The Ink Mixing Stirrer is an industrial-grade agitator engineered for effective mixing, pigment dispersion, and prevention of ink settling. Ideal for applications involving printing inks, coatings, and solvent-based liquids, it delivers consistent performance in 200-liter drums, IBC containers, or open mixing tanks.
Designed to ensure uniform color distribution, stable viscosity, and repeatable batch quality, the stirrer is available in both pneumatic (air-driven) and electric motor-driven models. Its construction features SS316L stainless steel shafts and impellers, offering superior resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure.
Built for continuous operation, the SAN Stirrer is well-suited for use in hazardous environments or ATEX-certified zones, making it an excellent choice for printing facilities, ink production plants, packaging industries, and chemical processing operations.
