Inline Mixers
(Static and Dynamic)

The Inline Philosophy: Not all mixing happens in a tank. For continuous processes, dosing loops, or rapid heating, mixing must occur directly in the pipe. Liquitec offers two distinct technologies to achieve homogeneity "on the fly".

The Passive Path (bio-m® SM): A static mixing solution that utilizes the flow energy of the fluid itself. Zero moving parts, zero maintenance, and absolute reproducibility.

The Active Path (bio-m® Dynamic): A motorized inline mixer for applications requiring defined shear forces independent of the flow rate. The hygienic design assures perfect CIP & SIP results. Also ideal for low share mixing tasks where the share forces must be as low as possible. For example fruit & white yoghurt mixing.

Advantages

bio-m® SM - Static Mixing:
The "Install & Forget" Standard"

The bio-m® SM relies on helical mixing elements to repeatedly divide and recombine the flow stream.

Zero Maintenance:Standard agitators stop mixing once the level drops below the blade, forcing you to discard the "heel" volume. In a 3-stage process train, this can waste almost 30% of the batch or in 500 liters you lose almost 140 liters.

Hygienic Design: Our deep-set impeller maintains full turbulent flow and homogeneity down to the absolute last drop. You recover almost 100% of your valid product, every single batch. In a couple of batches, this system pays for itself in recovered yield alone.

Defined Residence Time: Unlike a tank where some fluid circulates longer than others, the static mixer ensures every drop of product experiences exactly the same mixing history.

 Dynamic Mixing:
Decoupled Control

Sometimes, flow energy isn't enough.

Shear vs. Flow:In a static mixer, mixing energy depends on how fast you pump. In the bio-m® Dynamic, we decouple this. You can run a low flow rate but spin the mixer at high speed to create intense shear. This is critical for creating stable emulsions (oil/water) or breaking down agglomerates.

Low Pressure Drop: Because the dynamic element actively moves the fluid, it creates significantly less back-pressure than a static mixer, which acts as a flow restriction.

Static Mixer Configuration (bio-m® SM) 

Mixing Elements
Available in 6-element (L1) or 12-element (L2) lengths. For simple blending, 6 elements suffice; for difficult viscosities, 12 elements ensure full homogeneity.

01
The "Pre-Mix" Injection Trick
For dosing small additives (e.g., pH adjustment or colors), we offer an Integrated Injector. This nozzle doses the additive directly upstream of the first element in the center of the flow, maximizing efficiency and saving pipe length.
02
Materials
 From standard 316L (1.4435) to exotic alloys like Hastelloy C22 (2.4602), Titanium, or fully PTFE-lined units for aggressive acids.

Dynamic Mixer Options

Sealing Technology

We offer our liquitec bio-m® LS - Lip Seal in various configurations to meet your specific process application and your expectations in terms of hygienic design or sterilisation needs.

Temperature Control

Optional Double Jackets allow for heating or cooling directly
during the mixing process, ideal for crystallization or
pasteurization loops or for "cool down" sensitive products.

  • Process Connections

Both series integrate seamlessly into your piping:
​
  • DIN 11866 Welding Ends (Standard).
  • Tri Clamp according DIN32676 or Aseptic Unions acc. DIN11864 as well as sterile connections with liquitec's bio-plus® standard.
  • Flange connctions acc. DIN EN 1092

How to Order bio-m® Inline Mixers

bio-m® Inline Mixers components can be selected based on your application, vessel volume, viscosity, mixing task, surface and material. A custom made piece of equipment to perfectly fit your process.
