The FlackTek™ Advantage
Your R&D quality process production innovation design
is only as good
as your mixer.
Mixing effectiveness comes down to capability, quality, time, and repeatability.
The FlackTek SpeedMixer® is a bladeless mixer – commonly known as a planetary or dual asymmetric centrifugal mixer.
The FlackTek™ is renowned for its ability to process a large variety of material forms, from high to low viscosity, dry to wet – mixing, grinding, dispersing, degassing – fast (seconds to minutes), no bubbles, and no cleanup needed.
Our machines can be found everywhere, from lab scale applications to industrial manufacturing. FlackTek™ is the perfect fit for any industry or application that requires precision and repeatable results.
