The Turbine Mixer is a simple design, yet does a better job of mixing rubbers, plastics and foams than any mixer we've tried.It also mixes powder-based Alja Safe™ alginate and Matrix NEO™ with fiber better than any other mixer. Just as important; it is easier to clean vs other mixers that we've tried saving time and labor. The Turbine Mixer is also less expensive vs. other mixers on the market.
