Mixer Torque Pre-Sizing

Calculate the required torque from your tank, product and impeller data — the real process need, not the motor nameplate.

Every question can be answered by a plant engineer by looking or measuring with a tape. The result is a pre-sizing; final motor selection is confirmed by EMF engineering.

What is the purpose of mixing?

What is being mixed?

Pick the closest match. The calculation always uses the worst case (coldest, thickest).

Are there solids in the product?

Select the impeller type

Pick the drawing that looks most like your impeller.

Measure tip to tip. A 10 cm error changes the result significantly — measure, don’t guess.

Is the impeller fully submerged even at minimum liquid level?

Tank dimensions

Does the tank have baffles?

Operating conditions

Speed of the impeller shaft — from the gearbox output or the drive display.

Does the motor start with a full tank?
If you know your existing system (optional, for comparison)

We show the installed torque next to the calculated real need.
