High Intensity Mixers are primarily used in the processing of plastics, toners, and color concentrates. The mixers are a batch style unit that consist of a vertical bowl, a bottom entry drive shaft for the mixing tools, lid, bottom side discharge, and a motor.
The interior of the bowl, tools, and lid are made of Stainless Steel construction to prevent in deterioration caused by the product. All areas not in contact with the product are made out of a mild steel construction. The tools that mix the material are belt driven by pulleys that are mounted with the drive and driven shafts. High Intensity Mixer manufacturers such as Reliance Industries, Inc. size their units from 4L lab units to 2000L production units. The units come with many easy clean and maintenance friendly features.
The mixing tools fluidize the material in the mixer. Material is brought up to proper temperature due to the forced vortex motion of the material and the subsequent friction. When material has reached its proper state it is discharged from the bowl through a pneumatically actuated discharge chute.
In an Automated Blending System, as is found in many PVC Pipe and Siding manufacturing plants, the High Intensity Mixer in conjunction with High Efficiency Cooler form the heart of the process.
