Shear Mixing

SEPAK INDUSTRIES Powder mixing systems, incorporating our new shear pump, are now available from Sepak Industries. The powder mixing system is a skid mounted, inline, powder / liquid blending system for introducing powders into continuous wet processes. This system is used where ‘difficult to wet’ powders cannot be simply tipped into a process vessel and stirred.

The powder mixer utilizes a shear pump, a self priming pump together with a powder hopper, valves and pipe work to significantly reduce dissolving times (up to 90%). The system can successfully dissolve 15 tonns  per hour of sugar into cold water, resulting in cost savings compared to other dissolving processes. The high shear energy, up to 125000 s-1, is produced from the shear pumps 0.3 mm rotor/stator clearance and up to 38 m/s rotor tip speeds, has been proven to create homogenous emulsions from a diverse range of products.

Other proven applications include:
