The HVM impeller generates maximum shear force under laminar flow conditions in high viscosity fluids through its narrow blade geometry. Its highly flexible modular design enables bi-directional rotation and adapts to different mixing stages. With optional internal baffle plates, it maximizes near-wall shear force, delivering excellent performance in dense materials such as adhesives, polymers, creams and greases.
The HVM is a high viscosity mixing impeller manufactured by Mechanimix. It operates across a diameter range of Ø200–2500 mm and a viscosity range of 500–100,000 cP. Its narrow blade geometry generates maximum shear force under laminar flow conditions, making it the preferred choice for mixing dense materials such as adhesives, creams and greases in the food, cosmetics, polymer, paint and pharmaceutical industries.
The narrow blade profile generates maximum shear force in the near-wall clearance, ensuring effective mixing of dense materials.
The highly flexible modular system enables rapid adaptation to different process stages and easy configuration changes.
The ability to rotate in both directions provides flexible operation during mixing and discharge stages.
Optional internal baffle plates provide flow redirection and enhanced shear force capacity.
Short mixing times and effective flow distribution deliver excellent heat transfer capacity.
The blade design and bi-directional rotation enable fast and complete tank discharge.
