BOSTON SHEARMILL

The Boston Shearmill® (BSM) series of inline wet mills surpasses the capabilities of conventional shear pumps and colloid mills by providing very high throughputs at extreme shear rates.

OVERVIEW

HIGH INTENSITY
  • Designed to run 24/7
  • Particle size reduction
  • Disperse, emulsify, pulverize, macerate, crush, homogenize
3-A COMPLIANT
  • Meets 3-A sanitary standard #73-01 and USDA-AMS standards
  • All stainless mix head, shaft, drive, and motor available
MODULAR
  • Wide ranges in capacity, power consumption and tip speed
  • 3 heads + 3 shear levels for a total of up to 9 shear zones in a single pass
EASY TO CLEAN
  • CIP with no crevices, deadlegs, or open threads
  • Reduce solids particles with minimal dust formation
  • Low maintenance design

How It Works

Admix-box-BSMBoston Shearmills are constructed of a multi-slot rotor turning at high speeds in close proximity to a multi-port stator. Each shear head of the homogenizer consists of a rotor and stator, each with a double ring design. This results in three distinct, high intensity work zones at each rotor / stator location where the mixture passes:

• between the first set of rotor slots or teeth and the first ring of slots on the stator
• between the first ring of slots on the stator and the second ring of slots in the rotor
• between the second ring of slots in both the rotor and stator

Models with three shear heads provide nine high shear work zones to handle your toughest processing needs.
They are capable of processing very high throughputs at extreme shear rates producing an average mean droplet size of 1-3 microns.
