Heavy duty batch paddle mixer
Draiswerke, Inc.

The DRAIS Turbulent SuperFlusher® is a batch, heavy-duty horizontal mixer. It is designed to properly mix and knead press cake providing the energy to drive the water from the press cake. Additionally, the Turbulent SuperFlusher® mixing paddles impart the necessary shear for dispersion and drying of the press cake. Finally, Turbulent SuperFlusher® allows easy standardization of the dispersion and easy product discharge.

Ideally, it is desirable to have a flushing system that easily adapts to the constant changing conditions found in most pigment press cakes. Pigment lots change since pigment is generally produced in batches from various types of filter presses. At the same time the percent of solids varies with the different types and colors of pigments.

The most advanced flushing system; Drais Turbulent SuperFlusher® is easily adjusted by the operator and requires minimal power to operate. Flushing cycles are now as short as possible from start to finish, including standardization and pack out in one production shift.
