Working principle and performance characteristics of planetary mixer
The planetary mixer has a unique and novel stirring form. There are two or three multi-layer blade agitators and 1 to 2 automatic scrapers in the kettle. The high-speed rotation of the axis makes the materials move in a complex manner in the kettle body, and is subjected to strong shearing and kneading. The efficiency is usually several times that of ordinary mixers.
A common planetary mixer usually consists of two low-speed planetary stirring impellers (usually multi-pitched blade type, twist type, frame type), one or two high-speed planetary stirring impellers (dispersing discs) and wall scraping paddles.
The characteristics of the planetary mixer are:
The main engine is designed with a planetary gear reducer, which has low noise and high mechanical efficiency, which can save power usage and reduce the space occupied by equipment. The machine is suitable for mixing, reacting, dispersing, dissolving, Conditioning and tempering process, such as ink, pigment, adhesive, sealant, encapsulation ointment, paste material, grease, paint, paste cosmetics, additives and other high-viscosity preparations. The use viscosity range is about 10,000～1,000,000CP. The form of the agitator can be multi-layer paddle type, frame type, butterfly type, outer wheel type, etc. according to the material requirements.
Compared with ordinary mixers, it has the following advantages and disadvantages:
advantage
High efficiency, its stirring principle determines its stronger stirring efficiency than ordinary mixers.
It has a wide range of applications. Studies have shown that planetary mixers can be used for most materials with a viscosity of 1 million pcs and a solid content below 90%. With a variety of mixers and other auxiliary devices, it can completely replace most ordinary mixers on the market.
shortcoming
The structure is complex. The planetary mixer usually achieves planetary motion through planetary gear transmission. The transmission box has a complex structure and is not easy to maintain. Often accompanied by noise problems.
The price is high, whether it is the transmission box or the paddle bucket, it needs to be precisely processed, and its price is much higher than that of ordinary mixers.
