The IBC Tote Mixer From EvenMix

Mar 23

The cubic shape and shipping pallet base of Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC totes) make them ideal for storing liquids and moving them around a facility. However, IBC tote tanks require mixing in order for the liquids to be evenly distributed. This is particularly important in the case of agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. Large-scale farming requires that these chemicals be mixed to ensure proper application and consistency. IBC tote mixers from EvenMix offer a simple and convenient solution to this problem.

The IBC Tote Mixer is a simple tool that can be used for a variety of applications in agriculture and farming in  Digital Drive Modes. In particular, it can be used to re-blend and re-homogenize settled and separated liquid formulations that have fallen to the bottom of the IBC tank over time. In addition, IBC tote mixers are able to quickly mix the contents of the container to re-suspend any settled solids that have accumulated.

IBC tote mixers can also be used to add new materials to an existing batch of a liquid or mixture. For example, a farmer can use an IBC tote mixer in order to add fresh water into an old batch of pond water to help keep it clean.

In the case of farm chemicals, IBC tote mixers can be used to stir a new batch of pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers before application. This can help to prevent the chemical from becoming ineffective over time due to oxidation or other factors.

A key benefit of IBC tote mixers from EvenMix is that they are safe to use because there are no spinning blades involved with the mixing process. Instead, the IBC tote mixer uses a series of compressed air or nitrogen gas pulses to create a series of large bubbles in the tank that mix the liquids and other materials in the container. This mixing process is much faster than traditional mechanical tote mixers and results in a significantly lower amount of shear that can damage the liquids and the containers.

Additionally, IBC tote mixers from EvenMix are easy to use and clean. They are portable and can be installed using a bridge mount or a smaller bung adaptor. The mixers can then be removed for cleaning and storage and easily reinstalled without the need to expose or risk contamination of the IBC tank contents. This makes it a safe and convenient option for mixing in totes where cross-contamination is a major concern.

IBC tote mixers from EvenMix can be purchased with a standard motor and shaft or a custom engineered version that is designed to meet specific project requirements. This includes varying the horsepower, shaft diameter and number of mixing impellers. In addition, extra features such as inline oilers and filing hoppers can be added to the mixers. This makes them an ideal choice for applications in agriculture and farming where the mixers are required to be customised in order to meet specific processing needs.
