New Technology - "ZC0" Inline Powder Disperser

For years processors have struggled with reliable scale-up from small bench top stirrer mechanisms to large scale production mixers. Scale-up of high shear mixing applications adds additional challenges including: extreme Hp requirements; mechanical limitations; and designing a mixer with the ability to generate sufficient bulk tank turnover whilst maintaining the necessary shear to complete the application. Mixer scale-up with inline mixing equipment eliminates many of the problems associated when scaling up in-tank mixers from bench scale to production. Quadro YtronTM has recently developed a pilot scale inline powder disperser that is directly scalable to the larger ZC1 and ZC3 Model Dispersers. Not only are the ZC Models scalable, inline processing ensures single pass dispersion of the most difficult-to-disperse powders into liquids, batch-to-batch quality consistency, reduced batch times, reduced energy requirements and elimination of unnecessary air entrainment.
