The vertical axis planetary mixer relies on a three-dimensional composite motion of revolution and rotation, and has outstanding advantages compared to traditional models such as double horizontal axes in special materials such as high viscosity, fibers, ultrafine powders, refractory castables, and dry and hard materials.
1. 360 ° seamless mixing with high micro homogeneity
The stirring arm revolves around the center of the cylinder, while the blades rotate at high speed. With a trajectory of 5-6 seconds, it can completely cover the bottom, wall, and center of the cylinder. Combined with the scraper plate on the cylinder wall, it eliminates the problems of dead corners at the bottom, wall hanging, and center accumulation.
The material simultaneously generates convection, kneading, squeezing, and shearing, with a mixing uniformity of over 98%, solving the problems of ultrafine silica fume and micro powder agglomeration, uneven distribution of multiple groups, and high consistency of material performance in each batch. It is suitable for special materials with strict micro mixing requirements.
2. Fiber materials are well dispersed, not easily clumped or broken
For materials such as steel fiber, glass fiber, PVA fiber, etc.:
-Three dimensional turbulent flow gently rubs and disperses fiber bundles, avoiding fiber balls and local fiber accumulation;
-The cutting force is controllable, will not excessively break the fibers, retains the original length of the fibers, and ensures the crack resistance and tensile performance of the finished product.
Typical applications: UHPC ultra-high performance concrete, fiber refractory castables, fiber prefabricated components. Traditional double reclining shafts are prone to fiber clumping and entanglement problems.
3. Suitable for a wide range of material states: dry, semi dry, and high viscosity paste can be mixed
One device is compatible with multiple material forms:
–Dry and hard materials: refractory ramming material, dry mixed refractory material, dry powder material, not easy to grip the shaft, not easy to layer and separate;
–High viscosity and low water cement ratio paste: UHPC, plastic, high viscosity castable, high torque heavy-duty transmission, overcomes the mixing resistance of high viscosity materials, and does not cause machine stuffiness;
–Wet materials, slurries: ceramic slurries, glass admixtures, grouting materials, etc. Switching materials only adjusts the speed and mixing time, without the need to replace core components.
4. Wear resistant and wear-resistant, suitable for hard and abrasive materials
The mixing arm, lining plate, and blades can be made of high chromium alloy and tungsten carbide wear-resistant materials, which are suitable for high abrasion materials such as refractory castables, corundum aggregates, and high hardness mineral powders. The service life of vulnerable parts is long; The blades can be flipped for secondary use, reducing accessory costs.
The shaft end adopts multiple mazes and airbag seals, making it difficult for dust and fine powder to enter the transmission part, reducing slurry and ash leakage, and suitable for ultra-fine powder working conditions.
5. The material is not easy to separate and is compatible with particles of different sizes
The all-around flipping of planetary mixing ensures synchronous mixing of large and small particles, as well as light and heavy powders. Large aggregates and ultrafine powders do not separate into light and heavy, making it particularly suitable for refractory materials (coarse particles+silica fume powder) and lightweight insulation castables (lightweight aggregates+powders), solving the problem of large particles sinking and lightweight materials floating in traditional mixers
6. Flexible process adaptation, supporting special process transformation
-Variable frequency speed regulation: dry mixing low-speed premixing, wet mixing high-speed shearing, fiber dispersion low-speed feeding, segmented mixing process friendly, suitable for UHPC step-by-step feeding process;
-Expandable vacuum stirring, heating, and water cooling structures, suitable for special slurries that require defoaming and temperature control;
-Multiple discharge doors are optional, allowing for clean discharge of high viscosity materials with minimal residue inside the cylinder, making material changes convenient and reducing cross contamination of different formulations in Konigsegg machinery
7. Short stirring cycle and high efficiency
Under the same material conditions, the mixing time is shortened compared to traditional mixers. Special materials can generally achieve qualified homogenization effect in 30-90 seconds, which is suitable for continuous production of special building materials and refractory production lines.
