Silverson Machines at the PPMA Show
This year Silverson Machines will be on stand E20 at the PPMA show . On the stand will be a range of high shear mixing equipment , from smaller-scale Laboratory mixers to full scale production mixers such as the Flashmix powder / liquid mixer .
LABORATORY MIXERS
For mixing small batches from 1ml up to 12 litres , Silverson has a range of Laboratory mixers suitable for a wide range of mixing processes . All Silverson rotor / stator mixers come with a range of easily interchangeable workheads , which allow one mixer to perform many mixing tasks which would otherwise need several pieces of mixing equipment . Silverson Laboratory mixers can blend , emulsify , homogenise , disintegrate , dissolve and de-agglomerate , and mix in-line with flow rates up to 20 litres / minute using an In-Line mixing assembly .

IN-TANK MIXERS For in-tank mixing of volumes up to 30,000 litres Silverson supplies in-tank Batch mixer models . Capable of performing all of the same mixing process as Silverson Laboratory mixers , it is possible to reduce mixing times by up to 90 % when using high shear Batch mixers as opposed to traditional mixing methods such as stirrers or agitators .
The Silverson Ultramix in-tank mixer is designed for applications that are beyond the capabilities of a conventional agitator or stirrer but do not necessarily require the intense high shear of a Silverson rotor / stator mixer . Ideal for rapidly wetting out powders , the vigorous mixing action is capable of moving the entire contents of vessels even in difficult shaped containers .
LABORATORY-SCALE IN-LINE MIXING
Silverson will be displaying productionscale In-Line mixers as well as demonstrating working benchtop models such as the Verso-UHS-HV .
The Verso-UHS-HV is a laboratoryscale In-Line mixer designed for mixing high viscosity products . It incorporates the same unique and innovative ‘ pumping rotor ’ design as the production scale HV In-Line mixers . This substantially increases its self-pumping capacity , allowing it to process products such as gels , creams , sauces and gum solutions on a laboratory scale .
POWDER / LIQUID MIXING For mixing large quantities of powder , Silverson developed the Flashmix . Unlike many powder / liquid mixers , which use vacuum to pull in powder , the Flashmix literally forces powder into the liquid stream . This not only allows it to disperse and hydrate large volumes of powders , it means it can be used at higher temperatures and with higher viscosity mixes .
