Spiral Screw Cone Mixer
Spiral screw cone mixers are becoming more and more popular among the industrial and chemical blending industries. This mixer is designed to quickly and efficiently mix a wide range of products, from powders and granules to liquids and combinations.
Spiral screw cone mixers are constructed from an inverted cone-shaped vessel with an internal helical screw. The spiral screw turns within the vessel as it rotates, generating internal forces that move, accelerate, and lift the mixture and then allow it to mix thoroughly. A rotating shaft combined with the helical screw can add scale and even a gentle stirring action to the mix.
These efficient machines use less energy and require less time than traditional ribbon or paddle blenders. They also have self-cleaning blades to reduce downtime. They are lightweight, easy to transport and come in many sizes to accommodate different batches.
The spiral screw cone mixer is capable of mixing a variety of materials such as plastics, epoxies, pastes and powders that range from small granules to large lumps. It is also able to mix two or more different types of materials for complex formulations.
The cone shape of the interior is designed to generate more shear and more efficient mixing. This also helps reduce settling and promote more homogeneous mixing on a much smaller scale than a traditional ribbon or paddle blender.
These mixers create gentle, rotational mixing, which reduces the probability of fragmentation, oxidation, or agglomeration of delicate materials. This makes the spiral screw cone mixer perfect for applications such as food processing and pharmaceutical production, where gentle mixing and safe handlings are highly important.
The spiral screw cone mixer also creates less pollution when compared to other mixing machines as it is a closed system and generates no dust. Not only does this give cleaner operation and automatic pressure wash cleaning, it also prevents contamination and spillage caused by open-top blenders.
The spiral screw cone mixer is significantly more efficient and more effective than traditional blenders and is rapidly becoming the go-to choice for industrial and chemical blending applications. Its ability to mix a variety of materials with its gentle and reliable mixing process makes it the ideal choice for many industries.
