About Stainless Steel Mixing Tank with Agitator for Food, Chemical & Cosmetic

A stainless steel mixing tank (also called an agitator tank) blends liquids, powders and semi-solids into uniform batches using propeller, anchor, paddle or turbine agitators. Built from food-grade 304 or 316 stainless steel, it is widely used in food and beverage production such as sauces, syrups, dairy and juices, as well as in cosmetics, coatings and chemical processing. Jacketed models heat or cool the product during mixing, and CIP-friendly surfaces speed up cleaning between batches.

How to Choose

  • Working volume: match tank capacity (for example 100 L to 10,000 L) to your batch size
  • Material grade: SS304 for general use, SS316 or 316L for acidic or corrosive liquids
  • Agitator type: propeller, anchor, paddle or turbine depending on product viscosity
  • Heating or cooling jacket if the recipe needs temperature control
  • Speed control and mirror-polish finish for hygienic, consistent batches
