The VRS
Rotor Stator Mixer
The Variable-Speed Rotor Stator is designed for high-speed dispersing, mixing, size reduction and deagglomerating at significant process savings. It creates mechanical shear by continuously drawing product components into the rotor and expelling them radially through the precision milled openings in the stator. Alternative options include the VHS High-Speed Disperser and ILD Inline Disperser.
- Disperse, emulsify, homogenize, dissolve, mill, mix and blend
- Improves high-speed dispersion of paints, resins, inks, coatings, adhesives and more
- Ultra-shear design achieves dispersion at a much faster rate than a standard high-shear blade
- Eliminates additional processes such as grinding, milling or additional mixing
- Reduces the toughest agglomerates in size, blends them with liquid additives, and wets them out to create a consistent dispersion
