Our Customers Love Us
“1. Efficiency: Flacktek has tremendously helped us to maximized the mixing capabilities with multi cup holders, drastically reducing mixing times while maintaining the good slurry paste compared to traditional methods. 2. Versatility: The mixers can handle a wide range of materials: dry powders mixing, and powder-liquid mixing. 3. User-Friendly: The design of the FlackTek mixer is intuitive, with easy-to-use controls and settings that serve greatly to both novice and experienced users. 4. Customer Care: Always there for the customers!
I remembered there was a time I have a difficult time of dispersing CNT so I emailed Drew and Dominic to ask for help! With a quick turn around time of replying my email, I was able to get help from them within a week. During their visit onsite, as we scheduled for 2 hours meeting – they stayed longer and did not leave until we found a better solution. Drew and Dominic did not stop at this point, they even followed up after the trip. The amount of support I got from FlackTek team is incredible!
With the introduction of multi-cup holders, FlackTek has significantly enhanced the efficiency of their mixers, leading to an impressive 80% increase in overall workflow productivity at MitraChem. This advancement not only streamlines the mixing process but also substantially reduces the time required for each batch, allowing users to achieve their desired results more quickly and effectively.”
