The Bepex Turbulizer is a continuous high shear paddle mixer able to achieve near-instantaneous mixing or agglomeration of liquids and solids. Utilizing a high-speed rotor with adjustable paddles, the Turbulizer creates intense mixing and agglomeration action resulting in homogenous, dust-free particles. Residence times range from 2-30 seconds and high tip speeds result in an output particle size up to 2-3 mm. The optional jacketed vessel provides the ability to heat or cool materials in preparation for a reaction or as a means to melt binding materials.

HIGHLIGHTS

Ideal for continuous mixing, coating, hydrating, and homogenizing applications
Able to accept multiple solid and wet ingredients, and output a uniform dust-free agglomerate
Outboard bearings and seals simplify maintenance
Thin working layer of material promotes efficient heat transfer when needed, and makes efficient use of installed horsepower

Residence time can be closely controlled by adjusting paddle angles on the rotor and manipulating rotor speeds. The short residence time and low working volume result in a high capacity machine requiring minimal floor space and headroom for installation.

The high degree of variability and flexibility in design and control lends itself to a variety of applications. This includes dry powder mixing, hydrating hard to wet powders, slurry mixing, particle coating, crystallization, granulation, homogenizing, de-lumping and finishing.
