ADSB Top Entry High Shear Sealed Bearing Mixer

Superior Performance with Safety and Versatility

Batch sizes: 25L - 5000L

The ADSB top entry sealed bearing mixer can be vessel mounted or mounted on a lifting stand for mixing with interchangeable vessels, bins and containers.

The shaft rotates within a central support tube, with the shaft being guarded within the tube, making this mixer suitable for exposed applications.

This unique construction also allows for the use of a double mixing head. This design efficiently draws product in from both above and below with minimal obstruction, proving particularly useful when mixing light products which would otherwise float on the surface.

Notes: Purpose-designed machines and larger models can be manufactured to suit customer requirements

Our High Shear Vessel Mixers Range

The AE mixers range of versatile, efficient, high shear top and bottom entry vessel mixers are widely used in a range of industries. The intense mixing action of the mixer results in an improved product consistency with reduced process times compared with conventional low shear mixers.

A comprehensive range of precision machined interchangeable rotor stator work heads can easily be fitted to both top and bottom entry machines, giving the machine flexibility to perform many essential processes.

Mixing capacities vary according to the process material, viscosity, shape of vessel, etc. and will progressively reduce as viscosity increases.

A range of easily interchanged heads can be supplied so that machines can be adapted to offer a wide range of mixing operations. 

General Purpose – A versatile disintegrating head with 2 rows of holes coupled with a double action rotor to give vigorous mixing action. Suitable for thick solutions and slurry.

General purpose twin head – A disintegrating head with a combination of holes and slots coupled with double-action rotor ensure materials are given one or two-stage mixing without changing the stator. 

Single castle – The single castle head coupled with a single castle rotor is designed for the production of emulsions and suspended matter in an average viscosity range. 

Double castle – The double castle head and single castle rotor combination is designed for use with materials of higher viscosities. Typical application being dispersion of pigments.

Specialised variations – Triple castle head combined with double castle rotor, used in thin emulsions and suspended matter with a low content of solids when high particle fineness is to be obtained. 

We also provide a service to design and develop customised dispersion heads to meet the requirements of various product processes.

Frequently Asked Questions

The right mixer is determined by the process rather than the product category. The main factors are viscosity, batch volume or required flow rate, solids content, operating temperature, the level of shear the product can tolerate, and your cleaning and hygiene standards. A product that needs a stable emulsion or fine particle size reduction will usually call for high shear mixing, while simple blending or keeping solids in suspension may only need an agitator. Our engineers can specify the right configuration for your process — contact the team to discuss your application.

High shear mixers use a rotor-stator assembly to generate intense mechanical and hydraulic shear, breaking down agglomerates, reducing particle and droplet size and producing stable emulsions. Agitators and fluid mixers move product around the vessel more gently, which suits liquid blending, maintaining suspension, improving heat transfer and preventing solids from settling. Choosing between them depends on whether the product needs to be physically broken down or simply moved and combined — and on whether ingredients could be damaged by more aggressive processing.

Yes. We offer tailored process trials so you can see how our equipment performs with your own formulation before committing. Our technical team handles the setup, supports the trial and provides detailed feedback on the results. Trials are particularly useful where product behaviour is hard to predict — high-viscosity products, difficult-to-wet powders, or emulsions that need to stay stable through production.
