Mixing in an industrial setting is a complex and nuanced task that demands precision and efficiency. At Chautauqua Chemical Company in Ashville, NY, blending powders and solids into liquids is a critical part of its daily operations.
However, achieving a perfect and consistent mix has long been a daunting task, plagued by issues such as solids settling at the bottom of the tanks and getting stuck in the corners. Traditional mixers have fallen short of addressing these problems, often requiring manual intervention to achieve the desired mixture.
This is where EvenMix steps in, revolutionizing the mixing process with its innovative design. EvenMix not only simplifies the mixing process but also ensures a uniform blend without operator assistance.
Let’s explore how EvenMix has transformed the operations at Chautauqua Chemical Company.
Tackling the Mixing Challenge
Industrial mixing is more than just combining ingredients. It is about achieving a seamless blend where every component is evenly distributed, ensuring consistency in every batch produced. At Chautauqua Chemical Company, this involves mixing various powders and solids into liquids, a process that comes with its own set of challenges.
One of the major hurdles is preventing solids from settling at the bottom or getting stuck in the corners of the tanks. Traditional mixers often necessitate frequent manual scraping to keep the materials in the mix.
The traditional boat-type propellers used in many mixers are particularly ineffective for cylindrical tanks, which are common in industrial settings. They can’t reach the tank corners, leaving residues that affect the mix’s uniformity.
As a result, operators have to use sticks or other tools to dislodge the materials manually, which is both time-consuming and inefficient. The need for a more effective solution led Chautauqua Chemical Company to EvenMix, and the results have been nothing short of transformative.
Real-World Testimonial: The EvenMix Advantage
Phil from EvenMix recently caught up with Jeremy Claypool of the Chautauqua Chemical Company to discuss their firsthand experience with EvenMix versus a competitor’s mixer.
“The competitor’s mixer doesn’t pull the material off the bottom the way the EvenMix does. The EvenMix blends much more evenly and quicker,” Jeremy explained.
This is a crucial improvement, especially when blending a high volume of solids. The EvenMix mixer’s ability to pull or push the solids off the bottom and integrate them flawlessly into the mix every time has significantly streamlined their process.
In contrast, the competitor’s mixer with a boat-type prop required manual intervention to ensure that materials stuck in the corners were incorporated into the mix.
However, with EvenMix, this problem was entirely eradicated.
"The EvenMix mixer pulls it out of the corners and off the bottom and mixes it in perfectly. You are able to go to break, and when you come back, it’s done!”
This statement underscores the efficiency and reliability of the EvenMix system, freeing operators from constant supervision and manual labor.
The Science Behind EvenMix’s Success
What makes EvenMix stand out in the crowded field of industrial mixers is its patented blade design and advanced engineering. Unlike traditional mixers that rely on simple rotary motion, EvenMix employs a 3D mixing action that ensures every particle is thoroughly integrated into the mix. This design innovation creates a homogeneous blend every single time without operator intervention.
Moreover, the EvenMix system enhances safety in the workplace. It eliminates the need for manual intervention and thus reduces the risk of accidents and injuries associated with the mixing process. Operators can set the mixer and leave it unattended, confident they will return to a perfectly blended batch. This not only improves productivity but also allows workers to focus on other critical tasks, optimizing overall operational efficiency.
In conclusion, EvenMix has revolutionized the mixing process at Chautauqua Chemical Company, providing a reliable, efficient, and safe solution for blending powders and solids into liquids. Transitioning to EvenMix simplified their operations and significantly improved their product consistency and operational efficiency.
