CAPABILITIES
MixUniX Laboratory

       

The research scope of the MixUniX Laboratory includes power measurement, flow field analysis, material characterization, and the development of integrated skid-mounted systems. In addition to standard laboratory instruments, the lab is equipped with advanced devices such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), Brookfield viscometers, rheometers, and laser particle size analyzers to support specialized mixing studies.


The laboratory currently operates cold-model and hot-model platforms ranging from milliliter to cubic-meter scale, and offers a wide range of impeller types to support diverse mixing investigations across various process conditions and materials.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can replicate flow patterns within vessels and process setups without being limited by scale, allowing reliable prediction of the mixing performance of large tanks, including those with unique geometries or specific process requirements.


The MixUniX R&D team has extensively applied CFD across a wide range of process scenarios, from simple single-phase mixing to complex multiphase suspensions and dispersions. This approach not only addresses a variety of challenging technical problems for customers but also provides robust numerical simulation capabilities that underpin and accelerate product development.

Load/No-Load Test

MixUniX provides load and no-load testing services for mixers. All testing procedures are conducted in strict accordance with applicable standards to ensure objective, accurate analysis and reliable recommendations.


The 29,000‑gallon (~110 m³) test tank accommodates mixers with motor power up to 250 HP (200 kW), shaft lengths up to 17.2ft (5.4 m), and impeller diameters up to 16.4 ft (5 m). It supports simultaneous testing of up to four mixer units and is equipped with an underwater camera system for real‑time monitoring of current, voltage, noise, speed, and vibration.


The no-load test platform supports mixers with shaft lengths up to 45.9 ft (14 m) and impeller diameters up to 26.4 ft (8 m).


By performing both no‑load and load tests prior to shipment, potential issues in design or manufacturing can be identified and resolved, ensuring the reliability of the delivered equipment.

Mixer Design Selection Process and Design Software

In mixer selection and design, MixUniX has established a comprehensive management and design software framework. Its proprietary design software not only incorporates a wide range of proven engineering calculation formulas but also integrates nearly three decades of valuable design expertise inherited from Greatwall Mixers. These field-validated insights provide highly valuable technical support and scientific guidance for the development of new mixer designs.
