From lab mixers and pilot scale to full production

Quadro Liquids has a wide range of sanitary industrial mixing equipment that is suitable for liquid blending, powder dispersion & emulsification. Equipment is available in various sizes, from small-scale laboratory units to large-scale production systems. This makes them suitable for many mixing applications.

Powder Dispersers

The line continues with the Quadro® Ytron ZC. This inline powder dispenser is custom-engineered. It streamlines the incorporation of difficult-to-disperse ingredients in various applications. These include personal care and cosmetics, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.

This workhorse industrial mixer excels at inline single-pass and re-circulating powder applications. Featuring significantly minimized air entrainment and dramatically shorter dispersion times, this machine can slash batch times by as much as 90% compared to older, less efficient technologies.

Quadro ZC Inline Powder Dispersers

ZC Inline Powder Disperser

Quadro Ytron® ZC is a high shear powder disperser.  It has the ability to disperse difficult-to-wet powders in a single pass.

This disperser is inline, meaning it can work continuously. This includes rheology modifiers (for example, viscosity-building powders) into a controlled liquid stream. This makes it ideal for creating products with consistent viscosity and texture.

Homogenizers

The Quadro® HV-Emulsifier and Wet Mill is perfect for complex and delicate tasks such as submicron processing or suspension micronization. This product offers the best cost per kg-hr in the market. It is highly versatile, too. It can be used as either a homogenizer or a wet mill.

The Quadro® HV homogenizer series provides more shear energy than a conventional rotor-stator mill. It is perfect for processing submicron emulsions or for micronizing suspensions.

Advantages include:

  • finer particle sizes in far less time
  • easier cleaning and maintenance compared to competing machines,
  • and significant capital cost savings.

Selecting the right mixer

There are various myths surrounding high shear mixers that discourage people from using the equipment. However, selecting the right mixer is a matter of understanding how it will be used.

High speed industrial mixers are ideal for creating homogenous mixtures and emulsifications, even from traditionally difficult-to-blend materials.

In high shear mixing, a high-speed rotor applies enough velocity to generate shear, this reduces the size of particles to the point where they can be more easily combined with other substances. In rotor-stator high shear mixers, the stator creates a shearing action as well.
