FlackTek™ Unveils the MEGA Product Line
FlackTek™, a leader in high-performance materials processing, has made a significant advancement in the industry with the introduction of the
MEGA FlackTek™. This is hailed as the most advanced and largest high-speed bladeless planetary mixer in the world and is now ready for commercial orders. Designed for exceptional hourly outputs measured in tons, the MEGA technology allows manufacturers to scale groundbreaking formulations from research and development to full-scale production with unparalleled efficiency.
FlackTek™ aims to revolutionize the industrial mixing process by replacing traditional bladed mixers, thereby enabling a complete overhaul of manufacturing practices. The MEGA platform is meticulously engineered to enhance both materials processing and production environment designs. By employing a clean, bladeless system, it effectively eliminates the challenges associated with cleanup and cross-contamination. Furthermore, its advanced control features cater to modern production demands, facilitating processes that range from small batch pilot runs to high-volume continuous output.
CEO Matt Gross emphasized the transformative potential of this innovation: "This isn't just about scale. It's about freeing our customers from legacy constraints and giving them the flexibility to rethink their entire process, from formulation to floorplan. The MEGA FlackTek™ enables teams to expedite development, minimize downtime, and achieve consistent results—from grams to tons."
A New Standard in Modern Manufacturing
The MEGA platform builds upon FlackTek’s reputable technology, which is known for precise materials processing including mixing, dispersion, emulsification, deagglomeration, and degassing. It accommodates both reusable and single-use containers and is capable of functioning under full vacuum and inert gas conditions, essential for sensitive or reactive materials. Options for remote operations, temperature monitoring, video monitoring, and automated data logging further enhance process control and traceability.
In practical applications, clients across multiple sectors have reported remarkable efficiency improvements when using FlackTek’s technology. Notably, an advanced manufacturing partner experienced a staggering 24-fold increase in output by swapping a labor-intensive production process for the MEGA FlackTek™, all while eliminating cleanup and reducing manual material handling through automation.
Scalability and Flexibility at Its Core
Whether it's validating a formulation in a laboratory setting or producing substantial quantities in a production environment, FlackTek™ provides a unified ecosystem designed to support every stage of the manufacturing process. This seamless transition from laboratory to production ensures that teams can sustain process fidelity, accelerate time-to-market, and streamline regulatory compliance while simplifying facility complexity.
