Static Mixer, Static Mixing Technology

Static mixers help to get the desired mixing of two or more components without moving of equipment. These mixers are also specialized for the continuous mixing of components with perfect-mannered mixing quality. The compact structure of the static mixer mixes the streams of fluids into housing and pipelines. Adequate mixing in such a compact area can be obtained by inserting a static mixer only. It differentiates itself with its stable and fixed nature, unlike traditional mixers. Here we offer optimized blending technology for fluids as well as gasses with less energy consumption. Our efficient mixers are fully developed and manufactured to only satisfy and justify industrial needs.

S-Cube Mass Transfer India provides Static Mixing Technology widely used in the fluid processing industry. We are one of the best Static Mixer suppliers in Pune, India.

Working Principle of Static Mixer

Static mixing assure that mixing can be achieved in short pipe length and in motionless operation. The efficiency of a static mixer depends on the angular arrangement of elements. Mixing elements are serially arranged one after another to get a homogeneously mixed outlet throughout. Various angles mixing elements divide and Recombine the streams through the mixer to achieve the required homogeneous mixture. Process requirements and specific properties such as density, the viscosity of fluid stream, and degree of mixing of mixture are the factors that decide the number of mixing elements required in a mixer.

Benefits of Static Mixer

Direct molding of material into mixing elements gives efficient mixing without energy consumption.
Proper distribution of fluid streams, and additives into short pipe sections can be achieved in a very short time.
Most consistent type of mixer in the segment regarding viscosity, color, and texture of the product outlet.
Easy and customizable to handle. Quick changes in mixture or stream ratio can be done accordingly.
Accurate shaping and sizing of the mixer provided. Need not be modified or reevaluated, unlike large mixers.
Compatible with all types of industrial applications.
