Greaves technicians on site at Uretech. Working with the factory team to install a new dual action Flex mixing station for high viscosity adhesives alongside Uretech’s existing Flex mixer.
Uretech’s Operations Manager, Dan Ridings has already seen major benefits:-
“Our first Greaves Flex mixer has had a huge impact on productivity and quality which has been an invaluable supporting increased sales”
“We are now developing high viscosity speciality products which are very challenging when using a single shaft high speed disperser. With high viscosities, product circulation is poor so process cycles become long, leading to uncomfortably high temperatures which can affect product quality.”
“Our new dual action Flex mixer is the perfect answer to these issues. The anchor scraper constantly feeds unmixed product to the disperser head, so cycle times are pretty much the same as for lower viscosity products. Consequently, far higher productivity, lower energy consumption and much reduced temperature gain. This ensures consistent product quality – just the result we were promised!”
“By removing material from the vessel wall the anchor scraper has also greatly reduced cleaning time and output is up by more than 30%.”
“Another major advantage is the ability to use the same mobile vessels interchangeably between both mixing stations”.

Edward Greaves , MD commented:-
“It’s great to see our Flex system is delivering the performance Dan and his colleagues need. ”
“Our team enjoy working with Uretech, they are open and keen to collaborate on projects. This is a perfect example of the results that can be achieved when we work closely with customers, understand their challenges and opportunities and can apply our experience to deliver maximum value.”
