Silverson - Powder and Liquid High Shear Mixers
The advantage of installing a Silverson for mixing, is that it can perform all of the duties that may have required several different pieces of process equipment in the past. The range of mixing applications that can be performed by any one Silverson mixer are:
- Blending
- Disintegrating
- Emulsifying
- Homogenizing
- Suspending
- Solubilizing
- Particle Size Reduction
Key Equipment Examples
Silverson Flashmix
The Silverson Flashmix takes a revolutionary approach to powder/liquid mixing. Unlike many powder/liquid mixers, which use vacuum to pull in powders, the Flashmix literally forces powder into the liquid stream. This not only allows it to disperse and hydrate large volumes of powders, it means it can be used at higher temperatures and with higher viscosity mixes – offering the advantages of high shear mixing to a wide range of applications that were previously not possible.
Advantages
- Rapid powder incorporation rates of up to 500 lbs/min
- Consistently agglomerate-free product, ensuring uniformity every time
- Suitable for high-temperature operations with exceptional performance
- Ideal for higher concentrations of gums and thickeners
- Minimized aeration for optimal results
- Sanitary design based on a 3-A Certified and EHEDG Certifiable sanitary mixer
- Modular construction offers versatility for various applications and batch sizes
- Low power requirement without the need for additional pumps
- Ergonomic, low-level design for user convenience
