Product Data
PadMixer® System
One contact material high
performance mixer
Overview
The PadMixer system is a 'paddle' based mixing
technology equipped with a PLC for recipe controlled,
high performance mixing. It is especially suited to
challenging applications, such as those involving very
heavy powder loads or high viscosities.
The PadMixer system uses an innovative biocontainer
design, allowing a non-invasive connection between
the single-use mixing biocontainer and the hardware.
Mixing is initiated when the integrated paddle inside
the biocontainer rotates within. Speed, direction and
frequency of rotational change can all be controlled
by the operator and/or programmable recipe. The
PadMixer system performs well for challenging
mixing activities.
Innovative biocontainer design includes a single-use mixing
paddle that rotates within the biocontainer.
The PadMixer system uses single-use mixing systems
made from Allegro™ TK8 bioprocess film. The productcontacting layer of the Allegro TK8 film is blow-extruded
in-house by Pall Life Sciences under cleanroom
conditions, using medical-grade ultra low-density
polyethylene resin. It is then laminated to create a gas
barrier film of exceptional cleanliness, strength and clarity
that is animal derived component free (ADCF) and
complies fully with USP Class VI requirements.
PadMixer systems come
in different sizes and
configurations and are
easily relocated.
