Lab Heater Mixer
Create precise, repeatable dry blends with our Lab Heater Mixer—perfect for PVC compounding trials, stabilizer/lubricant package testing, and masterbatch premix development. High-intensity mixing ensures uniform dispersion and consistent batch quality, allowing rapid iteration for formulation development.
A Closer Look at Our Machinery
Key Applications
Masterbatch trials (color & additive dispersion)
Pigment / filler dispersion studies
Additive blending (stabilizers, lubricants, slip, antiblock, processing aids)
Polymer homogenization (PE, PP, PVC, EVA)
Biodegradable / compostable formulation trials
Lab validation before scale-up and production trials
Key Features
- Production-relevant mixing in a lab footprint that helps reduce scale-up risk
- Small-batch testing capability to cut material consumption and development cost
- Repeatable process conditions for dependable, comparable trial data
- Faster cycle turnaround using heating-to-cooling operation for quicker iteration
- Industrial-inspired mixing geometry with a tapered cylindrical bowl for uniform flow behavior
Core Benefits
- High-shear rotor performance for faster, more consistent blend quality
- Digital control over RPM, temperature, and timing for precise experimentation
- Quick-action bottom discharge to simplify emptying and speed up cleaning
- Low-noise, vibration-managed drive design for comfortable daily lab use
- ROI-focused operation with trial-cost reduction potential
(up to ~60% versus full-scale runs, process dependent) and long service life with low maintenance
