RELIABILITY
Mixer Modernization & Reliability
Optimize your equipment base and maximize productivity with a Mixer Modernization and Reliability (MMR) site survey and report. During the survey, our solution makers collect data from 30 key points for each of your mixers and then generate a customized MMR report onsite. The MMR report proactively identifies aging and at-risk equipment to minimize unplanned downtime.
If replacement is necessary, we identify similar equipment to help new maintenance personnel and reduce spare part inventory costs.
Our MMR program is designed to:
- Streamline and reduce spares
- Determine percent of investment vs. risk
- Identify potential savings of modernization vs. cost of delay
- Estimate cost of delay

OEM SPARE PARTS
Genuine parts and maintenance kits
During Q4, when much of your focus is set on 2023 planning, it’s important to remember that success next year starts now. Budget surplus this quarter can ensure things run smoothly in the year to come. With regular preventative maintenance and genuine OEM parts, your mixer equipment will be ready to perform throughout 2023 for more uptime and optimal performance.
Our mixer genuine spare parts are precisely engineered to our continuously increasing quality standards. As spares availability is crucial to the smooth running of your operation, our strategically located Spare Parts Distribution Centers and network of distribution partners offer rapid delivery of our genuine spare parts along with advanced spares consolidation and management services to help keep your processes running. Maintenance kits are also available, conveniently putting all the parts required for regular servicing in one kit, making it easier to service.
GEARBOX EXCHANGE
Reduce downtime with our gearbox exchange program which provides a rebuilt and improved mixer drive in exchange for one that’s failing. The idea is simple – when your equipment goes down, you can get a replacement shipped quickly in a swap. When you return the drive within 30 days, you receive a core credit which can be used to buy an exchange as a spare, or you can buy a new unit at normal lead times. A spare drive not only helps with predictive and preventative maintenance but also emergency scenarios when downtime is imminent.
Whatever your scenario, we work directly with you to create a program tailored to your process and ensure the most uptime.
REPLACEMENT & RETROFIT
SPX FLOW has a long history of mechanical engineering and process design excellence. With brands like Lightnin, Plenty, and Philadelphia Mixing Solutions, to name a few, as part of our mixing solutions portfolio, our experience extends beyond designing and building new systems, we also know why drives might fail. Our Replacement Drive Support program for mixer and agitator drives follows these steps:
- Collect the mixer performance and the operational history of the unit to be replaced.
- Take into account the unique loads that mixing and agitation impose on a gear drive system.
- Consider process changes since the original installation.
- Analyze the in-tank parts design with reference to the current process in the tank.
