FPS range of in-tank homogenizer comprise of a specific arrangement of sets of Stators and Rotors concentrically mounted in vertical orientation to the fluid flow. In-tank Homogenizers provide vigorous shear force to the material ensuring better pre-mixing and lump-free formulation of the material. In-tank Homogenizers are advantageous over any convectional mixer agitators due to its multiple mixing/shearing action.

Blending
Blending refer to mixing of liquids of similar varying viscosities which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Disintegrating
Disintegration is defined as the process in which particles, majorly in form of chips/bales/agglomerates are disintegrated to fine particles making a consistent slurry, which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Homogenizing
Homogeneous product is designed as one which shall have equal distribution of particles through the mix which can also be defined as consistency of the mix, which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Particle Size Reduction
Particle size reduction is a process of preparation of finer suspensions from slurries (semi-solid materials) making it consistent, which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Emulsifying
Emulsification is defined as the process in which droplets of the mix (majorly liquids of varying viscosities) are dropped down to the range of 0.5 to 5 microns typically, which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Solubilizing & Gelling
Solubilizing is a process of dispersion of solids into liquids which are not easily dispersed into liquids and usually form agglomerates, this process of breaking of agglomerates into finer particles to form consistent slurries, which is achieved easily using a FPS High Shear Homogenizer Mixer
Shear Force Principle:
FPS In-tank High Shear Mixers works on the principle of shear force produced in between the rotor and stator. The high-speed rotation of the rotor sucks the material into the eye of the rotor wherein high amount of centrifugal force throws the material outwards towards the stator wall. The material is sheared off as the high rotational kinetic energy is converted to heat energy because of disruption to the flow of the material in between the rotor and stator further leading to the high amount of shear energy in a small confined space, also known as the tolerance in between the rotor and stator.
Working of In-tank High Shear Homogenizers:
STEP 1
STEP 2
STEP 3
STEP 4
STEP 1
High Speed Rotation of rotor blades exerts a powerful suction, drawing in liquids and solids directly into the eye of the rotor.
STEP 2
Material is centrifugally forced to the tolerance between the rotor and inner walls of the stator where milling action takes place.
STEP 3
The milling is then followed by vigorous hydraulic shearing as the material is forced through the perforations in the stator.
STEP 4
A continuous mixing pattern is maintained due to continuous radial expulsion and suction into the eye forming a stable mixing pattern.
