Performix Mixing Systems
Our Performix® family of mixers delivers unmatched shearing, mixing and yield.
Bentonite is introduced to the system through a large diameter port, where it immediately encounters a high-speed jet stream. This high-speed stream is extremely effective at shearing and separating the bentonite plates, which dramatically speeds the yielding process.
- The result: maximum yield in shortest time.
- The benefit: less time mixing, more time drilling.
