Agitators Options

Processtec agitators are engineered in California for sanitary and efficient mixing of liquids, powders, and high-viscosity products. Built for durability and long service life, they deliver reliable performance and easy maintenance across demanding production environments.

Designed for food, beverage, personal care, paint, and chemical processing, our agitators ensure stable, controlled results even under challenging process conditions. Homogenizing, dispersing, temperature control, and de-airing are performed efficiently and gently due to the optimized hollow-body impeller design.

Processtec agitators are CIP-capable, energy-efficient, and engineered for consistent product quality and dependable long-term operation.

ViscoMix

The Processtec ViscoMix is engineered in California for efficient processing of viscous and particulate products. Its converging hollow-body impellers create both vertical and horizontal circulation, allowing thorough and controlled mixing with reduced energy demand.

Designed for delicate and high-viscosity applications, the ViscoMix handles everything from yogurt to sauces with particulates such as berries, diced vegetables, and tomato pieces without damage. It provides gentle treatment, consistent product texture, and reliable performance across a wide range of production environments.

Flexible in installation, the ViscoMix can be mounted on the top or bottom of a tank and retrofitted into existing silos and vessels, offering a practical upgrade path for existing facilities.

All systems are built for long service life, CIP capability, and minimal maintenance requirements.

VM1 (Top-Mount)

The VM1 Top-Mount agitator provides reliable mixing performance for sanitary processing across food, beverage, dairy, pet food, and personal care industries. It is designed for efficient tank-top installation and supports a wide range of viscosities and process conditions.

When equipped with a bottom bearing, the VM1 gains additional shaft stability, enabling a smaller and lighter shaft design. This reduces mechanical load, retrofit effort, and power consumption while maintaining strong mixing performance.

The bottom bearing uses a food-grade, CIP-capable plastic design and can be removed from outside the tank for easy maintenance. The VM1 is built for long service life, dependable operation, and hygienic performance.

VM2 (Bottom-Mount)

The VM2 Bottom-Mount agitator is engineered for tall tanks, silos, and high-volume processing vessels. Installed at the base, it provides stable and efficient mixing without long shafts or top-heavy assemblies, reducing material requirements and improving mechanical reliability.

Bottom installation eliminates spray shadows and ensures full product circulation. The VM2 design allows convenient access to motor and gearbox for fast maintenance. It is also available in custom Flow-Balance Tank configurations, which can be certified as pressure vessels. With Smart-Connect capability, multiple tanks can operate in series for continuous processing.

Processtec’s proprietary GS-Fusion connection provides the most sanitary bottom-mount installation available.
