Lab Mixers
Simulate real-world conditions with S. Howes Lab Mixers.
Where simulation under various mixing conditions is required, S. Howes lab mixers are custom-engineered to provide accurate scale-up conditions before specifying or configuring production machines. S. Howes’ sales and engineering personnel can recommend a standard design for your application or work with you to develop a custom design, depending on your unique needs.
Lab mixers are available in Mixall, ES, and Sanimix styles and range from 1/3 to 4 cu. ft. working capacity. These mixers can be furnished in carbon steel, stainless steel, or special alloys and can be customized with heating or cooling jackets. If the features you need are not listed, call to see how we can develop a solution to meet your requirements.
Let our engineers design a custom lab mixer to validate your next mixing application.
