Mix liquids & solids without blades in seconds.A bladeless mixer from Japan mixes by simultaneously rotating a batch container and revolving it in a planetary motion that produces acceleration forces of 400 G and higher. Thinky Corp. of Japan, which has a U.S. office in Kennesaw, Ga., developed the multi-centrifugal mixer. Thinky says its new mixing principle generates both centrifugal centrifugal /cen·trif·u·gal/ (sen-trif´ah-gal) efferent (1). cen·trif·u·gal adj. 1. Moving or directed away from a center or axis. 2. and centripetal forces Centripetal force The inward force required to keep a particle or an object moving in a circular path. It can be shown that a particle moving in a circular path has an acceleration toward the center of the circle along a radius. . They are said to mix liquids and powders evenly in seconds while imparting no heat. They also deaerate Verb 1. deaerate - remove air or gas from de-aerate get rid of, remove - dispose of; "Get rid of these old shoes!"; "The company got rid of all the dead wood" down to submicron bubbles. The AR-Series of batch mixers comes in eight container sizes from a portable 100-cc model up to 10 liters. The technology was commercialized 15 years ago in Japan and introduced in the U.S. last year. Mixing is so thorough that it may reduce or eliminate the need for emulsifiers or solvents, Thinky says. It's used to mix silicone, urethane urethane (yoor´ithān´), n ethyl carbamate used as an anesthetic agent for laboratory animals, formerly used as a hypnotic in humans. , adhesives, and sealants.
