option as it is usually very expensive and time consuming. The best strategy is to keep working hard and invest in inno- vation to maintain or even improve position in the market. Hauschild Engineering, a
German company and a world leader in laboratory mixing equipment with dual asymmetric centrifuge (DAC) technology for nearly 50 years, has always put great emphasis on innovation and continuous improvement of its equipment. The medium-sized, family
run company’s credo is “Our R&D department is more impor- tant than our legal department.” Copies of the founder’s invention have been introduced to the mar- ket since the company’s begin- nings in the mid 1970s. How - ever, the outstanding quality of the products and customer-ori- ented approach have always made the difference.
The Imitation Recently, a new imitation of
the Hauschild SpeedMixer® has appeared with almost the same dress and the same name. FlackTek, Inc., a former exclu- sive distributor developed a copy of the Hauschild SpeedMixer® and even calls the imitation “SpeedMixer.” The first original mixer was
introduced in 1974, opening new possibilities to mix materials without using stirring tools. Material in almost any form and viscosity are mixed in a matter of minutes or seconds. The first application was for
alginate powder in dental labora- tories. Today, the mixers are used in countless R&D applica- tions such as chemicals, sealants, glues, silicone, paint, coatings, inks, cosmetics, phar- ma, aerospace, electronics, and many more.
The Antidote Since the end of 2018,
Hauschild has been in develop- ment of a new product designed to be a milestone in the mixing world. It not only is made to offer excellent performance when mix- ing, but also is capable of opti- mizing the R&D process by han- dling various parameters. The result of the nearly three-year project is a more solid

Mixer® SMART DAC series is designed to be virtually mainte- nance free, indestructible and to raise the bar on performance,” says Fabio Boccola, CEO. Up to 20 percent more powerful than the standard LR version, the
SMART DAC offers variable counter rotation, increased mix- ing weight and volume and allows up to 30 minutes of mixing time. The improved structure
allows mixing from 0 rpm up to maximum speed without the risk of high vibrations, offering advantages for materials like light powders. “New features like
