Agitators
Discover propeller, dissolver, anchor & folding agitators for pressure and mixing vessels – pneumatic or electric, with optional gearbox, speed control, ATEX, shaft guidance & sealing. From viscosity & shear requirements to vessel geometry and torque/speed through to cleaning, we configure your agitator precisely.
Use & Benefits
Homogeneous mixtures without sediment, defined shear for dispersing and repeatable viscosity control. Properly designed agitators reduce rework, shorten setup/cleaning times and ensure reproducible coating results – in the workshop and in series production.
Technology & Settings
Impeller & geometry: Propeller for mixing, dissolver for high shear, anchor for high viscosity. Torque/speed derived from viscosity, batch height and desired shear. Shaft guidance/sealing (e.g., bearing block, mechanical seal) selected to suit the medium. Observe ATEX/grounding in hazardous zones; control via pressure regulator or frequency inverter. Consider baffles and installation height to reduce vortex formation.
Accessories & Integration
Agitator air motors & gearboxes, frames/lifting devices, shafts & couplings, impellers (propeller, dissolver, anchor, folding), speed controllers, shaft seals, baffles/guide plates, level & temperature measurement, CIP/cleaning accessories. We handle the compatibility check (vessel, medium, ATEX) and integration into pressure vessels and systems.

What agitator types are there and what are they suitable for?
Common types include propeller agitators for homogenizing, dissolver agitators for high shear and dispersing, anchor agitators for highly viscous media, and folding agitators for narrow vessel openings. Drives are pneumatic or electric, optionally with a gearbox and ATEX approval.
How do I size torque, speed and impeller?
Starting from viscosity, desired shear and vessel geometry, the impeller geometry is selected and from this torque and speed are derived. Adjust shaft length and guidance to the fill level, choose a suitable seal (e.g., mechanical) and consider ATEX requirements for hazardous areas.
Which factors influence mixing quality, degassing and cleaning?
Mixing quality is determined by impeller type, installation height/offset, baffles, tip speed and batch size. Degassing/foaming depend on speed and agitator position. For quick cleaning, smooth surfaces, CIP-capable components and media-resistant seals help.
