Anchors & Gates are close-clearance impellers that fit the contour of the container.
Wall scrapers can be mounted on the Anchor & Gate impeller blades to improve heat transfer with the wall and prevent sticking of pasty materials.
Anchors & Gates obtain adequate mixing under the laminar flow conditions encountered in high viscosity applications. These impellers sweep the whole wall surface of the vessel and agitate most of the fluid batch through physical contact.
Anchor & Gate impellers are used for liquid viscosities between 5,000 and 100,000 cPs. Typical applications include ink, paint, sauce, adhesive, cream, etc. There are many applications that other agitators are integrated with the Anchors & Gates.
