Uniqueness of PAX Technology
“Our analysis of the PAX mixing impeller demonstrated marked differences in fluid handling capabilities as compared to conventional devices—in particular, the PAX impeller provides strong flow conditioning and the ability to form coherent and stable recirculation in tanks of very large size. We clearly demonstrated the ability of the mixer to move fluid throughout the entire tank. This characteristic appears to be a unique feature of PAX Technology.”

PAX Companies

PAX refers to a family of companies, including PAX Streamline, PAX Scientific, PAX Water, and PAX Mixer. The PAX companies are engineering research and development firms that employ unique, patented design geometries to improve fluid-handling equipment. PAX develops, licenses, and manufactures its technology to a variety of markets.

  • PAX Scientific's focus is air-handling technologies such as fans and blowers, and marine hull design.
  • PAX Streamline focuses on power generation (such as wind and water turbines), propulsion, high efficiency heating and air conditioning systems, refrigeration, and other technologies.
  • A subsidiary of PAX Scientific, PAX Water Technologies commercializes technologies for water and wastewater management.
  • PAX Mixer, also a subsidiary of PAX Scientific, markets industrial mixing technologies (other than water or wastewater mixers).

PAX is also associated with three master licensees that have "pax" in their name: PaxFan, PaxIT, and PaxAuto, sometimes collectively called PaxFan or the Pax Group. These companies commercialize PAX Scientific's fan designs in the industrial, domestic, computer and automotive markets. PAX does not own nor operate the PaxFan companies.
