Silverson’s Range Of Rotor/stator Workheads For Increased Versatility

Listen to this article

In a recent video, Silverson explains and demonstrates their range of workheads and
screens. These workheads allow any machine to be adapted to perform a wide range of
mixing operations including emulsifying, homogenising, disintegrating, dissolving,
dispersing, blending, particle size reduction and de-agglomerating.

So a Silverson mixer can be used in place of several pieces of mixing equipment, with
changing from one head or screen to another a quick and simple process.

General Purpose Disintegrating Head

The Silverson General Purpose Disintegrating Head is the most versatile of all of the
Silverson workheads, giving an exceptionally vigorous mixing action and the greatest
throughput. The General Purpose Disintegrating Head workhead is ideal for general mixing
applications and can be used across a range of industries.

  • Its uses also include:
  • the disintegration of solids and semi solid materials
  • the preparation of gels and thickeners
  • the preparation of suspensions, solutions and slurries
  • blending liquids or similar or greatly varying viscosities

Slotted Disintegrating Head

The Slotted Disintegrating Head is recommended for products which require the
disintegration of fibrous materials such as animal and vegetable tissue. It can also be used
for the disintegration and solubilisation of “elastic” materials such as rubbers and polymers.

Square Hole High Shear Screen

The configuration and fine internal tolerances of this stator provide exceptionally high shear
rates, ideal for the rapid size reduction of soluble and insoluble granular solids. It is also
suitable for the preparation of emulsions, gels and thickeners and fine colloidal suspensions.

Standard Emulsor Head and Emulsor Screen

Silverson Emulsor Screens are available in either fine or medium which is the standard.
These screens are ideal for liquid/liquid preparations and can be used where there is a
different in viscosity between liquids.
