Our Triple Action Static Mixer gets rave reviews from folks in a number of different industries, but more than one company has asked us why they needed triple action from a static mixer. After all, isn’t just the simple idea of static mixing enough? Absolutely not. Triple action really does matter. Take a look at just how powerful three different types of mixing can be.

• Two By Two Division: Our mixer divides and redivides the process stream you add with a series of elements that are actually at right angles from each other. Each one of those elements (and you get to decide how many elements are actually involved in the process) doubles the number of divisions possible. So, if you choose to go with something like twenty elements in your static mixer, you’re getting more than a million different divisions and recombinations.
• Cross Current Mixing: Each of our static mixers has special cavities built inside. That means that the distribution of the material you’ve added is completely randomized thanks to direct stream impingement. The best part is that this enhances the two by two division process, making it more effective than you could ever imagine.
• Counter-Rotating Vortices: In a turbulent flow situation both sides of the elements you’ve decided go into your mixer builds elliptical vortices that rotate in opposite directions. That helps to eliminate those streaming and tunneling effects that are so common with other static mixers. That also helps to create some level of backmixing because the material is orbited in the vortex from the front to the back of any given element before it continues its journey.

So, the real question isn’t why triple mixing. It’s why not triple mixing. If you want your process stream truly and completely mixed, our Triple Action Static Mixer is the only way to go.
