HVM Impeller High Viscosity Impeller

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.

OVERVIEW

Narrow Blade Modular High Viscosity Impeller

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.

Narrow Blade Geometry

The narrow blade profile generates maximum shear force in the near-wall clearance, ensuring effective mixing of dense materials.

Modular Design

The highly flexible modular system enables rapid adaptation to different process stages and easy configuration changes.

Bi-Directional Rotation

The ability to rotate in both directions provides flexible operation during mixing and discharge stages.

Baffle Plates

Optional internal baffle plates provide flow redirection and enhanced shear force capacity.

Excellent Heat Transfer

Short mixing times and effective flow distribution deliver excellent heat transfer capacity.

Easy Discharge

The blade design and bi-directional rotation enable fast and complete tank discharge.
