Watch Silverson Laboratory Mixers in action at SCS Formulate
Silverson will be demonstrating how to create a basic cosmetic cream emulsion using their multipurpose Laboratory mixers at this year’s show. The demonstrations will take place at 11.30am on both days of the show, on Silverson Machines’ stand 327.
If you’re making a cosmetic cream or lotion, mixing is the critical stage in forming a stable emulsion and obtaining the right consistency, skinfeel and functionality in the end product. The key to creating a stable emulsion is obtaining a fine, uniform droplet size. The more shear energy introduced into the mix, the smaller the droplets will become, resulting in a stable, homogeneous emulsion. This makes Silverson High Shear Mixers ideal for this application; they are capable of creating emulsions with a droplet size of 2 – 5 microns. Finer emulsions down to 0.5 microns can also be obtained, depending on the formulation.
For small production and laboratory work, Silverson laboratory mixers are ideal for batches from 1ml up to 12 litres. They are suitable for the widest range of applications – mixing, emulsifying, homogenising, disintegrating and dissolving – with an efficiency and flexibility unmatched by other machines. They offer excellent reproducibility when scaling up to full-scale production and provide an accurate and easy means of forecasting the performance of larger Silverson machines under full-scale working conditions.
Also on the stand will be a Silverson Pilot Scale AX mixer, ideal for batch sizes up to 50 litres and a Silverson Verso laboratory-scale In-Line mixer.

See the New FMX10 Small-Scale Powder/Liquid Mixer at Pack Expo International
Visitors to the Silverson Machines, Inc. stand at Pack Expo International this year will be able to see the recently launched FMX10 Small-scale powder/liquid mixer. This mixer has been developed to bridge the gap between the laboratory scale FMX5 and the larger, production-scale Flashmix product range. The FMX10 provides a simple, effective and hygienic means of powder/liquid mixing on a small scale, with a batch size of up to 50 litres, depending on viscosity. Featuring the same pumping rotor design as the HV model, the FMX10 can process higher viscosity mixes, and the option of a high speed motor, capable of 9,000rpm, and Flameproof specification makes this model even more versatile.
Also on the stand will be a Silverson Multipurpose Laboratory Mixer, In-tank batch mixer and In-Line mixer.

Silverson exhibit for their 10th year at Gulfood Manufacturing
It is the 10th year of Gulfood Manufacturing and Silverson Machines are exhibiting once again for their 10th year in a row.
Visitors to the UK Pavilion will be able to see a range of Silverson machinery from laboratory scale to small-scale through to full-scale production mixers. For laboratory scale mixing, on the stand will be the multipurpose L5M-A Laboratory mixer and an FMX5 powder/liquid mixer.
A whole range of powder/liquid mixing options, ranging from the FMX5 at laboratory scale, through to production scale FMX25 will be on the stand. This includes the newly launched FMX10 small-scale powder/liquid mixer model too.
For processing larger, production-scale batches, visitors will be able to see a High Shear Silverson in-tank Batch mixer on the stand. As well as a Bottom Entry mixer.
