Gentle, Shear-Free Mixing for Single-Use Systems
FUNDAMIX® SU brings DrM’s vibration-based mixing technology into the world of single-use, for reliable, sterile, and low-shear mixing.
Single-Use Mixing Without Compromise
Mixing in single-use systems often comes with limitations. Rotating parts inside the bag, high shear stress, or complex handling can put product integrity at risk. FUNDAMIX® SU applies DrM’s vibration-based mixing technology to single-use processes. It generates uniform and gentle mixing through vertical oscillation of a mixing plate, without rotating components or mechanical seals.
Rapid yet Gentle Homogenization
FUNDAMIX® SU generates efficient, low-shear mixing through vertical oscillation. This protects sensitive products like cells, proteins, or biologics during mixing.
No Rotating Components or Mechanical Seals
The vibration mixing plate operates without rotating parts. This reduces contamination risk and simplifies handling.
Easy to Use in Single-Use Systems
FUNDAMIX® SU offers easy setup and reliable use in single-use environments. It's compact, hygienic, and integrates well into existing processes.
High Turndown Ratio
FUNDAMIX® SU allows positioning of the mixing plate just a few centimeters from the bottom of the bag, depending on the configuration. This ensures uniform mixing even during emptying phases and contributes to a low dead volume, maximizing product yield and process efficiency.
Mixing, Tailored to Your Process
Best for: Low-shear applications requiring consistent flow and minimal turbulence. Processes requiring rapid and efficient mixing, such as liquid–liquid blending and formulations involving liquids with light solids.
Best for: Applications needing stronger agitation with controlled fluid movement. Ideal for processes with fast sedimenting solids or where foam prevention is critical.
