. A few examples from a wide range of applications are: Mixing fibers or powders into polymers, mixing pigments with carrier substances, and granulates in liquids, mixing powders into silicones, ...
Advantages of DLM/FS
- Very good self cleaning during CIP-cleaning
- Homogenously mixing of small concentrations (0,1% mixing ratio); very homogenous mixing result.
- Energy efficient mixing process
- Mixing energy can by changed by frequency inverter
- Temperature increase less than 1°C
- Gentle mixing of shear sensitive products
- Easy dismounting for manual cleaning
