As a result of its separate mixing shafts, maintenance is easier on a Dual Shaft mixer than on a Concentric Shaft mixer. One benefit of the Dual Shaft configuration is that it will handle most multi-shaft mixing jobs. Dual shaft mixers, like this one, are most often used to mix medium to very high viscosity products, and are used in the making of printing inks, caulks, hot melt adhesives, lotions, toothpaste, and more.
Like the HHL-III Dual Shaft Mixer/Disperser, the HHL-II utilizes a center-mounted low speed helical or anchor blade, which ensures accurate dispersion by sweeping the mixing vessel wall and a high-speed dispersion shaft to ensure proper dispersion. HHL-II Dual Shaft Mixer / Disperser: Easier Maintenance with Excellent Performance
Additionally, high-speed dispersers alone have a limited zone of influence in viscous products, so the low-speed blade is necessary to achieve a uniform, well-blended mixture. The scrapers are stacked on top of each other in a continuous row, creating complete coverage of the sidewall and bottom of the tank. Wondering why low speed blades are an essential feature of this mixer? Using low speed to assist in effectively mixing materials may seem counterintuitive, but the low speed blade feeds the high-speed dispersion blade(s) by blending and folding the mass in the vessel to improve product uniformity, while the patented scrapers provide excellent heat transfer and aid in powder incorporation.Īnother benefit of multi-shaft mixers like the HHL-III Triple Shaft Mixer is their use of bi-directional teflon scrapers. Triple-shaft mixers like the HHL-III are most often used to mix medium to high viscosity products, and are typically used when making materials like sealants, caulks, magnetic media slurry, creams, and more. To ensure the proper dispersion of highly viscous materials, Hockmeyer’s multi-shaft mixers have a center mounted low speed helical or anchor blades which sweep the mixing vessel wall and one or more high-speed dispersion shafts, which provide shear to disperse or dissolve ingredients. Hockmeyer’s next high viscosity mixing solution? Multi shaft mixers like the HHL-III Triple Shaft Mixer/Disperser. HHL-III Triple Shaft Mixer / Disperser: Low Speed and High Speed Blades Work Together to Ensure Uniform Mixtures Plus, in addition to durability and efficiency, this mixer requires less power than similarly sized machines since no motion is wasted during the blending process. As a result, the Horizontal Paste Mixer is ideal for everything from adhesives, sealants, and printing inks, to polyesters, ceramics, pharmaceuticals, and more. This mixer’s overlapping arms prevent material buildup, while the double rolling action of the blades moves the material against the side of the tank for excellent shear (the relative movement of adjacent layers in a liquid or plastic during flow) and wetting (the interaction between the surface of a liquid and the surface of a solid or another liquid). These jackets create an excellent temperature transfer for thermal fluid operations, establishing temperature control within the batch, and have the capability of being divided into multi-pass zones to increase process flexibility. Additionally, Hockmeyer’s jacketed tanks can be used to ensure uniform temperature control when producing high-temperature industrial processing applications. Looking for a sturdy, efficient mixer to handle large volumes of highly viscous materials? Hockmeyer’s Horizontal Paste Mixer features triple mixing blades for uniform wetting and fast mixing of even the toughest materials, as well as a specially designed impeller that follows the contours of the tank precisely to help eliminate “dead” spots. Horizontal Mixer: Rugged Efficiency That Gets the Job Done Why? Because with challenging materials like these, achieving uniformity is often difficult, and that uniformity (or lack thereof) can have a significant impact on the performance, stability, and durability of the resulting product. When combining highly viscous materials that wouldn’t typically be blended together into a uniform substance, and dispersing powders into high viscosity liquids, selecting the right high-viscosity mixing equipment is essential to the success of your product.
