BEHIND THE SCENES

Now, let's dive into the inner workings of this unsung hero. To get started, you have two power buttons - one at the back of the fan and one at the front to ignite the main power. It's simple and hassle-free.

Once it's powered up, place your ink container on the chuck plate and adjust its size. The RevolvInk Mixer's flexibility means it can accommodate various container sizes. No fuss, no hassle.

Choose the right paddle for your ink container. There are two options: one for quarts and another for gallons. Screw it in and adjust it to graze the bottom of the container. Your ink is now ready to be modulated.

But what sets the RevolvInk Mixer apart is its adaptability to different types of inks. For thick inks like plastisol, lower the speed to around 20 RPMs or less. Start slow, and as the ink warms up, increase the speed to your desired viscosity. Change the direction from left to right for a thorough mix.

For thinner inks like water-based, aim for a speed of 20 RPMs or higher. Begin by spinning it to the left, switch to the right when the ink collects in the middle, and finish with a left spin for a complete mix.
