Description

Rapid Twin Shaft Concrete Mixers are ideal for ready mix and precast concrete industries where large volumes of high quality concrete are demanded. The powerful twin-shaft mixer, with counter rotating shafts, delivers fast mixing action and rapid discharge and handles mix designs with coarse aggregates.

  • Fully tiled mixing chamber using heavy duty extra thick 20mm chill cast tiles
  • Extra thick Ni-hard chill cast paddles
  • Large hydraulically operated discharge door
  • Fully integrated access and inspection hatches complete with tight sealing and clamping systems allow for viewing while mixing
  • Star mixing action is excellent for mixing fully homogenized semi-dry colored concrete
  • Unique arm design allows fitment at either 60°/ 90°, creating high turbulence and a homogenous mix in reduced time

Two parallel hexagonal shafts rotate in opposite directions creating opposing directional flows of material. This material is pulled into the center of the mixer causing a shearing action on the mix. This shearing action created by the material flow and the contradictory positioning of paddles produces a highly turbulent central mixing zone. This highly turbulent mixing zone enables a homogeneous mix to be formed in a short time period, thus reducing the mixing time.

The design of the mixing arms and paddles creates an area of high turbulence thus ensuring a homogeneous mix in a reduced space of time. The majority of the mixing takes place in the center of the mixer in the region above the floor. This reduces significantly the amount of wear on the tiles within the mixer thus prolonging the life span of the tiles.
