A mixing or stirring system that is integrated into a complex process always requires careful individual preparation. With its own R&D and design departments, Typhoon is able produce innovative systems, which can satisfy the ambitions of individual clients. No ambitions are unrealistic – that’s a point of departure for us...
| Typhoon Coaxial Mixing System |
Typhoon’s coaxial mixing system is ideal for mixing in reactors, in which polymerisation processes take place and in which the viscosity curve can vary enormously. For cases where dispersion has to be carried out in the highly viscous stage also, and where (temperature) changes are necessary along the tank wall in order to achieve optimum transfer from the tank wall to the product, Typhoon has developed a co-axial mixing system. This system consists of a centrally mounted High Shear mixer in combination with axially pumping scrapers. The scrapers remove the product that adheres to the tank wall during the process. Consequently, despite the high viscosity an optimum interchange takes place, which is axial throughout the entire tank and also both turbulent and laminar. The system can be carried out at high temperatures, under full vacuum conditions and – if required – in accordance with ATEX standards.
Typhoon Magstir is a mixing system with a drive system located outside the tank. The energy (speed and capacity) is drawn by the stirring element in the tank from a magnetic field. This system precludes all possible forms of emission.
Because Typhoon Magstir can be combined with all Typhoon stirring systems, there is a very wide range of applications with the result that the system occupies a unique position in the market. The system allows mixing, stirring, suspension, homogenising, dispersal and emulsification all to take place in a sealed vessel, with the result that mechanical seals are superfluous and there is no possibility of contamination.

Typhoon manufactures stirring systems in stainless steel, which are used in particular in the food and beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors. The aseptic design of these stirring systems guarantees easy cleaning and prevents contamination (for example, in the form of corrosion or flakes of previously treated products). The construction of the stirring system with high quality stainless steel parts makes the use of protective caps or covers or other forms of protection redundant. Typhoon designs its stainless steel stirring systems in accordance with specific client requirements, in both directly- and indirectly-driven designs. Typhoon occupies a prominent position in this specialist market.
The IBC Stirring System is characterised by having a cross-member and a lifting tackle. This design makes the stirring system suitable for use with IBC containers. In cases where the throughput is too low for a standard element, the current solution is to fall back on a combination with SCO. On request, the design can be made compatible with IIA certificate standards (see photo).
