Today we will introduce how to choose a vertical mixer
The working principle of a vertical mixer is to use the spiral mixing principle. The materials put into the feeding hopper are sent to the upper end of the barrel through the spiral spindle, and then fall in an umbrella shape back to the bottom. This mixing action is continuously carried out to achieve a uniform mixing of materials. Improved production efficiency without material waste.
One What materials are mainly used for mixing with a vertical mixer?
Answer: Suitable for mixing powders and granular materials; For example, grains and cereals, plastic pellets, chemical dry powder, animal feed, compound fertilizers, etc. Equipped with automatic operation timing, overload protection and other functions; And it has the advantages of small footprint, large capacity, low power consumption, labor-saving, convenient operation, and fast and uniform mixing.
What are the materials of vertical mixers? How to choose?
Answer: Conventional options include carbon steel, 201 stainless steel, and 304 stainless steel.
-Carbon steel: Low cost, suitable for dry and non corrosive materials, indoor use;
-201 stainless steel: mostly used in the chemical and plastic industry;
-304 stainless steel: Highly corrosive, salt containing, acid alkali materials are preferred.
Can vertical mixers be customized? What is the capacity of the mixing tank?
Answer: Standard models include 500KG, 1000KG, 1500KG, 2000KG, 3000KG, 4000KG, 5000KG, 10000KG, etc., and can also be customized according to customer needs.
How long is the mixing time for a vertical mixer?
Answer: The mixing time is usually 8-15 minutes; Moisture containing materials should be appropriately prolonged according to their viscosity, and it is not recommended to idle for a long time to avoid material heating. The normal mixing uniformity can reach over 95%; Excessive differences in material specific gravity and severe clumping can affect the mixing effect. It is recommended to crush before stirring.
How to match the motor power? Will overloading cause shutdown?
Answer: The power is selected based on the tank volume and material density; The equipment is equipped with overload protection. If there is too much material feeding or material clumping and jamming, the protection will be triggered and the machine will shut down. It needs to be restarted after cleaning the materials.
Performance parameters of vertical mixer:
1. Suitable for mixing and stirring various plastic raw materials with color masterbatch, with better results when mixing new, old materials and color masterbatch.
2. The spiral conveyor pipe circulates the material from the bottom to the top, making the mixing of raw materials more uniform and fast.
3. The contact surface between the equipment and raw materials is made of 201 stainless steel, which is easy to clean and avoids rust.
4. The equipment is equipped with an electronic safety protection device to ensure safe operation.
