Alfa Laval has acquired PremierTec, Ltd. and its patented liquid mixing technology, targeting the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.
The patented design has a strong magnetic coupling between the impeller and the driving magnets that causes the impeller to levitate or float – with no direct contact with the bearing surfaces. This allows for continued mixing until a tank is empty, and achieves a validated mix to a much lower tank level compared to other mixing products.
The PremierTec portfolio also includes a range of specialty Pharma valves – often bundled together with mixers. All products have 3.1 traceability with USP Class VI compliant mixing components.
