Double Planetary Mixer

Traxit Engineers offers a Double Planetary Mixer, which provides the modern industry with unlimited possibilities of application for the processing of fully homogenous mixes of medium to high viscosity pastes. This consists of a vertical cylindrical vessel mounted on castors, placed under a horizontal machine head, which is supported on a vertical frame also called Machine Upright. The machine upright also holds the cylindrical vessel in position. Suspended from the machine head and entering the vessel, there are one or two mixing elements and a scraper arrangement. The mixing elements have dual motion, i.e., they rotate around their own axis and also traverse along the vessel wall thus performing a planetary motion. This planetary motion ensures that there is no dead zone and all the ingredients are effectively involved in the mixing process. The scraper arrangement scrapes the vessel wall to ensure that any material, which tends to stick to the vessel wall, is also brought into the mix. The head, which supports the mixing elements, can be hoisted along with the mixing elements to clear the mixing vessel. Accordingly the mixing vessel can be changed or in other words change cans can be used. With this arrangement the mixing zone is free from any seals. With added features, it can also be used as an effective reactor or dryer. The equipment can be supplied with different materials of construction for contact parts like carbon steel, stainless steel, etc., in sizes ranging from laboratory models of 10 ltr to production models up to 1000 ltr.
