Mix 5 to 20 liters. Laboratory mixer for research, development and small production.

Our laboratory mixers are ideal for quality assurance, small quantities, formulation testing, optimization of mixing processes and development of new processes.

The reproducibility of the results on the actual pro­duction process is decisive here. The mixing containers can be easily changed – cleaning before the next mixing process is no longer necessary.

Advantages of our Laboratory Mixers. Easy and safe scale-up to production possible.

An optimal laboratory mixer enables uncomplicated, reliable and flexible research and development work. The laboratory mixer must be able to realistically reproduce the mixing processes for actual production in order to transfer the results from the laboratory scale by scale-up.

For this, the laboratory mixer must master the mixing processes and applications used in production. Our laboratory mixers master all mixing applications of large mixers, and the results can be easily reproduced.

With its innovative mixing tools and variable mixing processes, MIXACO laboratory mixers are ideal for many industries, raw materials and applications.

Laboratory mixer for many applications. Demanding mixing tasks on a small scale.

Our laboratory mixer has all the functions and mixing applications as the large industrial mixers. This means that even sophisticated mixing processes and procedures from production can be reproduced and predicted on a laboratory scale.

The MIXACO laboratory mixer is suitable for many different raw materials and mixtures. The flexible mixer is used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food, paint and chemical industries, among others – mixing processes include:

  • Mixing
  • Homogenizing
  • Comminution
  • Coating
  • Dispersing
  • Defibering
  • Drying
  • Heating
  • Cooling
  • Tempering
  • Mixing processes under protective gas
  • Vacuum mixing
  • Injection of liquids / gas
  • Coloring

Here are a few examples of other special applications in the laboratory:

  • Mixing of battery masses and raw materials for the energy storage solution
  • Mixing for the pharmaceutical industry
  • Pharmaceutical wet granules
  • Small batches of bulk materials
  • Small batches for food development
  • Mixing of flavors
  • Coating of the mixed material with melted fats and recris­tallization by addition of liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide snow
  • Melting and cooling
  • Coating of plant ­protectants by slow addition of liquids
  • Quality control of raw materials / incoming goods
  • Loading of carriers with liquid, for example in detergents
  • Grain build-up by repeated addition of liquids and powders
  • Dyeing of plastics
  • And much more

FAQ. Laboratory Mixer Knowledge.

What is a Laboratory Mixer?

A laboratory mixer is a mixer for small quantities that is used, for example, in research, product development, quality control, process development, product improvement and mixing optimization.

In this context, the “small quantity” on the market can vary from 1 ml to 50kg – because there are different requirements for the mixing size of the laboratory scale depending on the industry.

The design of the laboratory mixer is also not fixed. From the small benchtop unit to the larger floor-standing unit, a mixer can function as a laboratory mixer.

The laboratory mixer can be a mini-wheel mixer, in which a whole vessel is rotated, or a laboratory stirrer, a mini-agitator that is lowered into a mixing vessel. The barrel mixer or tumbler mixer also exists in smaller laboratory mixer variants. As with the large tumbler mixer, here a closed container is moved / shaken as a whole.

Laboratory mixers for more demanding applications and raw materials can be equipped with different tools and mix air- and dust-tight.

Our MIXACO laboratory mixer is a small container mixer that works on the principle of interchangeable mixing containers.

The mixing container is turned upside down for the mixing process, so that gravity contributes to an optimum mixing result and mixing can take place completely free of dead space.
