A mixing tank is often the first key machine in liquid product manufacturing. It can be used for blending raw materials, dissolving powders, heating liquids, cooling formulas, holding finished bulk products, or preparing materials before filling.
HONEMIX mixing tanks are suitable for flowable and semi-viscous products such as shampoo, body wash, liquid soap, detergent, sanitizer, toner, fragrance liquid, and cleaning products. Whether used as a shampoo mixing tank, liquid soap mixing tank, or lotion mixing tank for light to medium-viscosity formulas, the system can be customized according to different production processes. Compared with vacuum emulsifying mixers, this category focuses more on liquid preparation, tank structure, agitator selection, and process flexibility.
Mixing tanks help combine water, surfactants, fragrance, color, additives and other ingredients into a uniform liquid product.
For products that contain salt, thickener, active powder or cleaning ingredients, the mixing system can help improve dissolving efficiency.
Jacketed tanks can be designed for steam, electric heating, hot water or cooling water depending on process needs.
Some tanks can be used as buffer tanks before filling, helping production lines run more smoothly.
For products that need stronger dispersion, a bottom or inline homogenizer can be added to improve material uniformity.
This category is suitable for:
Shampoo
Body wash
Liquid soap
Hand sanitizer
Laundry detergent
Dishwashing liquid
Household cleaner
Perfume liquid
Toner
Essential oil blend
Low-to-medium viscosity liquid products
Lotion and Liquid Soap Mixing
Shampoo and Conditioner Production
Hand Wash and Sanitizer Blending
Food and Pharmaceutical Liquid Preparation
Suitable for simple liquid blending, easy material feeding and small to medium production. It is often used for products that do not require vacuum or sealed processing.
Suitable for products that need better dust control, odor control or more hygienic processing conditions.
Suitable for products requiring heating, melting, temperature holding or cooling during production.
Suitable for flexible production, pilot batches or factories that need to move material between different work areas.
Suitable for liquid products that need stronger dispersion, faster dissolving or improved consistency.
Suitable for holding raw materials, semi-finished products or finished bulk product before transfer or filling.
Thin liquid, foaming liquid and semi-viscous liquid need different agitator designs. The product behavior should be confirmed before choosing the tank.
Choose tank volume according to working batch size, not only maximum capacity. Enough headspace may be needed for foaming or powder feeding.
Different materials may need paddle mixing, frame mixing, dispersing, bottom homogenizing or combined agitation.
If raw materials need melting or temperature control, choose jacketed design and confirm heating medium.
Open tanks are easier for feeding and cleaning. Sealed tanks are better for hygiene, dust control or odor-sensitive products.
For frequent product changeover, polished surfaces, spray balls, sanitary valves and easy-disassembly structures can reduce cleaning time.

Suitable for standalone use or connection with filling lines
A mixing tank is mainly used for blending, dissolving, heating, cooling or storing liquid products. An emulsifying mixer is used when the formula needs vacuum processing and high-shear emulsification, especially for cream, gel or paste.
Yes. Shampoo production usually requires liquid blending, thickener dissolving, fragrance addition and viscosity adjustment. A suitable agitator and tank structure should be selected according to formula viscosity and foaming behavior.
Yes. A jacketed mixing tank can be designed for electric heating, steam heating, hot water circulation or cooling water depending on the process.
SUS304 is suitable for many standard liquid products. SUS316L is often preferred for more demanding hygiene, corrosion resistance or pharmaceutical-related applications.
Yes. A mixing tank can discharge material to a filling machine through a transfer pump, pipeline, buffer tank or direct connection depending on factory layout.
