One Mixing Solution for All Mixing Steps in cGMP Bioprocessing

With the flexibility to accommodate both low-shear and rapid-mixing applications, the Flexsafe® Pro Mixer brings single-use technology to a wide range of mixing steps in upstream and downstream processes.

The Flexsafe® Pro Mixer supports quality and efficiency:

  • Reduces the risk of operator error
  • Allows in-line monitoring and control
  • Protects shear-sensitive products
  • Allows fast installation and easy setup


High-Performance and Rapid Mixing

The Flexsafe® Pro Mixer’s efficiency has been proven with computational fluid dynamics and application testing with buffers, media, aluminum gel, and viscous products.

Low-Shear Mixing

Flexsafe® Pro Mixer levitating impeller combined with limited shear work eliminates the shear effects that can impact product quality.

Integrated and Intelligent Process Monitoring

Flexsafe® Pro Mixer controls all critical mixing parameters essential for cGMP production; automated control of mixing speed and time, integrated control of volume and temperature, in-line control and monitoring  of pH, and conductivity.

Flexibility of Use

You can use one mixing technology for the complete drug manufacturing process.
The Pro Mixer drive unit is designed to interface with Palletank® for Mixing (50 – 3,000 L), and you can use it with multiple Palletank® for Mixing units.

Easy to Install, Ergonomically Designed

Installation takes 5-10 mins for the full  Mixing range. The system comes with easy-to-follow instructions for each stage of the process.
