MIKRONS Double Planetary Mixer

They are also called as twin shaft mixer in which the shafts rotate around a sun gear. The blades are simple rectangular "gate" blades oriented ninety degrees from each other. The paths of the blades intersect and pass within the tank wall. This high torque, low speed mixers mix viscous ingredients into a homogenous product.

• In the mixing process, two vertically mounted mixing tools rotate around a common sun gear. In addition, they rotate at a higher speed around their own axes, according to the planetary principle
• A swinging type scraper continually sweeps the inside wall, transporting material from the walls of the vessel to the mixing tools

• For mixed products that must be heated or cooled, MIKRONS has designed jacketed vessels for hot oil, electrical heating, steam heating and liquid cooling.
• MIKRONS has designed moveable and tiltable mixing vessels, with or without a bottom discharge valve for less viscous liquids
• Where necessary, alterations can be made in the shape of the mixing tools, a third mixing tool may be added, a homogenizer unit (with deflector)can be supplied - and other performance proven mixing elements may be supplied for special duties.
• A MIKRONS DISSOLVER UNIT for fine dispersion, with its own drive unit, available with or without variable speed, has proven itself a good process accelerator for dealing with special dispersions.
