Adelphi Group

Gate Stirrer

Our Gate Stirrer is engineered for the slow, controlled stirring of medium to high viscosity formulations, making it ideal for products such as creams, pastes, gels, thick sauces and similar semi solid materials. Designed to deliver thorough and uniform mixing without introducing excessive shear, it is the perfect choice for applications where product texture, integrity and consistency must be preserved.

Product details

  • Key Features
    • Designed for slow, low shear stirring
    • Ideal for medium to high viscosity products (10,000–100,000 cP)
    • Close tolerance construction matched to vessel shape
    • Consistent mixing coverage across the vessel
    • Typical operating speeds: 50-100 rpm
    • Product contact components in 316 stainless-steel (and PTFE with scrapers)
    • 0.4 μm Ra finish, with ground welds for hygiene and ease of cleaning
  • Match the Shape of Your Mixing Vessel
    Each stirrer is manufactured with close tolerances to precisely match the shape of your mixing vessel, ensuring full mixing coverage and efficient movement of viscous materials. Operating at typically 50-100 rpm, this low speed system provides effective agitation for viscosities between 10,000-100,000 cP.
  • 316L Stainless Steel Surfaces
    Contact surfaces are built from 316L stainless steel, with optional PTFE components when wall scrapers are included. All product contact parts are fully polished to 0.4 μm Ra, with carefully ground welds for optimal cleanability and hygienic performance.
  • Customisation Options
    Configure your Gate Stirrer to match your process:
    • Pivoted PTFE wall scrapers - clean vessel walls and improve heat transfer
    • Height adjustable central mixing blades
    • Motor options tailored to application requirements
    • Integration with a Pharma Hygiene Products mixing vessel system
  • Engineered for High Viscosity Mixing
    The Gate Stirrer’s robust, low shear profile makes it ideal for maintaining product quality when working with high viscosity materials. From cosmetic creams to food pastes, the design ensures effective agitation without damaging texture or structure.
