High Shear In-Line Emulsification and Wet Milling
The Quadro Ytron® Z Emulsifier delivers unparalleled consistency and control of high shear mixer applications involving emulsification, wet milling or grinding, deagglomeration and fine solids dispersion.

The Z-Emulsifier accommodates up to three stages of sequential rotor-stator mixer tooling, operating at high differential velocities with up to 15 shear zones working on product as it flows through the in-line mixer. The result is consistent, repeatable quality at capacities exceeding those of conventional high shear mixer, such as in-tank rotor-stator mixers, colloid mills, and shear pumps.

High shear tooling for the Z-Emulsifier comes in a variety of slot sizes which allows a high degree of flexibility in selecting the appropriate tooling for any given mixing application. Through rotor-stator selection and varying the speed of the high shear tooling, the shear rate of the mixer can be controlled and scaled with precision.

High Shear In-Line Mixer Performance and Advantages

  • Multiple row toothed rotor-stator tooling improves high shear performance and eliminates product bypassing
  • Up to 3-stages of successive high shear tooling enables a unique solution for each mixing application
  • Applications are pump fed to control fluid velocity separate from process shear energy
  • An equal application of shear energy avoids over processing, and often achieves target results in a single pass
  • Toothed style rotor-stator tooling offers increased capacity over colloid mills and other in-line mill technology
  • Our application expertise and unique approach to process control allows a greater degree of precision in scaling any process using the Z-Emulsifier
  • Designed to meet 3-A Sanitary Standards for easy cleaning; CIP and SIP options available
