Lifting Equipment for High Shear Mixers

A leading manufacturer of High Shear Mixers approached Packline Materials Handling to assist in developing a lifting device that they could offer their customers as a safe and reliable means to handle their range of high shear mixer heads.

Utilizing the technology used on Packline’s ‘Compac’ range of lifting equipment, a purpose designed lifting machine and attachment was designed to lift and lower the mixer head assemblies in and out of mixing vessels.

Because the majority of applications would be in clean room environments, where hygiene and resistance to chemicals was of paramount importance, the shear mixer head lifter was produced in stainless steel.

To enable access to large diameter mixing vessels, the high shear mixer lifting equipment was designed with a wide leg span.

Built to meet the latest international health and safety directives, the high shear mixer lifting equipment incorporates many features ensuring both operator safety and ease of use:

Electrical overload trip
Emergency stop button
Lift and lower travel limit switches

Manufactured with three different attachments and catering for loads of up to 110kg, the lifter covers the complete standard range of high shear mixers, and for those special applications Packline offers a full bespoke design service.

Technical Specification:

Maximum Capacity = 110kg
Load Centre = Dependent on requirements
Attachment Mass = 10-30kg
Main Materials = Stainless Steel 304
