INTRODUCTION
The Graymills Air-Powered Ink and Coating Mixers were
developed to use with our on-press peristaltic and diaphragm
pumps, providing the level of in-tank agitation traditionally
supplied by centrifugal pumps. By continuously blending
the pigments, solvents, and additives, your viscosity and
print quality remain more stable, making your process more
predictable. Variable speed adjustment of the mixer allows you
to adjust to the needs of your inking system, while conserving
compressed air and avoiding any risk of foaming.
UNPACKING
Remove mixer from carton. The carton should contain the air
motor mounted on a shaft, 1 mounting plate, 1 propeller,
muffler and air speed valve. Mixer is assembled except for
mounting hardware.
Unpack and inspect carefully. Contact shipper or Graymills if
you suspect damage or missing parts. Follow instructions and
put into use.
