In semiconductor manufacturing, agitators are mainly used for conditioning polishing and cutting suspensions, etchants and other auxiliary chemicals, cleaning solutions, or for chemicals recycling. The requirements placed on stirring systems are extremely demanding.
Clean room conditions prevail in almost all applications, which means drives and seals must be designed without abrasion or leakage. Due to the aggressiveness of the media and the purity requirements, product-contact parts such as the shaft and stirring element often have to be produced with metal-free surfaces.

Our agitators are also used in broad areas of solar cell production.
