The introduction of the static mixer into different industries simplified the industrial mixing processes. People designed the device to mix various fluids or fluids and gas, efficiently. Since mixing of industrial inputs is required in many industries, static mixers got grater popularity.
Since the static mixers come with no moving parts or motors, it is also called as a motionless static mixer. The research for more customized mixing solutions gave some advanced mixers that give specific results based on various industrial requirements. One such product is triple action static mixers from Komax Systems Inc., a leader in static mixing technology.
Specialties of the Product
The mixer is effectively utilizing the gravity to execute the mixing process. It offers great predictability about each stage of mixing from blending to dispersing. Additionally, the users can expect uniformity in the entire process. It means that the industries would get the same velocity throughout the process.
Also, the triple action static mixer comes with almost no maintenance costs and offers long-life span. Compared to other mixers, the triple action mixer offers superior mixing experience to various industries based on their needs.
The Technology
The mixer is coming with three different types of mixing. It offers two-by-two mixing, cross-current mixing, and back mixing and counter-rotating vortices. While coming to two-by-two mixing, the mixers divide and re-divide the mixing process by a number of elements. Interestingly, each of these elements is built at right angles to one another.
Due to that, each of those elements doubles the divisions in the next stage. It means that just twenty elements would produce over a million divisions.
The cross-current is making the mixing process more effective through special cavities. The cavities randomize the flow of liquids or gases using direct stream impingement. The process also optimizes the effects of the two-by-two process.
While coming to counter-rotating vortices, each element of the mixer generates elliptical vortices using both the sides. The elements make it possible by rotating in opposite directions. Interestingly, this process avoids the tunneling or streaming effects encountered with other mixers.
Finally, when the material rotates in the elliptical vortices from the front direction to back direction of any element, it creates back-mixing. Interestingly, this process continues until the material advances to downstream.
The three-way mixing is significantly advancing the mixing efficiency. The triple action static mixer is a product for industries that need highly effective mixing. The proven mixing technology has garnered significant popularity within a short span of time.
