  • 1,000-gallon (3,785 L) tanks have a mix circuit with four tank guns to deliver a fast and thorough yield

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.
