ViscoMAX mixers are supplied as standard with two shafts: A high-speed impeller that swirls ingredients throughout the tank and a second, low-speed anchor blade that wipes the vessel walls and pushes product continuously into the high-shear zones for thorough mixing. An optional third shaft can be added to control heat build-up. This intermediate speed shaft mixes product 50% faster than most two-shaft models and works especially well with higher viscosity materials. This eliminates dead and hot spots in heat or shear-sensitive products. Use all three blades simultaneously or turn off the high-speed impeller to only use the sweep and third shaft when shear is not required. The third shaft is available in standard and custom styles depending on the application.
