Optimize your ink or paint mixing processes with our Dissolvers.
Veenstra Technology has been active for many years in the field of top-entry, side-entry, bottom-entry mixers, column mixers and dissolvers. We have installed custom mixers and dissolvers for a wide variety of customers. Our mixers are applied by domestic companies as well as companies abroad and international companies. We are producing our Agitators, our Bulk loading systems and other products in our own factory. In this way, we can guarantee the highest quality machines and systems and we are able to think along with our customers.
What is a Dissolver?
Dissolvers or Dissolving agitators are process machines that fall under the category Agitators/Mixers. A dissolver is used for the preparation of paints and inks during predispersion. This is done to disperse organic or inorganic pigments and adjuvants lump-free in the solvent and binder.
Dissolvers can be used for larger, intensive work. A dissolver is very suitable for mixing paint, ink and solids. The dissolvers can be used with open tanks and all types of containers. We can supply tailor-made dissolvers, when necessary complete with PLC controls.
How do Dissolvers work?
With our Dissolvers, the dispersion is carried out by means of a stirring element. This stirring element is made up of a horizontal disc with tooth-shaped cutters in the circumference. In this way, Dissolvers can create high shear forces in viscous liquids, which makes it possible to produce homogeneous mixtures.
Let Veenstra design your Dissolver!
Veenstra has extensive experience in the engineering and production of agitators and mixers for open and closed vessels, the design of mixing solutions and in the mixing and dispersion of products with a low to very high viscosity. Our portfolio for stationary vessel mixers is divided into, among others:
- High Performance Dissolvers for wetting solids in the liquid phase using a fast rotating dispersing disc at speeds between 24-30 m/s.
- Dissolving column mixer, ideal for mixing liquids and dissolving powders, chips, pellets, etc. with a peripheral agitator speed of up to 15 m/s.
- Insertable mixers; Slow-running agitators with speeds of up to 3 m/s to prevent decantation, for curing color mixtures, circulation during degassing or for processing temperature-sensitive products.
The reliable, safe and economical operation of our agitators in various industries proves the quality of our machines and the flexibility of their application. Together with our customers in different sectors, we are constantly working on new technologies and we are continuously improving our existing products. We will find the right solution for your application. Whether it is a standard Dissolver or a custom machine, from a state-of-the-art machine to a fully integrated Turnkey solution.
