Custom Mixer Mounting Systems

Built for Your Process, Not Just Your Mixer

You deal with real process challenges:

• Powder induction that creates high startup torque
• High-viscosity fluids that increase drag on impellers
• Slurries and high-SG solutions that load the shaft laterally
• Continuous-duty mixing that drives vibration and fatigue
• Large tanks where structure must control deflection

These conditions change structural requirements fast. That is why custom fabrication matters.

Flexible Structural Design Options

You get a system that fits your plant layout, tank style, and process severity.

Tank-integrated mounts
For lighter-duty liquid blending where compact design matters.

Hybrid plastic and metal systems
For moderate torque, solids suspension, and higher RPM mixing.

Stand-supported structures
For cone-bottom tanks and higher loads where torque must bypass the tank dome.

Floor-mounted truss frames
For heavy industrial mixers, high viscosity, and large impellers where loads must transfer directly to concrete.

Structures can be:

• Center-mounted
• Offset for flow pattern control
• Angled for improved turbulence
• Designed around access platforms, piping, or headroom limits

You are not forced into one layout.

Fabrication That Matches Process Demands

Systems are engineered around:

• Mixer weight and drive size
• Shaft length and impeller diameter
• RPM and tip speed
• Fluid viscosity and specific gravity
• Liquid-only or liquid plus solids mixing

These variables define torque, bending forces, and vibration. The fabricated structure is sized to resist those loads with proper stiffness and bracing.

Process Performance and Equipment Protection

A properly fabricated mount helps you:

• Reduce tank stress and dome flexing
• Control shaft movement and vibration
• Protect gearbox bearings and seals
• Handle torque spikes during thick mixing phases
• Extend service life of the mixer assembly

Stable support means fewer failures and more consistent production.

Ideal for Demanding Industries

• Chemical processing
• Water and wastewater treatment
• Agriculture and fertilizer blending
• Industrial slurry handling
• High-viscosity batch production

If your process creates torque, drag, or dynamic loading, a fabricated mounting system gives you control.

The Advantage

You get more than a support frame.
You get a process-matched structural solution.

BARR Plastics combines plastic and metal fabrication expertise to build mixer mounting systems that adapt to your application, your tank, and your operating environment. That flexibility protects your equipment and keeps your mixing process stable under real-world conditions.
