PLANETARY MIXER

SHASHVATH Planetary Mixer is ideal for mixing of wet / dry materials. It has a homogeneous mixing action. The planetary motion of the beater enables faster and better mixing of material at a considerably lesser time. Slow speed is used for dry mixing with less dust generation and faster speed for kneading operation during wet granulation portable mixing bowl with top mounted agitator has a dual advantage of material transfer and no risk of gland packing contamination.

CONSTRUCTION

The basis of mixing system of Planetary Mixer is a combination of planetary- rotating paddle agitator. 2 Nos. Anchor type agitator with cross baffles rotates in anti-clockwise direction with planetary motion in there axis. While paddle revolves in clockwise direction with planetary action, generating a disturbance in the normally circular flow pattern and dampen vortex formation. The mixing blade and planetary action having dual speed. In addition, adjustable scrapers are utilized to prevent the build-up of a stagnant film between the agitator and the vessel, and assure efficient heat transfer to product during heating and cooling steps. The speed of the agitator and the counter paddle can be varied separately.

The Product container is castor wheel mounted for easy load and unload to the machine. The top mixing blade assembly is motorized up and down during container loading and unloading. The mixing container is jacketed for heating / cooling and completely enclosed. The product container can be designed to operate under vacuum; mixing can then be performed without entrainment of air. Top lid of the product container having charging pot for binder adding, eye glass window and light glass.

Drive Mechanism For Beater:

Consists of the following:

  1. Suitable HP 1440/2880 RPM dual-speed TEFC motor to work on a 415 V, 50 c/s 3-phase AC supply line, mounted on an MS plate.
  2. Worm reduction gearbox coupled to the motor through a belt and pulley arrangement.
  3. Epicyclic gearbox coupled to the motor through a belt and epicyclic gear train arrangement to achieve planetary motion.
  4. Suitable HP 1440 RPM TEFC motor to work on a 415V 3-phase 50 c/s AC supply line for High Shear Emulsifier. (optional)
  5. The above items are assembled on the top plate, which is supported on a cast iron sliding sleeve with MS gussets.
