Stainless Steel Mixing Tank – Hygienic Blending Solution
Stainless Steel Mixing Tank – Hygienic Blending Solution
Explore our stainless steel mixing tank designed for high-performance blending in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical industries. GMP-compliant, customizable, and available with heating, cooling, and automated control.
Product Features and Benefits
1. Food- and Pharma-Grade Stainless Steel (304 / 316L)
Manufactured using SUS304 or SUS316L stainless steel to ensure corrosion resistance, hygiene, and long service life. Ideal for food-grade, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic production environments where contamination control is critical.
Customer Benefit: No risk of product contamination, meets GMP/FDA compliance, and supports long-term use even with acidic or alkaline materials.
2. Flexible Mixing Mechanism
Available with top-entry, bottom-entry, or magnetic agitators. Mixing blade types include anchor, paddle, turbine, and high-shear emulsifiers, depending on viscosity, shear sensitivity, and product characteristics.
Customer Benefit: Consistent and uniform mixing for a wide range of materials from thin liquids to high-viscosity pastes or emulsions.
3. Integrated Heating & Cooling Jacket
The tank is equipped with a dimple or full jacket for circulating heating or cooling media (steam, water, glycol). Insulation layer is optional to reduce heat loss and maintain process temperature stability.
Customer Benefit: Energy-efficient thermal control for sensitive ingredients, supports temperature-controlled production lines.
4. Fully Sanitary Design with CIP/SIP Capability
Interior surface is mirror-polished to Ra ≤ 0.4μm with smooth welding, arc corners, and no dead angles. CIP spray ball and optional SIP system allow for automatic cleaning and sterilization.
Customer Benefit: Saves cleaning time, reduces contamination risks, and supports frequent product changeovers in regulated industries.
5. Customizable Port & Control Configurations
Each tank can be tailored with manholes, level sensors, sight glasses, temperature probes, bottom outlets, overflow protection, and integrated control panels (manual or PLC).
Customer Benefit: Modular design saves integration time and adapts to your factory's automation level and production needs.
6. High Structural Integrity and Load-Bearing Support
The frame, legs, and lifting lugs are reinforced for high-capacity operations, ensuring vibration-free and stable mixing even under full load.
Customer Benefit: Enhanced safety, reduced wear, and better durability for long-term production cycles.
7. Wide Capacity Range with Rapid Delivery
Standard models range from 50L to 20,000L, with customizable tank shapes (cylindrical, conical bottom, elliptical head) and delivery-ready inventory for popular sizes.
Customer Benefit: Fits both pilot scale and large-scale production. Faster lead times reduce project delays.

Applications
Our stainless steel mixing tanks are widely used in industries that require precision, hygiene, and efficiency in liquid mixing, heating, cooling, or dissolving processes. Whether it’s blending low-viscosity fluids or emulsifying high-viscosity creams, these tanks provide the performance and flexibility needed.
Food and Beverage Industry
- Preparation of sauces, syrups, dressings, and dairy products
- Mixing and dissolving sugar, powders, or concentrated liquids
- Fermentation or flavor infusion in breweries and juice processing
Pharmaceutical and Biotech Industry
- Liquid drug compounding and active ingredient blending
- Mixing saline, glucose, or sterile solutions under cleanroom conditions
- Culture media preparation, fermentation broth holding
Cosmetics and Personal Care
- Production of creams, lotions, serums, gels, shampoos, and conditioners
- Homogenizing colorants, thickeners, or plant extracts into base formulations
Chemical Processing
- Mixing of detergents, solvents, coatings, and emulsions
- Blending acid-alkaline solutions or reactive compounds under temperature control
Water and Environmental Treatment
- Mixing chemical dosing solutions (NaOH, HCl, PAC, etc.)
- Storage and agitation of coagulation/flocculation chemicals
These tanks are used in standalone batch mixing systems or as part of continuous production lines. With CIP/SIP integration and full automation support, they are a core part of modern hygienic processing systems.
