Planetary Mixers

Planetary Mixers

Planetary Mixers are used for intensive mixing, dispersing, kneading, and deaerating products such as adhesives, sealants, light caulks, pastes, coatings, granulations, and similar products of medium to high viscosity. Rotation of the Planetary Blades on their own axis while they travel around the center of the mixing bowl ensures complete and effective mixing.

The mixers are available in various sizes, with or without self-aligning bowl scrapers, and manual or hydraulic lifts. Heavy-duty construction allows the production of newer and tougher compounds in a trouble-free manner, while also being very durable and reliable in operation. The mixers are manufactured to rigid standards with many features and options available.

Common Features

• Single or Double Planetary Blades.
• Floating scraper blade adjusts to bowl contour.
• Single base structure to for simplicity in mounting.
• Lift manually or hydraulically operated (air/oil or electric pump)
• Special steel planetary gears, heat treated and hardened for durable, long life.
• Stirrup, Vertical, or combinations of blades available.
• Heating, Cooling or Vacuum Construction

Advantages

• Optimum homogenization of mixing material, even in challenging applications
• Low wear and minimal maintenance
• Minimal waste
• Mixing stars rotate on different axes
• Material is completely recirculated with only one revolution of the mixing tools
