Featured Products


Top Entry Batch Mixers

Batch Mixers

Silverson’s batch mixers emulsifies, homogenizes, solubilizes, suspends, disperses and disintegrates solids in addition to mixing. Silverson mixers outperform conventional mixers due to their precision-engineered Silverson rotor/stator workhead. As a result, it is able to cut process times by up to 90%. These mixers improve quality, product consistency and process efficiency.

Inline Mixer

In-Line Mixers

The action of any Silverson In-Line mixer can be modified with the use of rapidly interchangeable workheads. This enables any machine to mix, emulsify, homogenize, solubilize, suspend, disperse and disintegrate solids.

Silverson’s line of high shear In-Line mixers offers a great many advantages to the processor:

  • Speed
  • Versatility
  • Self-pumping
  • Aeration-free
  • Guaranteed Efficiency

Flashmix Powder/Liquid Mixers

FlashMix

The Silverson Flashmix takes a revolutionary approach to powder/liquid mixing by using a vacuum to pull in powders and forces powder into the liquid stream. This allows liquid to disperse and hydrate large volumes of powders and can be used at higher temperatures and with higher viscosity mixes. The Flashmix offers the advantages of high shear mixing to a wide range of applications that were previously not possible.

Steridose- Sterimixer® The Original Magnetic Coupled Mixer for Pharmaceuticals

About Steridose


Steridose was founded in the late 1970’s in Sweden with the purpose of developing innovative process components for aseptic manufacturing.  Steridose introduced technologies such as magnetically driven mixers and radial type diaphragm valves to the pharmaceutical industry in the 1980’s.  In the early 2000’s, the company became part of the Roplan Group, consolidating development and manufacturing.  Through the years, Steridose has developed an extensive distribution network with representation in over 30 countries and has a vast equipment installed base. Steridose continues innovating based on the feedback and needs of customers. In 2015, Roplan and Steridose formed Velcora Group.

The most common purpose of agitation in bio-pharmaceutical processing is liquid/liquid and solid/liquid blending (solutions and suspensions). Agitators are performing their duty while submerged in a fluid phase, and consequently designed for this intended use, considering that running in air would not fit any purpose. This article discusses different bearing designs and materials of construction typically available. Click here to read White Paper.

The Sterimixer may be the most widely used magnetically coupled mixer for bio-pharmaceutical applications world-wide.  It consists of the following major components: impeller, bearing, weld-plate, drive unit and control box.  All wetted parts of the impeller and the weld-plate are made of AISI 316 L (EN 1.4404).  Interchangeable impeller designs are available.

Sterimixer Features


  • Effective mixing
  • Mixing to the Last Drop
  • CIP/SIP Design
  • Removable drive-units
  • Bottom Mounted
  • Prevents sedimentation
  • Interchangeable Impellers
  • Low shear Design
