The MegaShear Ultra-High Shear Mixer is designed for homogenizing dispersions and disintegrating large solid particles or droplets suspended in liquid. An inline rotor/stator design, the mixing head turns at tip speeds well over 11,000 ft/min and generates extremely complex flow patterns without sacrificing throughput. The intense mechanical and hydraulic shear results in a very fine particle size distribution. Materials are fed by gravity or pumped to the mixer. When an auxiliary pump is used it can handle viscosities up to around 200,000 cP or higher. It offers an alternative to high pressure homogenizers.
