Product Advantages

High Mixing Efficiency & High Quality
Siehe Industry has many years’ experience of mixing kettle application, capable to choose the most suitable agitator and speed according to different materials feature and mixing requirements, thus the liquids will be mixed in cross and turbulent flow, and at the same in axial and radial motion, finally get uniformly mixed after a certain period of time.
High-speed Dispersing and Emulsifying, Fulfill More Demands, Cost-effective
Mixing kettle can be equipped with 1-2 high-speed disperser and emulsifier with the highest speed 2930rpm(normally 1450rpm), velocity above 20m/s, which make sure the powder material can be uniformly dispersed into the liquids; the mixture will be finally dispersed uniformly and shows good suspension effect because of high-shearing force.
Easy Maintenance and Cleaning
The agitator is fixed on the shaft via bolts, easy to remove and disassemble.
Non-standard
Variety of models can be customized, e.g. explosion proof model, vacuum model, scraper model, multi-function model, etc. The equipment material can adopt SS316L or do spray-coating treatment according to client’s requirement.

Working Principle

The agitator rotates towards a fixed direction driven by the power unit; during the rotation, it drives materials to rotate radially and axially. Materials inside the reactor are in both axial and circular motion, generating several forms of mixing such as shearing mixing and diffusion stirring. Thus the material can be effectively rapidly stirred and mixed.
Dispersing disc rotates in high speed, generating annular flow, resulting in strong vortex, thus the materials spirally down to the bottom. Strong shearing and friction force between particles get the mixture rapidly dispersed and dissolved. The circular motion of the stirring disc generates good radial effect, accelerating material circulation, improve the dispersing efficiency.
Precision-engineered stator and rotor match with each other perfectly. High-speed motor drives the rotor to rotate, which generates vacuum condition between the stator and rotor. So materials are sucked into the chamber from the top of the stator &rotor and also from the bottom. Rotor driven by the strong kinetic energy creates high linear speed, which puts the materials under comprehensive action of strong crushing, tearing, centrifugal extrusion, hydraulic friction etc between the precision-engineered gap of the stator and rotor. After processed, the materials are flying out and generate strong turbulence under the action of forces from different direction. Stable emulsion is obtained after repeated disaggregation, dispersion, homogenization, shearing for a certain period with help of mature production technology and certain quantity emulsifier.

Technical Parameter

   * ①②④ The agitator type and power can only be confirmed after knowing materials state, viscosity and mixing effect;
   * ③Equipment material should be chose according to the corrosive property of the mixture; carbon steel, SS316L or spray coating are for option;
   * ④The above-listed capacity data is calculated based on 2,000cps material, when selecting a model, the actual viscosity and specific gravity should be considered.
   * ⑤The above-listed data of equipment weight does not contain the kettle/tank weight, and also relates to the agitator type and material viscosity.
