Mobile Lift High Shear Mixer for Face Cream, Xanthan Gum, and Silicone Oil

When a batch needs high shear but the vessel can\’t move to a fixed mixer, a mobile lift high shear mixer solves the layout problem. We build these units with casters and a lift frame so one machine can serve multiple tanks or processing stations. The same head handles emulsification, dispersion, and powder incorporation into liquids — useful when your formula includes xanthan gum, silicone oil, or other challenging ingredients.

What you can specify

• Motor power: 1.5 kW to 11 kW, selected against your product viscosity and batch size.
• Speed control: Optional VFD for 0–3000 rpm adjustment, depending on motor and configuration.
• Voltage: 220V to 480V; we confirm frequency, phase, and electrical configuration for your destination.
• Contact parts: Stainless steel and other materials specified to suit your product.
• Mixing head: Rotor/stator or dispersing head chosen for your process — emulsifying, powder wetting, or general dispersion.
• Mounting: Mobile lift design with casters; fixed installation available when preferred.

Matching the mixer to your batch

Start with batch size and vessel dimensions. A 200 L tank and a 2,000 L tank demand different shaft lengths and motor torque. Then look at viscosity and solids content. Xanthan gum solutions thicken quickly; silicone oil adds a second liquid phase that needs enough shear to stabilize. Tell us the target RPM range and we\’ll size the motor and drive accordingly. For powder dispersion, the head design matters more than raw speed — you need enough vortex to pull powder under the surface without pulling in air.

Electrical supply is often the last thing checked and the first thing that delays commissioning. Confirm your plant voltage, frequency, and phase before ordering. We build the control panel to match, whether that\’s a simple starter or a VFD with local speed adjustment.

Typical applications

Our batch high shear mixers run in food and beverage plants, cosmetic and personal care production, pharmaceutical and healthcare compounding, chemical processing, and compatible paint and coating formulations. They handle liquid-liquid emulsification and powder dispersion. The right mixing head, material, and operating parameters depend on your product\’s viscosity, ingredients, and process requirements — we don\’t quote a single configuration as universal.

FAQ

Can the mixer move between tanks? Yes, the mobile lift design includes casters. Check aisle width and floor conditions; a fixed unit may be more stable for very large batches.

Do I need a VFD? If your process requires different speeds for powder incorporation versus emulsification, a variable speed high shear mixer with VFD is practical. For single-speed duty, a fixed drive can work.

What about cleanability? Stainless steel contact parts and accessible head designs help with cleaning between products. Discuss your cleaning method — manual, CIP, or solvent flush — when specifying.
