Workheads

A comprehensive range of workheads and screens is available for all Silverson high shear mixers. These easily interchangeable workheads offer great versatility by allowing any machine to be adapted to perform a wide range of mixing operations including emulsifying, homogenising, disintegrating, dissolving, dispersing, blending, particle size reduction and de-agglomerating. Changing from one head or screen to another is quick and simple.

General Purpose Disintegrating Head
Used for a wide range of applications, this head will give the greatest throughput. Suitable for the blending of liquids of similar or greatly varying viscosities, its uses include the disintegration of solid and semi-solid materials.

Square Hole High Shear Screen™
The configuration and fine internal tolerances of this stator provide exceptionally high shear rates which are ideal for the rapid size reduction of soluble and insoluble granular solids. It is also suitable for the preparation of emulsions, gels and thickeners and fine collodial suspensions.

Slotted Disintegrating Head
For the disintegration of fibrous materials such as animal and vegetable tissue, as well as the disintegration and solubilisation of “elastic” materials such as rubbers and polymers.

Emulsor Screens
These screens are suitable for liquid/liquid preparations and are especially useful for all emulsions. Emulsor screens are available in fine, medium or coarse perforations.
