120In the printing, coating, and adhesive industries, pigment sedimentation is one of the most persistent—and costly—production challenges. When pigment particles separate from the ink system and migrate to the bottom of the container under gravity, the result is uneven color, nozzle clogging, printhead damage, and significant material waste. For businesses running high-volume production, these issues translate directly into downtime, rework, and lost revenue.
Traditional solutions—manual shaking, intermittent stirring, or chemical anti-settling agents—often fall short. Manual shaking is inconsistent and labor-intensive, while chemical additives can alter ink rheology and may not be suitable for all formulations. Intermittent stirring leaves "dead zones" where sediment continues to accumulate. What the industry needs is a continuous, mechanical, non-intrusive solution that keeps pigments suspended without compromising ink chemistry.
That's where Subit's Ink Paint Glue Anti-Sediment / Anti-Solidification Continually Rolling Machine comes in. Designed for ink, paint, and adhesive mixing, this equipment provides continuous, automated rolling action that prevents sedimentation and solidification from the moment materials are loaded.
Intelligent timing & digital speed adjustment – 1 to 150 RPM, fully adjustable to match different material viscosities and sedimentation tendencies
Adjustable roller axis spacing – 40–300mm, accommodating various container sizes
Dual-can capacity – holds two ink/paint cans (standard: diameter 30cm, length 40cm)
Robust construction – 202 stainless steel body with rubber-covered roller axes (D60×L500mm)
Load capacity – 20–30L, suitable for production-scale batches
Safety features – over-current and over-voltage protection, current/voltage display, reset function, alarm buzzer, and heat sink
Power-efficient – 60–90W total installed power, 220V 50HZ
Compact footprint – L500×H380×W400mm, weight 30kg
The science is straightforward: pigment particles in inks and paints have higher densities than their carrying fluids—carbon black at 1.8–2.1g/cm³, titanium dioxide at 3.9–4.2g/cm³. In static conditions, these particles settle following Stokes' Law; the larger and denser the particle, the faster it sinks.
Continuous rolling addresses this at the mechanical level. The 360° tumbling action breaks up sediment layers, re-suspends settled pigments, and ensures uniform distribution throughout the container. Unlike agitators that create localized mixing, rolling action covers the entire container interior—no dead zones, no inconsistencies.
Consistent color output – Uniform pigment dispersion means batch-to-batch color consistency, critical for brand-color applications
Reduced printhead maintenance – Preventing sediment buildup significantly lowers the risk of nozzle clogging and printhead damage
Extended ink shelf life – Continuous agitation prevents the decomposition or sedimentation of ink components, prolonging effective ink life
Lower material waste – No more disposing of settled, unusable ink at the bottom of containers
24/7 automated operation – Set it and forget it; no manual intervention required
