brief introduction

The horizontal mixer consists of a U-shaped container, spiral stirring blades, and transmission components; The U-shaped long cylinder structure ensures low resistance movement of the mixed material (powder, semi fluid) inside the cylinder. The forward and reverse rotating screw strips are installed on the same horizontal axis to create a low-power and high-efficiency mixing environment. The spiral shaped blades are generally made into double or triple layers, with the outer layer of spiral collecting the material from both sides to the center, and the inner layer of spiral conveying the material from the center to both sides, which can create more vortices in the flow of the material, accelerate the mixing speed, and improve the mixing uniformity; The belt pulley is used to drive the cycloidal reducer, and compared to the high torque of the gear reducer, the elastic connection of the belt transmission has the advantage of protecting the transmission components during overload.

Working principle

horizontal mixerThe working principle of the non gravity mixer is that the horizontal cylinder is equipped with dual axis rotating reverse blades. The blades form a certain angle to circulate and stir the material in the axial and radial directions, so that the material is quickly and evenly mixed. The performance characteristics of the horizontal mixer are that the rotational speed of the reducer driving the shaft and the structure of the blade will weaken the gravity of the material. With the lack of gravity, the differences in particle size and specific gravity of each material are ignored during the mixing process. The intense stirring motion shortens the mixing time, making it faster and more efficient. Even if there are differences in the specific gravity and particle size of the materials, good mixing effects can still be achieved under the rapid and intense agitation and scattering of the staggered mixing blades.

Discharge method

horizontal mixerDischarge method: The powder material adopts a pneumatic large door structure, which has the advantages of fast discharge and no residue; For high fineness materials or semi fluid materials, manual butterfly valves or pneumatic butterfly valves are used. Manual butterfly valves are economical and applicable, while pneumatic butterfly valves have good sealing performance for semi fluids, but the cost is higher than manual butterfly valves. In situations where heating or cooling is required, a jacket can be configured. There are two heating methods to choose from: electric heating and thermal oil heating. Electric heating is convenient, but the heating speed is slow and the energy consumption is high; Heating with thermal oil requires the configuration of an oil pot, thermal power, and pipelines, which requires a large investment but has a fast heating rate and low energy consumption. The cooling process can directly inject cooling water into the jacket, which has a large heat exchange area and fast cooling speed. The motor is directly connected to the mixing spindle through a cycloidal pinwheel reducer, which has a simple structure, high operational reliability, and easy maintenance.
