Industrial Agitator for Liquid Detergent Production

Overview

The Vertical Agitator for the production of liquid detergents is equipment designed to ensure the perfect homogenization of surfactants, thickeners and fragrances in industrial processes. Efficient mixing is crucial to avoid phase separation and ensure the stability of the final product, meeting the rigorous quality standards of the sanitizing sector.

With 15 years in the industrial agitation and mixing solutions market, Agimix develops robust systems that optimize large-scale production. Our equipment is custom-sized to integrate perfectly with the reservoirs that the customer already has, as we only supply our own tanks for volumes of up to 10,000 liters. For higher capacities, we deliver the complete agitation system ready for installation at the manufacturing plant.

The use of an Lateral/Horizontal industrial agitator is highly recommended for large tanks, offering high performance combined with ease of installation and maintenance. These systems guarantee superior operational efficiency, promoting the adequate circulation of viscous fluids without generating excessive aeration, a critical factor in the manufacture of detergents.

Developed with advanced engineering, our industrial agitators maximize the efficiency of production processes. The optimized design of the impellers significantly reduces energy consumption, ensuring continuous high operational performance, even in the intense work cycles required by the chemical industry.

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers to the most common questions about this equipment and its application.

What is an agitator for liquid detergent production?

The agitator for liquid detergents is an industrial piece of equipment responsible for mixing water, surfactants, thickeners and essences homogeneously. It guarantees the chemical and physical stability of the sanitizer, preventing separation of the components in the bottle.

What is the difference between the vertical and lateral agitator in the manufacture of sanitizers?

The Vertical Agitator is installed at the top of the tank, ideal for complete mixing in smaller or medium volumes. The Lateral/Horizontal Industrial Agitator is fixed to the lower side, making it the perfect choice for large capacity tanks, promoting excellent circulation with lower installation costs.

How to avoid foam formation when agitating detergent?

Foam prevention occurs through precise control of rotation speed and the use of impellers with a specific design for low shear. Our equipment uses frequency inverters to adjust agitation, minimizing product aeration.

Does Agimix supply large tanks for the detergent plant?

Agimix only manufactures tanks for volumes up to 10,000 liters. For higher capacities, we supply the complete agitation system, which is designed and installed directly in the reservoir that the customer already has in their industrial plant.

What material is used to manufacture the shaft and propellers?

The parts in contact with the product are manufactured in 304 or 316L Stainless Steel. This choice guarantees maximum resistance to corrosion caused by the chemical agents present in the formulation of detergents and liquid soaps.

Does the equipment consume a lot of electricity?

No, Agimix shakers are developed with advanced engineering to maximize efficiency. Correct sizing of the gearmotor and propeller profile drastically reduces energy consumption while maintaining high operational performance.

Is it possible to mix high viscosity fluids with this agitator?

Yes, the equipment is designed to handle different viscosity levels. For thicker products, we use higher torque motors and turbine or anchor type impellers, ensuring complete movement of the fluid throughout the tank.

How is the side agitator maintained in full tanks?

The Lateral/Horizontal Industrial Agitator can be equipped with a shut-off system. This mechanism allows the mechanical seal or gasket to be changed without the need to empty the tank, ensuring high availability of the production line.
