Static Mixers for uniform mixing

In industrial dispensing technology, the quality of the end product depends significantly on the homogeneity of the mixed components. Static mixers are used to reliably combine two or more fluid media – such as resins, adhesives, or specialized lubricants. The functional principle is based on the continuous division and recombination of the media streams by fixed mixing elements inside the housing, without the use of moving parts.

Mixing occurs solely through the kinetic energy of the flow. As the media are forced through the nested geometries of the mixer, the mixing elements trigger an exponential formation of layers. The number and shape of these elements determine the mixing degree and must be adapted to the respective viscosity and mixing ratio of the components. Within the dispensing chain, a static mixer ensures that the medium is present at the application point in its precisely defined chemical and physical composition.
 

Product Specification

Manufactured as high-pressure resistant units for industrial use. The range includes various geometries and lengths to guarantee optimal homogenization across different viscosity intervals. The mixing elements are fluid-dynamically designed to minimize pressure loss within the mixer while providing sufficient shear force for complete mixing of the components. Available in media-resistant materials that guarantee a long service life, even with chemically aggressive media.

• Precision Geometry of Mixing Elements: 
  Defined division of the flow for seamless homogenization without dead zones or material entrapment.
• High Pressure Resistance: 
  The housings are validated for common system pressures in dispensing technology to prevent deformation or leakage under load.
• Chemical Resistance: 
  Use of materials that remain inert to the components being mixed as well as standard cleaning agents.
• Compact Design: 
  Optimized overall lengths allow for integration directly upstream of the dispensing valve or application nozzle, keeping the dead volume after the mixing process to a minimum.

The use of ABNOX static mixers prevents quality fluctuations caused by insufficient material cross-linking. By eliminating moving mixing tools, maintenance requirements are reduced, and the operational reliability of the dispensing system is increased. The precise coordination of the mixer geometry with the delivery capacity of the pumps ensures a constant viscosity and curing characteristic of the end product. Consequently, these components form the technological foundation for reproducible results in multi-component dispensing and protect the entire tribological chain from uneven media properties.
