Agitators and Mixers for Mining Projects Mixtec’s role in lithium projects

Agitators have taken centre stage in the lithium market, and Mixtec is at the forefront of this transformation.

In the ever-evolving mining industry, where innovation plays a pivotal role, Mixtec shines as a pioneering force. With a forward-thinking approach, the company proactively foresees forthcoming challenges and expertly tailors solutions to tackle them headfirst. Notably, Mixtec has been diligently tracking the constantly changing mining landscape, with a keen emphasis on the impressive advancements occurring within the lithium sector.

The global demand for lithium has experienced unprecedented growth, fuelled by its widespread use in diverse applications, from powering electric vehicles to fuelling consumer electronics and storing renewable energy. As this demand surges, the role of agitators in the lithium market has taken centre stage, and Mixtec is at the forefront of this transformation.

Historically, agitators have played a crucial role in the extraction and processing of lithium.

Mixtec agitators offer a guarantee of energy savings, reduced stress on gearboxes, and decreased carbon losses in C.I.P. plants.

As a leading supplier of industrial agitator and mixer technologies, Mixtec is enthusiastic about participating in mining projects launching in African nations, anticipating a surge in product demand.

Mixtec is actively engaged in both novel agitator applications and the replacement of outdated, inefficient systems for mining operators. The company has earned a reputation for its reliability, innovation, and excellence in these specialised fields.

Mixtec is strategically focusing on expanding its presence in retrofit solutions, actively raising awareness among potential clients.

Delivering cost-effective solutions

Mixtec’s cost-effective retrofit solutions involve upgrading existing mixer drives with state-of-

Mixtec has established itself as an industry frontrunner in the provision of agitators for lithium extraction processes as Mixtec already has large quantities of Mixers currently working in Lithium applications in multiple regions, including North America, South America, and Australia. Working closely with these customers, Mixtec has harnessed unmatched expertise in the different lithium processes, positioning themselves as the undisputed Market leader.

In an interview with Mining Business Africa, Mixtec reiterates its commitment to clients stating that, “With a rich legacy spanning four decades and a proven track record, Mixtec is the natural choice to enhance your lithium operations. Our global presence further amplifies the advantages we offer our customers, guaranteeing top-tier solutions, regardless of your location.” the-art wet-end technology.

Mixtec’s approach to providing practical retrofit solutions is founded on the principle of “Why replace it when you can restore it?”

In line with this philosophy, the company frequently replaces various impeller systems by exchanging the blades and rejuvenating the shaft and couplings.

Return on Investment

In the end, Mixtec’s approach ensures a return on investment from two crucial perspectives. These include achieving energy savings within just a few months and reducing stress on gearboxes while minimising carbon losses in C.I.P. plants.

Looking ahead to its involvement in new projects, Mixtec emphasizes this philosophy in a statement, “We are dedicated to delivering the best possible solutions to breathe new life into old equipment, ensuring it operates at optimal performance levels.”

Mixtec’s Retrofitting a Game Changer for South African Mine

Retrofitting is always done for two reasons, to solve a problem and to save costs. And this was no exception at a local mine in Gauteng, where the Mixtec team encountered a recurring problem with competitor products: equipment was failing prematurely.

In response, the team took action by replacing twenty two wet ends with Mixtec’s superior mixing technology. This resulted in an upgrade to the drive systems.

Notably, this intervention not only rectified the issue of equipment failures but also substantially improved solid suspension, all while reducing power consumption costs.

Encouraged by this groundbreaking success, the customer subsequently requested a further enhancement to unlock the full potential of the drive and amplify production rates.
