Products and services

• 1000 Series Medium Duty Open Tank Mixers Versatile medium-duty range of top entry mixers and agitators (motor, gearbox, and baseplate) for open tank applications. Suitable for tanks too large for direct drive mixers, with various mounting options including standard flat baseplate, raised baseplate, and angle riser. Designed for mining, water/wastewater, and industrial process customers requiring reliable open-tank mixing.
• 4000 Series Heavy Duty Open Tank Mixers Heavy-duty top entry agitators built for very large tanks, primarily in mining applications. Capable of handling tanks up to 80 feet in diameter by 80 feet high, with shafts manufactured over 70 feet long achieving run-out of only 1/8 inch, and gear drives incorporating up to 450 HP motors reaching 45+ tons.
• 2000 Series Top Entry Closed Tank Mixers Top entry mixers and agitators designed for closed and sealed vessels with multiple sealing arrangements including lip seals, packed glands, moat seals, and mechanical seals.
