The Cyclomix high shear impact mixer consists of a conical mixing vessel, equipped with a central paddle rotor, rotating at a speed of up to 30 m/s. The speed of the rotor creates centrifugal forces that push the product against the vessel wall where the shape of the vessel causes an upward movement. The cover directs the product towards the centre of the mixer and at the top, an impact blade efficiently disperses cohesive powders and liquids.
In the Cyclomix, a high degree of liquid dispersion and homogeneity of the agglomerate size can be achieved with ultra-short processing times. It creates a high shear field along the wall, resulting in a rapid build-up of agglomerates, and the impact blade controls the maximum agglomerate size.
This intensive mixing process close to the wall allows effective heat transfer between the heat-controlled jacketed wall and the product. This allows optimal temperature control of the product and very accurate agglomeration with melt binders as well as rapid drying of wet agglomerates.
The Cyclomix is a multi-purpose, high-shear impact mixer that is suitable for a variety of applications. It combines different processes in one single machine and is the ideal choice for intensive thermal processing of high energy input; high degree of dispersion and homogeneity and ultra-short cycle times.
