Sample Preparation
Hamilton Beach Mixer
PZT-LAB-HBM
The industry-standard mixer for laboratory mud preparation. Shear history changes how polymers hydrate and how clays disperse, so a fluid mixed by hand and one mixed to a defined speed and duration are not the same fluid. Standardising on this mixer is what makes a formulation tested this week comparable to the same formulation tested last month.
Applications
- Standardised sample preparation for fluid testing
- Polymer hydration and clay dispersion
- Laboratory formulation work
- Additive evaluation in oilfield R&D
- Mixing completion fluids, brines and cement additives
