New Spanish Mixer Brochures!

Sharpe Portable Mixer brochure in Spanish

Sharpe Mixers is making an effort to expand our sales into Mexico, Central America and South America.

Years of success in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic have prompted this market effort.

We have contracted with Inventec S.A. de C.V. to represent our products and services in Mexico.

We are expanding our sales representation in South America.

Our efforts, to date, have been very successful. Sales in Mexico are growing rapidly.

Mixers 101 brochure in Spanish

 Project work in the mining industry in South America is on the upswing, with one very large order landed in Peru last year.


Recognition of our growing market in Spanish speaking areas has generated the start of our publication of all our literature in Spanish.

Starting with our Portable Mixers brochure and Mixers 101, our two most popular publications, we will continue to expand our library of Spanish literature.

We will see a Spanish version of our website in the future.

Quality Control a Priority at Sharpe Mixers

Inspecting a V-Series mixer.

The Sharpe Mixers name represents the highest of quality in the mixing industry, and for good reason.   Sharpe takes great pride in making sure our equipment is manufactured and assembled to the highest standards.

We begin with raw materials of the highest quality on the market.  Sharpe has invested in long-term partnerships with material suppliers who are as committed to quality as we are.  Our suppliers stand behind their product, offering material certifications when required - a common requirement in the pharmaceutical industry.

Tight tolerances are followed through the machining and welding process.  Our machinist's biggest strength is their cumulative and diverse level of machining experience, as well as their expertise of special alloys.

Every large mixer must pass a rigid inspection process before leaving our facility.  This thorough inspection is performed by a design engineer.  All critical measurements are confirmed and documented, and all components checked for accuracy.  Digital pictures are taken of all components, tags, nameplates, packaging, etc., and saved with the inspection documentation.

Sharpe's internal quality control program is designed to guarantee that we meet or exceed our customer's requirements.   Each test we conduct has a specific procedure and frequency to ensure consistency.

The end result of all this effort?  A product we are proud of and one you may have utmost confidence in!

Mixer Replacement in Pictures

Retrofitting older mixers in the field with newer, more efficient and cost-effective mixer designs has long been a strong suit of Sharpe Mixers.

Case in point, these old mixers were likely installed in the 1950's (best guess) and had long exceeded their life cycle.  In fact, the gearboxes were now obsolete and parts no longer available.

The customer contacted Sharpe to see what we could offer as an update.  Application engineers from Sharpe flew to the customer's facility, examined their application requirements, and offered a proposal best suited to their needs. 

One of the biggest selling points of Sharpe Mixers was the technology of our Hyflo impeller design and the improved mixing it would offer.   With their increased impeller efficiency, Sharpe would be able to offer smaller, more efficient and cost-effective mixer drives.

After shipment of the mixers, Sharpe engineers flew back to the customer's facility for start-up. 

The first task was the removal of the old tank and mixers. The tank is made of wood rather than metal due to the high salt content.

Once the old tanks were dismantled and stacked for disposal.  Once this was completed, it was time to install the new replacement tanks.

The new tanks were a noticeable improvement over the old! This is one of three new tanks.  The application process requires three tanks per series.  This installation was for the first series, with more to follow.

Next it was time to install the mixers.  The HYF-218 impellers were lowered in with cranes first.

The impellers and shafts were followed by the drives.  This is our N-Series mixer drive, our most popular heavy duty mixer.

Note the impeller's close proximity to the tank walls.  The mixers are in crystalization tanks.  They mix a saturated solution of salts and run them though cooling coils.  The application is material suspension and heat transfer.

A steady bearing is used to secure the mixer shaft and limit shaft runout.

The customer was so pleased with the results that they have placed orders for two more series of mixers, the next of which will be shipped in the coming days.
