Agitator

An agitator may be a mechanical device that helps in shaking or stirring a liquid or mixture of liquids. Agitators are widely used for multiple operations within the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, grease, metal extraction, paint, adhesive, water, and cosmetic industries.

Various sorts of agitators are available for industrial purposes. The common sort of agitators are:

Paddle Agitators: Containing paddle-shaped blades, these agitators are the foremost basic types of agitators. Their capability is restricted and used mainly for laminar flow fluids requiring little shearing. they're adjustable and contain an equal number of forwarding and reversing paddles to move ingredients from one end of the vessel to the other. A modified version of paddle agitators is Sawtooth Paddle Agitators. The forward puddles of such agitators contain notches or saw teeth.

Anchor Agitators: For mixing highly viscous and non-Newtonian fluids, anchor agitators are widely used. Their name indicates the impeller shape that resembles an anchor. they're normally mounted in tanks and vessels with conical or rounded bottoms.

Propeller Agitators: For low viscosity products, Propeller agitators are highly suitable. Functions like homogenization, suspension, and dispersion are easily achieved using propeller-type agitators operating at medium to high speeds. These axial flow agitators are ideal for solid in liquid suspensions as they prevent the deposition of solid particles.

Blade Type Agitators: These are suitable for low and medium-viscosity fluids. Blade-type agitators are axial type.

Turbine Agitators: For emulsification and dispersion of fluids at very high speed, Turbine agitators are used widely. Turbine Agitators are characterized by highly effective mixing capability across a broad viscosity range. Turbine agitators have an axial input and radial output. They combine rotation and centrifugal motion during working

Helical Agitators: because the blades are arranged in a structure of a helix, they're known as helical agitators. Appearing sort of a threaded screw, helical agitators are axial flow agitators that provide vigorous motion within the vessel or tank. this sort of agitator is widely used in polymer industries.
At Right Fabricators, Agitators are designed according to the required fabrication demand from various industries as we supply our products to multiple business verticals.
