Vertical mixer

BHS vertical mixers are in operation across all industries. Depending on your application, they process dry or wet, free-flowing, or sticky products. In the food sector, the gentle production of spice blends is a classic application. In the pharmaceutical industry, BHS vertical mixers are used for the production of APIs, while the production of cellulose is the most common application in the chemical industry. The conical mixers are perfectly suited to nearly any mixing task, and the heated version can also be used as a dryer, reactor, or evaporator.

Benefits at a glance:

  • Gentle mixing of delicate materials
  • Complete discharge in case of frequent product changes
  • Perfect mixing quality
  • Easy to clean
  • Consistently reproducible product quality

Gentle and thorough mixing

Gentle and thorough mixing

BHS vertical mixers are capable of processing a wide variety of product consistencies and are ideally suited to almost any mixing operation. The rotating helix conveys the product upwards, along the vessel side wall. From here, it drops down into the center and thus once again joins the mixing process. Horizontally arranged connection bridges provide additional cross mixing. This results in greatly reduced mixing times compared to other systems. Depending on the agitator rotation speed and design, gentle folding or intensive mixing can be carried out. The bearing of the self-centering helix is mounted outside of the mixing chamber. BHS vertical mixers are ideally suited to processes where high purity and effective cleaning are required. The vessel shape also supports quick and optimal discharge.
