An emulsifying tank does not simply mix — it reduces one phase into another. The defining component is a high-shear rotor-stator head, and success is measured in droplet size and emulsion stability, not in how thoroughly the contents were stirred.
L&B builds emulsifying tanks in 304 and 316L stainless steel around a jacketed vessel that heats and cools. Configurations include atmospheric high-shear tanks; vacuum tanks that strip entrained air for denser, more stable creams; bottom-entry designs that emulsify effectively at low fill levels; and coaxial scraper tanks that continuously wipe the wall so product cannot scorch against the jacket.
Heating is your choice rather than our fixed design — electric, steam or thermal oil, matched to the energy available at your plant.
Cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food and chemical producers use them for creams, lotions, gels, ointments, sauces and liquid detergents.
