Two blades open as the speed rises which generates an axial flow in the container, from the top towards the bottom. Particularly recommended for stirring in narrow neck containers, e.g. flasks.
The blade automatically falls into line during rotation generates an axial flow in the container, from the top towards the bottom. Particularly recommended for stirring in narrow neck containers.
The fixed blade generates an axial flow in the container, from the top towards the bottom. Use at medium-high speed for whirling light solids, for flocculations, mixing thickening agents, and stirring sludge.
It generates an axial flow in the container with suction of the substance from the bottom towards the top with localised occurences of shearing forces.

Generates a tangential flow with reduced turbulence and gently mixes the product.
Generates a radial flow with suction of the product from the top towards the bottom, with high turbulence and high shearing forces.
Generates an axial flow in the container with suction of the substance from the top towards the bottom with low shearing forces. Limited danger of any contact of the blade with the walls of the product’s container.
Generates a tangential flow with high shearing forces on the ends. This limits the possibility of sedimentation on the walls of the container.
