Mud Agitator

The mud agitator is a drilling fluid solids control equipment that transforms rotational power into fluid circulation and agitation to obtain a uniform suspension of solids such as Bentonite.

When bentonite is mixed with water, it forms a highly viscous drilling fluid which is pumped into the well bore to carry drill cuttings to the surface.
