The Cavitron 1008 chamber tool is a high-frequency homogenizer designed for fine-grain emulsions and dispersions, handling throughputs of 0.2 to 3.5 GPM with power requirements of 1.5 to 10 hp and a maximum RPM of 13,000. It employs concentric chamber rings that compress the medium up to 10 bar before rapid expansion, enabling shearing events of up to 500 million times per second. The tool is suitable for processing solid, liquid, gaseous, fibrous, and pasty media across pharmaceutical, food, biotechnology, chemical, cosmetic, and paper industries.
Operating at up to 13,000 RPM, Cavitron rotor/stator mixers can produce as many as 500 million cavitational episodes per second. Cavitron reactor systems are based on kinematic high-frequency technology. Revolutionary process is remarkably efficient, enabling Cavitron systems to handle throughputs that used to require much larger machines.
Cavitron tools consist of a series of concentric rings containing holes or slots. As the medium enters the center chamber, it is compressed at a pressure of up to 10 bar. One one-thousandth of a second later the chamber opens, and the medium explodes outward into the next chamber.
