Every MTI high performance mixer is designed for an
absolute homogeneous mixing of the substances in use.
Special applications do not only require material friction
to close up clusters or agglomerates in an adequate
time, also the installation of an additional chopper is
necessary. The chopper, mainly consisting of motor,
shaft with bearing and a set of mixing blades being
tangentially installed in the vessel, is most appropriate
for this function. Its position in the vessel is adapted to

can be well dispersed.

By means of a lance set into the vessel wall or lid the
fluid components are sprayed directly into the vortex.
