Select the Right Rotor-Stator Geometry for Fine Particle Dispersion
A uniform distribution of particles is often the difference between a smooth suspension and a lumpy final product. But how do you achieve an accurate particle size distribution (PSD) during fine dispersion work? The geometry of the rotor-stator, especially the slot width, plays a crucial role. This article explains how to make the right choices […]
Hygienic Design for Mixing: Faster Cleaning and Less Contamination Risk
If you work in the food, pharmaceutical, or some chemical industries, you know that hygiene directly impacts your product quality and safety. An effective CIP (Clean-in-Place) process prevents downtime and contamination. Yet cleaning still proves challenging when systems are not designed with hygiene in mind. Dead zones and improper seals quickly become breeding grounds for […]
Vacuum Mixing of Viscous Suspensions for Air-Free, Superior Results
Inline Vacuum Mixing of Viscous Suspensions: Eliminate Air, Improve Outcomes—Without a Vacuum Tank Anyone who has ever mixed a thick, viscous mass in the process industry knows the challenge: entrained air. Air in products causes foam, unnecessary volume, and problems during packaging and downstream processing. The usual solution is a vacuum tank, but this is […]
Halve Gums and Starches Hydration Time with Inline Tech
Gums and starches define texture and stability. They often take a long time to prepare. With the right inline dispersing technology, you accelerate hydration dramatically. In many processes we see total process time cut in half while end quality improves. No extra additives. No extra handling. You keep the line moving and run more batches […]
Explosion-Proof Powder Handling Tips for ATEX Installation and Safety
Do you work in a production environment where powders are processed? Then you know that dust explosions are always a potential hazard. Fortunately, the ATEX guidelines provide clear standards for explosion-proof systems and processes. But what should you pay attention to when installing and maintaining your powder handling equipment? In this article, we share practical […]
Inline Powder Induction: Efficient, Dust-Free Powder Addition for Industry
Anyone working in the process industry recognises the challenge: powders need to be dissolved quickly, safely, and without lumps in a liquid. However, traditional dosing by pouring onto the liquid surface often leads to problems, such as dust formation, lumps, or product loss. There is, fortunately, a more efficient method. Discover why more companies are […]
Dispersing meaning
Dispersing is a technique used to finely distribute multiple substances that are difficult to mix with each other. Usually, this involves a solid in a liquid, but a gas or a liquid can also be dispersed with another liquid. This process creates a homogeneous mixture, known as a dispersion, suspension, or emulsion, important for product […]
Podcast Episode 1: A look at industrial mixing technology
In this episode, AI discusses how processes like dispersing and the use of high shear mixers play an important role in various industries, including the food industry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals. RS Contracting and industrial mixing solutions The podcast explores how RS Contracting, with over 25 years of experience, has developed into a leading supplier […]
