Mixers
A.I.S. Paste Mixing Systems, powered by PerMix, are engineered for high-viscosity, non-flowing, and shear-sensitive materials that traditional liquid or powder mixers simply cannot handle. These systems are designed to deliver uniformity, thermal control, and repeatability for some of the most demanding mixing applications in industry.

These systems are designed to deliver uniformity, thermal control, and repeatability for some of the most demanding mixing applications in industry.
AIS integrates PerMix paste mixers into complete, production-ready systems—combining feeding, discharge, heating/cooling, vacuum, and controls into a single engineered solution.
Used extensively in food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, battery, adhesive, polymer, and specialty materials industries.
A paste mixer is designed for materials that do not pour, pump, or behave politely. These materials often require:
• Extremely high torque
• Controlled shear
• Positive displacement mixing action
• Precise temperature management
• Reliable discharge under load
PerMix paste mixers are engineered to move the product mechanically, not hope viscosity gives up on its own.
AIS integrates the full range of PerMix paste-mixing technologies, selected based on viscosity, shear requirement, and process objectives.
• Counter-rotating sigma blades
• Extremely high torque capability
• Ideal for doughs, adhesives, gums, and elastomers
• Excellent kneading and folding action
• Jacketed for heating & cooling
• Optional vacuum operation
A classic design, still undefeated for ultra-viscous materials.
• Dual planetary blades sweep the entire vessel
• Uniform mixing with controlled shear
• Handles wide viscosity ranges
• Excellent for filled pastes and compounds
• Scalable from lab to production
Used where uniformity and scalability are critical.
• Combination of anchor, disperser, and high-shear tools
• Handles complex rheology in a single vessel
• Ideal for formulations requiring staged shear input
• Optional vacuum and temperature control
Perfect for modern, multi-component paste formulations.
Paste processes often live or die by temperature.
PerMix paste mixers integrated by AIS can include:
• Full heating & cooling jackets
• High-temperature operation
• Precise thermal control loops
• Insulation for energy efficiency
• Temperature monitoring & automation
This allows controlled viscosity, reaction kinetics, and product consistency.
Air is the enemy of many paste products.
Available options include:
• Vacuum-rated mixing vessels
• Degassing during mixing
• Solvent or vapor removal
• Improved product density and finish
Vacuum paste mixing is critical for pharmaceuticals, adhesives, battery slurries, and specialty chemicals.
Paste doesn’t fall out of a mixer—it must be persuaded.
AIS integrates PerMix paste mixers with engineered discharge solutions:
• Bottom discharge extrusion screws
• Hydraulic or mechanical discharge presses
• Tilt-out vessels
• Heated discharge zones
• Pump-assisted transfer (application-dependent)
Discharge is engineered as part of the system—not left as an afterthought.
This is where AIS adds real value.
PerMix paste mixers are integrated with:
• Bag dump stations
• Bulk bag unloaders
• Drum and tote dumpers
• Gain-in-weight and loss-in-weight feeders
• Liquid dosing systems
• Pneumatic or mechanical conveying
This enables accurate formulation of powders, liquids, and additives directly into the paste mixer—cleanly and repeatably.
PerMix paste mixers are available in both sanitary and heavy-industrial configurations:
• 304 / 316 / 316L stainless steel
• Polished or electropolished product-contact surfaces
• FDA-compliant seals and elastomers
• GMP-ready construction
• Washdown & CIP-capable designs
Suitable for food, pharma, and regulated manufacturing environments.
For flammable solvents, combustible powders, or classified environments, AIS-integrated PerMix paste mixers can be designed to comply with:
• ATEX zone requirements
• NFPA standards including 652, 654, 68, and 69
Available safety features include:
• Explosion-proof motors and controls
• Grounding and bonding provisions
• Inert gas blanketing
• Pressure-rated vessels
• Integrated safety interlocks
High torque deserves high safety margins.
AIS paste mixing systems engineered by PerMix are used for:
Doughs, batters, and food pastes
Pharmaceutical ointments and gels
Nutraceutical concentrates
Adhesives and sealants
Battery electrodes and slurries
Polymers, elastomers, and resins
Chemical compounds and composites
If it resists flow, PerMix is the right answer.
PerMix engineers some of the most capable paste mixers in the world. AIS ensures those mixers are properly fed, properly discharged, properly controlled, and properly integrated into real production environments.
Together, they deliver systems that don’t struggle with viscosity—they dominate it.
