Removing air bubbles from materials like epoxies and inks which you mix up yourself can be an irritation. Often some form of vacuum chamber is used to degas the mixture – it is time consuming and not easy!
One of the advantages of our Thinky ARE-250 Mixer is that it does not put air into the material whilst mixing – and then a degassing stage can remove what’s left (down to micron levels). The planetary action mixes quickly and completely. The degassing mode is more effective than a simple centrifuge.
| An epoxy resin, approximately 250,000cps |  |
| Before processing Countless microscopic air bubbles exist (60x magnified) |
 |
| After 3 minutes “Mixing Mode” Only a few size 15?m air bubbles are visible |
 |
| After 2.5 minutes “Degassing Mode” No air bubbles are visible under 60x microscope |

Are you troubled with gas?
