High Shear Mixers

PreMax Rotor-Stator Mixer Flow Pattern

PreMax
The PreMax is a single stage rotor/stator generator specially contoured to generate high shear and vigorous flow in a batch mixing environment. The Delta rotor/stator of the PreMax is designed to produce an intense combination of mechanical and cavitational shear, which results in aggressive pigment deagglomeration. This high shear mixer can reduce the number of passes required through a media mill during pigment dispersion, thereby reducing costs and speeding up production. The PreMax is ideal for flexo, gravure and offset inks, paints, industrial coatings, electronic inks and cosmetics.

Flow Pattern
The PreMax rotor-stator generator draws materials into the high shear zone from both above and below. This promotes fast wetting and deagglomeration as well as vigorous flow, both radially and axially.
