IKA
® WORKS offers the most comprehensive line of high shear mixers, blenders and mixing systems in the industry.. Our product line includes batch and inline mixers, from laboratory to production scale. IKA® mixers are used for thousands of applications in the food, chemical, personal care and pharmaceutical industries. Select one of the links below to find out how an IKA® mixer can improve your product, and increase your production capacity.

In Line Mixers

IKA® offers the most versatile inline mixers in the industry, including a laboratory mixer that can be easily converted to any of six different mixer types. IKA®’s inline mixers utilize a modular design, making them extremely versatile. Mixers are available in single and multiple stage arrangements, where up to three mixing tools are arranged in series. All IKA® mixers have the capability of interchanging the mixing tools, so that the mixer can be modified to suit the application requirements. In addition, IKA®inline mixers maintain a consistent tip speed, no matter what the size, making them the most scalable mixers in the industry. Inline mixers:

DRS – Super Dispax Reactor™
is an ultra high shear mixer with 3 mixing tool options and up to three stages, with flow rates up to 175+ gpm.


Powder-Liquid Mixers

IKA® introduced the revolutionary MHD Powder-Liquid Mixer only a few years ago, and already this patented machine has received an award for its innovative design. The IKA® MHD is the only powder-liquid mixer that uses a mechanical feed method to draw in the solids, which reduces aeration. Other powder-liquid mixers rely on the venturi principle, or vacuum effect, caused by the fluid traveling at high velocity. In addition, highly viscous fluids and high concentrations are not a problem with the MHD. IKA® also offers the CMS for general purpose, powder-liquid applications. The CMS can incorporate high volumes of solids and quickly disperse them.

MHD – Powder-Liquid Mixer, mechanical feed is a high shear mixer offering up to 8 mixing tool options and 4 auger choices, with flow rates to 175+ gpm.


CMS – Powder-Liquid Mixer, vacuum feed
is a high shear mixer that produces a large vacuum to quickly incorporate large quantities of solids, with flow rates to 900+ gpm.


Batch Mixers

IKA® offers a wide variety of batch mixers, including high shear mixers, agitators, stirrers and jet mixers. IKA® also offers several laboratory mixers for use in the laboratory or pilot plant. A wide variety of mixing tools is available on our batch mixers, and other options are available for sealing and mounting. Batch mixers:

Colloid & Cone Mills

The Colloid Mill MK is suitable for very fine emulsions and suspensions. The MK utilizes a three stage, rotor and stator, with an infinitely adjustable gap which allows the milling action to be optimized according to the application. The three stages have reversing grooves with increasingly fine serrations, that result in a uniform product. The Cone Mill MKO is a unique IKA® innovation that utilizes a three stage, rotor and stator which are surfaced with an extremely hard and abrasive surface coating. The MKO provides an even finer and more intense milling action than a colloid mill. IKA® mills:

MK – Colloid Mill: has an adjustable gap rotor and stator with three stages, and serrated teeth, capacities to 350+ gpm.
MKO – Cone Mill: has an adjustable gap rotor and stator with three stages, and abrasive coating, capacities to 25+ gpm.


Laboratory Mixers
IKA® offers laboratory mixers for inline and batch processes. Our versatile and innovative designs are unparalleled in quality and functionality. Every IKA® laboratory mixer offers a wide variety of mixing tool options and accessories. Scale-up to production from the laboratory is achieved through consistent tip speeds and mixing tool geometries. Inline laboratory mixers can be equipped with a re-circulation loop and a vessel for simulating a batch or semi-continuous systems. Other accessories include a speed controller, dosing pumps, solids feeders and more. Batch mixers have an optional attachment that converts them into an inline mixer, and a wide variety of mixing tool options. Inline and batch mixers:


Laboratory Mixers for Inline:
Labor-Pilot™: is an inline mixer with a pressure rating of 50 psi, and a nominal flow rate of 1.5 gpm. It has a modular design that allows it to be fitted with six different types of mixer heads, and each mixer type has as many as four different mixing tool options. It is the most versatile laboratory mixer on the market.

Continuouse | Batch | Dilustion PlantsMaster Plant
Systems for Inline Processes: continuous mixing systems that incorporate high quality IKA® mixers and blenders. The systems can be designed to meter, dispense, mix and transfer all in one turnkey package. Electronic controls can be simple, manual type of operation, or very sophisticated designs with automatic controls and graphical interfaces. IKA® has many standard designs that can be adapted to the application, or can design a totally custom system according to the customer’s requirements. Dilution plants, foaming systems, fuel blending systems, powder-liquid mixing plants and edible oil systems are just a few of the turnkey packages that IKA® has designed and built for our customers.
Plants for Batch Processes: plants in any size can be custom designed, or selected from our standard offering from 5 to over 500 gallons. IKA® mixers and blenders are combined with quality vessels, and auxiliary equipment to provide a complete turnkey plant.
Dilution Plants DPV: in order to reduce transportation costs, many materials are supplied in a highly concentrated form that requires dilution prior to use. A continuous mixing system is required that can take two or more streams of material and instantly disperse the materials into a uniform product, without re-circulation. IKA® designs and manufacturers systems for this purpose, and has a complete line of standard systems that are customized to the application. IKA® DPV Dilution Plants include pumps, flow meters, mixers, controls, and everything needed for a complete turnkey system.
Master Plant :The new, pioneer mixing concept of the Master Plant guarantees for highest product quality and extreme shortening of production times.
The heart of the plant is the dispersing machine DBI 2000/.. directly mounted to the vessel. The machine has a two stage design which, contrary to usual systems, does not force you to make compromises.
