Trough Mixer: Suitable for Dry and Wet Materials
Material Types
CH series trough mixers mix powder or wet materials. They blend main and minor ingredients in different proportions to a uniform state. They are widely used for dry powder mixing in pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and electronics industries.
Construction and Mixing Action
Parts in contact with material are made of stainless steel. The gap between paddle and trough body is small, so there are no dead zones. Sealing devices at both ends of the mixing shaft prevent material leakage. The hopper uses push-button jog control, which makes discharge convenient. The unit uses mechanical rotation to turn an S-shaped paddle. The paddle pushes material back and forth for uniform mixing. Electrical control allows the operator to set mixing time, and the machine stops automatically when time is up. This improves batch-to-batch mixing quality. The mixer suits materials with high uniformity requirements and large differences in specific gravity. It has a compact structure, simple operation, clean appearance, small floor space, easy cleaning, and good mixing results. When replacement paddles, shafts, or sealing parts are needed, Hansheng Automation can machine them to customer drawings.
3D Mixer: Best for Free-Flowing Powders and Granules
Material Suitability
The 3D mixer is suitable for mixing free-flowing powder or granular materials. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, food, metallurgy, light industry, and research settings.
Motion and Mixing Effect
During operation, the mixing drum moves in multiple directions. This motion speeds up flow and diffusion of materials. It also avoids specific gravity segregation and accumulation caused by centrifugal force in ordinary mixers. The mix has no dead zones and maintains consistent quality.
Construction and GMP Design
The machine consists of a base, transmission system, electrical control system, multi-directional motion mechanism, and mixing drum. The drum that contacts material is made of stainless steel. Its inner and outer walls are polished, meeting GMP requirements.
Uniformity and Load Capacity
The multi-directional drum motion creates many crossing points for material mixing. Mixing efficiency is high, and uniformity can reach over 99.9%. The maximum loading coefficient is 0.9, compared with 0.85 for ordinary mixers. Mixing time is short. The drum design is unique, the inner wall is finely polished, and there are no dead zones. The drum does not contaminate material. Discharge is convenient, cleaning is easy, and operation is simple.
Which One Fits the Material?
Use a trough mixer when the batch includes wet materials or when dry powders need blending with a high uniformity target and large specific gravity differences. Use a 3D mixer when the material is free-flowing powder or granules and the process requires short cycle time, high uniformity, and GMP-compliant contact surfaces.
Our precision custom machining capability is not limited to mixers. Hansheng Automation also produces parts for filling machinery, printing machinery, and food processing equipment, along with precision components for yachts and RC cars. From one-off parts to small batch runs, we machine to customer drawings and deliver parts for assembly.
