Agitators

An agitator is a tool for mixing different substances such as two liquids or a liquid and a solid, etc. It is used for chemical reactions, compounding, dispersion, adsorption, and heat transfer. A wide range of materials can be stirred, from high-viscosity materials such as mortar to low-viscosity materials such as water-based paint. Types include portable and screw. The portable type is convenient to carry because it can be easily installed and removed. The screw is the bladed portion of an agitator. There are three-bladed propellers and turbine blades. Three-bladed propellers are used to stir liquids. Turbine blades are used when melding solids, etc. It is necessary to select an agitator of a type and wing shape that are appropriate for the material to be agitated.
