Many small‑scale cosmetic and detergent workshops are troubled by limited floor height and inflexible fixed mixing equipment. Our 200L movable mixing tank with horizontal side motor solves these real‑world pain points. Different from top‑drive mixing tanks, its agitator motor is installed horizontally on tank side, greatly lowering overall equipment height to adapt low‑ceiling workshop space.
This unit is purely configured for liquid blending work, without bottom homogenizer. It does not perform high‑shear emulsification, focusing on fast and even stirring of ready‑mixed liquid raw materials. The whole tank assembly sits on heavy‑duty casters, so there is no need to fix the machine on concrete foundation. You can move the full tank between batching area, filling position and washing area, which improves production flow flexibility and reduces material transfer pump investment.
Manufactured from SUS304 stainless steel as standard, inner tank is finely polished for easy manual rinse and CIP auxiliary cleaning. Simple control circuit keeps failure rate low, friendly for operators without rich mechanical experience. It is widely adopted for trial production and small‑batch manufacturing of shampoo, body wash, liquid hand soap and cleaning agents. For special corrosive formulas, SUS316L material can be selected.
Core Advantages
Low overall height by horizontal side‑mounted motor, well‑suited for low‑ceiling plant or pilot lab
Mobile caster design, foundation‑free installation, flexible workflow rearrangement
No bottom homogenizer, dedicated for liquid mixing, lower purchase and maintenance cost
Compact overall dimension, occupies little workshop floor area
Simple electrical control system, easy daily operation and troubleshooting
Hygienic stainless‑steel construction, convenient tank interior cleaning
Application Scenarios
Perfect for pilot trial batch, small‑volume commercial production, formula verification laboratory. Applied to mixing non‑emulsified liquid products: shampoo, shower gel, liquid soap, hand wash, floor cleaner and other household liquid detergents.
Important Reminder: This equipment has no homogenizing assembly. It cannot process cream, paste or material requiring high‑shear emulsifying treatment.
FAQs
Q1: What benefit does horizontal side motor bring compared with top‑mounted motor?
A: Horizontal side‑mounted motor cuts down total tank height. If your workshop ceiling is relatively low, you can still place and run this mixing tank normally. It also avoids motor contamination risk from material splashing from tank top opening.
Q2: Do I need to make fixed ground installation for this 200L movable mixing tank?
A: No fixed foundation or anchor bolt is required. Just place it on flat solid floor. Remember to lock casters firmly before stirring cycle to prevent accidental sliding.
Q3: What kind of materials are not fit for this tank?
A: It is not suitable for thick paste, cream and materials that need high‑shear emulsification processing, because there is no bottom homogenizer inside. It works best for free‑flowing low‑medium viscosity liquids.
Q4: Can I move the tank when it is fully filled with liquid?
A: We do not recommend moving full‑loaded tank. Suggest transferring after partial discharging, to reduce casters stress and avoid liquid sloshing‑out risk.
Q5: Is the horizontal agitator shaft sealed reliably?
A: It adopts high‑quality mechanical seal on side shaft penetration position, preventing liquid leakage. Regular visual inspection for seal part is suggested in daily operation.
Q6: Can I add heating function at later time after receiving machine?
A: Heating jacket shall be manufactured together with tank body. Retrofit heating on existing finished tank is not feasible. Please confirm heating requirement at ordering stage.
Q7: What is the suggested batch size for stable running?
A: Tank nominal capacity 200L. Suggested practical batch range: 100‑150L. Too low liquid level will cause poor stirring effect. Over‑filling will trigger liquid splashing.
Q8: What after‑sales support can you provide?
A: We supply complete English operation manual and exploded spare‑part drawing. Remote video guidance is available for operation trouble‑shooting. Consumable sealing parts can be supplied together with order or as spare‑part order separately.
Q9: Are different impeller styles available to match different liquid property?
A: Yes. Paddle impeller, anchor impeller can be selected according to your liquid viscosity, helping you achieve better mixing result.
Q10: Can this tank work together with your filling machine?
A: Very compatible. You can move this mixing tank directly beside filling machine for feeding, reducing intermediate material‑transfer steps for small production line.
