Industrial Planetary Cement Mixer VS Twin Shaft Concrete Mixer
Feb 20, 2023
What is the difference between the twin shaft concrete mixer and planetary cement mixer? Lets have a look together.
Working principle
Compared to planetary concrete mixer, twin shaft mixer has a longer history. As a compulsory concrete mixer, its mixing principle is relatively simple. The mechanical force mainly comes from the horizontal mixing shaft installed in the mixing drum, and the main shaft rotates to drive the mixing shovel set on the shaft to realize even mixing.
The mixing principle of the planetary mixer is more complicated, and its performance is obviously better than that of many concrete mixing equipment. It can ensure that the aggregate particles and the properties of the material are not damaged during the mixing process.
The planetary mixing device pushes the material to complete a series of mixing processes. The blades installed on the shaft generate a strong mixing force to push the material to move in both axial and radial directions. The material is vigorously and fully mixed, which greatly improves the mixing uniformity of the material.
Industrial applications
The double-shaft concrete mixer is mainly used for mixing low-flow dry hard concrete, semi-dry concrete and lightweight aggregate concrete. Due to the emergence of new aggregates, industrial planetary concrete mixer have been promoted and used. Today's vertical shaft planetary mixers are completely used in the refractory industry, cement prefabricated parts industry, ceramic mixers,etc.
In terms of improving the mixing efficiency and uniformity of materials, the industrial concrete planetary mixer adopts the principle of planetary mixing. The combination of rotation and revolution forms a strong and complex planetary mixing track, which greatly reduces the resistance during material mixing and avoids the occurrence of material accumulation and shaft holding.
The industrial planetary mixer has a compact overall structure design, and the planetary gear box designed according to the high-strength working conditions of the concrete industry makes the mixing of materials more homogeneous, faster, and more environmentally friendly.
