Overview

Homogenizers are machines that reduce particle size and create stable emulsions or dispersions by applying mechanical shear, pressure, or ultrasonic energy. Used across food, pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetic, and biotech industries, they ensure consistent texture, improved shelf life, and uniform product quality. Models range from laboratory bench-top units to industrial high‑pressure systems and rotor‑stator or ultrasonic designs for different production scales and viscosities.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used homogenizer?

Inspect service records, operating hours, seals and pistons (for high‑pressure units), rotor/stator wear, and electrical controls. Confirm parts availability and ask about previous product types to assess contamination risk.

How do I arrange safe shipping for a homogenizer?

Use a carrier experienced with process equipment. Drain fluids, secure movable parts, protect sensitive components, and provide weight/dimensions and any hazardous materials details. Ask about lift requirements and on‑site unloading.

What regular maintenance does a homogenizer need?

Follow scheduled inspections of seals, valves, bearings, and rotors/stators. Replace wear parts on interval, keep lubrication up to date, clean and sanitize per product, and perform pressure and performance checks.
