Our IBC Mixer has been designed to deliver optimal mixing performance and efficiency for Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) of any size or type. Constructed from premium materials, this robust mixer guarantees thorough blending of liquids and powders, resulting in a uniform mixture every time. Equipped with all necessary components for immediate operation, and whether for ATEX zones or standard environments, this mixer offers versatility with options like fixed, folding or kicker impellers, and features various motor types, including electric motors for viscosities up to 15,000 cPs, and pneumatic motors suitable for both low and high-viscosity fluids. Our team of process experts are on hand to assist in selecting the correct impeller, drive assembly, and materials to ensure efficient mixing for your operational requirements.
