Packo Mixing and dispersing pumps

The Packo mixing and dispersing pumps deliver high‑performance pumping combined with intensive mixing, homogenisation and dispersion in one (electropolished) stainless‑steel unit. With smooth surfaces and no bacteria traps, the design supports fast clean-up and strict sanitary standards for food, pharma, cosmetics and chemical production.

WORKING PRINCIPLE 

The Packo mixing and dispersing pumps operate on a high-shear principle to combine, homogenise, and disperse liquids efficiently. Liquids or suspensions enter the pump and pass through a rotor–stator system or shear chamber, where high-speed rotation generates intense shear forces. These forces break down particles, blend immiscible liquids, and evenly disperse solids or gases, producing a uniform and consistent product.

For SFP2 and SFP3, the pumps use a self-pumping, high-shear rotor to mix liquids in-line, ensuring smooth operation and continuous processing. The CM (Colloid Mill) employs a toothed rotor and stator with an adjustable gap, providing precise control over particle size reduction and simultaneous mixing, making it ideal for emulsions, high-viscosity suspensions, and pulping applications.

The design of all Packo pumps ensures hygienic operation, with electropolished surfaces, no bacteria traps, and easy-to-clean clearances, allowing efficient, reliable, and safe processing across production lines.

APPLICATIONS

The Packo mixing and dispersing pumps are versatile solutions for a wide range of industries, including food and beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. They are ideal for:

  • In-line mixing and homogenisation of liquids with varying viscosities or specific gravities – e.g. blending milk and cream in a dairy production line.
  • Dispersing solids in liquids and gases in liquids – e.g. dissolving cocoa powder in chocolate production or aerating beverages.
  • Pulping or mashing bulky solids – e.g. creating fruit purees, tomato paste, or vegetable sauces.
  • Producing high-viscosity suspensions and emulsions – e.g. mayonnaise, lotions, or pharmaceutical gels.
  • Applications requiring hygienic processing, easy cleaning, and minimal downtime – e.g. dairy, juice, or cosmetic production lines that follow strict hygiene standards.

These pumps help operators achieve consistent, reproducible results, streamline production, and maintain high product quality and hygiene standards.

FAQs

1. What industries are the Packo pumps suitable for?

The Packo range is ideal for food and beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and chemical industries, where precise mixing, homogenisation, and dispersing are required.

2. Can these pumps handle high-viscosity products?

Yes. The SFP2, SFP3, and CM can process a wide range of viscosities, making them suitable for sauces, creams, lotions, emulsions, and high-viscosity suspensions.

3. How hygienic are these pumps?

All Packo pumps feature electropolished stainless steel surfaces, smooth construction with no bacteria traps, and easy-to-clean clearances around seals, ensuring compliance with strict hygiene standards.

4. Are the pumps energy efficient and quiet?

Yes. Packo pumps are designed for high efficiency, which saves energy, and operate very quietly, making them ideal for busy production environments.

5. What types of mixing can these pumps perform?

They can perform in-line mixing, homogenisation, dispersing solids or gases into liquids, pulping bulky solids, and producing stable emulsions or suspensions.

6. Can the pumps be used for continuous production?

Absolutely. Both the SFP2 and SFP3 are suitable for continuous in-line processing, while the CM allows precise control over particle size and high-shear mixing in continuous or batch operations.

7. How easy is maintenance?

Packo pumps are robust and designed for low maintenance, with standardized components for easy spare parts replacement and minimal downtime.

8. Can the CM adjust particle size?

Yes. The adjustable rotor–stator gap allows precise control of particle size, ensuring consistent and reproducible results for different products.
