About Magmix

Interchangeable Mixing Heads

From Stock - Magmix Engineering hold a range of ' standard ' mixing heads to suit most applications
Custom Made-We can design and manufacture mixing heads to meet specific requirements

The stainless steel (AISI 316L) heads are hygienic with minimal contact surfaces, which are crevice free. They are compatible with pharmaceutical, healthcare and food requirements. Simplicity of design assures maintenance free operation. The mixing head bearing is lubricated by process fluid, During operation, magnetic flux between permanent magnets acts to levitate the bearing surfaces and thus minimises bearing wear.

Transferable Drive Unit

The external drive unit of Magmix is attached to the process vessel using:

  1. Bolted Flange
  2. Bayonet Clamp
  3. Tri Clover Clamp, depending on the unit chosen

A single drive unit can be fitted sequentially to several process vessels, each equipped with vessel pads, thus providing cost effective mixing in several vessels.

Control Panels

Stainless steel or composite control panels consisting of an enclosure incorporating the following options.

  1. Air DrivenAir driven control panel
    Full air system controls no electrics
    giving step-less speed control
    0 to 500 rpm using 6 bar lubricated air.
  2. Electrically DrivenElectrically driven control panel
    Door interlock isolator.
    Start and stop buttons.
    An inverter suitable for the MagMix unit selected.
    Running power on and inverter trip indicators.
    Motor speed potentiometer.
    Plug socket for connection of drive unit, including cable.
    Low voltage control and safety circuits.
    Circuit breakers for protection of control circuit and inverter.
    Facilities for wiring of external safety interlock switching for inhibiting of motor drive.
    Protection to IP55.
    Models MM4, MM6, MM8, MM12 require single-phase supply, MM32 and MM64D require three phase supply.
  3. Hydraulically Driven
    A hydraulic power pack can be supplied for the control of the hydraulic unit if selected, giving the same stepless speed control as the electric or air versions.

Bearings

bearings

MagMix bearing consists of a pair of special grade tungsten carbide mirror finished plain bearings. The static bearing half is fitted to the vessel pad with a special aseptically designed retaining nut. For more aggressive medias a Silicon Carbide Bearing can be offered as an alternative

Adapter Kit

An adaptor kit for the MagMix MM12 enables it to be fully interchangeable with some of the other magnetic mixers of similar size, current on the market. The kit can be used in three ways:

  1. To drive impellers of another make
  2. Drive units of another make, which can drive one of the MagMix Mixing heads
  3. MagMix can be retrofitted to most vessels containing a weld plate of another make, negating the need to modify the vessel.
