What is a homogenizing mixer?

A homogenizing mixer is an industrial process system for producing emulsions, suspensions, gels and creams. The combination of agitator and high-performance homogenizer creates very fine particle distributions and stable products.

Typical functions
  • Mixing
  • Dispersing
  • Homogenizing
  • Heating & cooling
  • Vacuum processing

Applications of homogenizing mixers

Homogenizing mixers are used in numerous industries:

Pharmaceuticals

  • Ointments
  • Gels
  • Suspensions

Cosmetics

  • Creams
  • Lotions
  • Emulsions

Food

  • Sauces
  • Dressings
  • Functional foods

What matters is the right system size and homogenizer technology – we are happy to help you choose.

How does a homogenizing mixer work?

A homogenizing mixer operates in several process steps:

  1. 1Mixing the raw materials in the vessel
  2. 2Circulation through the homogenizer
  3. 3Size reduction by high shear forces
  4. 4Return to the vessel

Depending on the system (e.g. rotor/stator or co-twister), shear forces, throughput and particle size can be precisely controlled.

What types of homogenizers are there?

Rotor/stator systems

  • Standard in many systems
  • High shear forces
  • Proven and robust
Symex

Co-twister

  • Independent control of shear and conveying capacity
  • Ideal for sensitive products
  • Greater process control
Particularly relevant for pharmaceutical and high-end applications.

What system size is right?

Laboratory< 100 LTypical systems: RW60, CML50
Pilot100–500 LTypical systems: RW320, CML125
Production> 500 LTypical systems: RW1000, CML1000

What should you look for when buying?

When purchasing a homogenizing mixer, the following are crucial:

  • Batch size
  • Product viscosity
  • Desired particle size
  • Heating/cooling capacity
  • Level of automation

Wrong choices often lead to inefficient processes – together with you, we check which system suits your product.

Frequently Asked Questions about used homogenizing mixers

How much does a homogenizing mixer cost?

Depending on size, equipment and condition, a used homogenizing mixer is typically 40–70% cheaper than a comparable new system. We will be happy to quote a specific price on request.

Which system do I need for creams?

For creams, lotions and ointments, vacuum homogenizing mixers with a rotor/stator homogenizer or co-twister are usually the right choice. The vacuum prevents air entrapment, while the homogenizer ensures a fine, stable emulsion.

What is the difference between a mixer and a homogenizer?

The agitator (mixer) blends the entire vessel contents. The homogenizer uses high shear forces to create a fine particle or droplet distribution and is therefore crucial for product quality and stability.

Is there a warranty on used systems?

Yes. We sell the machines fully serviced and provide an industry-standard 12-month warranty, excluding wear parts.

Do you also handle installation and commissioning?

Yes. On request, we support you as a turn-key project from design through to commissioning at your site.

Can I sell my used process plant through you?

Please contact us. Thanks to our market experience, we often know suitable buyers for used homogenizing mixers and process plants.
