Double Planetary Mixer: Solve The Difficulty Of Mixing High Viscosity Materials | JCT Machinery

1. Double Planetary Mixing Mechanism

The core of double planetary mixer is its planetary mixing mechanism. Two or more stirring paddles not only rotate around their owm axis, but also orbit along the fixed inner wall track of the barrel. This complex dual motion mode can ensure that the material leaves no dead corners in the mixing barrel, achieving all-round and uniform mixing, especially suitable for high-viscosity materials.

2. Strong Shear and Mixing Force

High viscosity materials have poor fluidity and are difficult to mix evenly. Double paddles of double planetary mixer can provide great shear force when rotating and revolving, which can effectively break the sticky layer of the material and make the inside of the material evenly mixed. This strong shearing action can help to quickly disperse and mix high viscosity materials evenly.

3. High-power Drive

In order to cope with high viscosity materials, double planetary mixer is usually equipped with high-power drive devices to provide sufficient torque to overcome the high viscosity resistance of the material and ensure the smooth operation of the stirring paddles. This is especially important when dealing with very high viscosity materials, and conventional mixing equipment may not be able to provide enough power to stir these materials.

4. Efficient Scraping Design

Double planetary mixer is usually equipped with scraping devices, which can scrape the materials on the barrel wall during mixing to prevent the materials from adhering to the barrel wall. This ensures that all materials in the barrel are mixed evenly without leaving residues, and improves the mixing efficiency, which is especially important in the mixing process of high viscosity materials.

5. Vacuum Mixing (optional function)

Double planetary mixer can be equipped with a vacuum system to allow mixing under vacuum conditions to reduce the generation of bubbles during mixing. This is especially important for high viscosity materials, because bubbles are difficult to dissipate in high viscosity materials. Vacuum environment can avoid the generation of bubbles and improve the density and uniformity of the product.

6. Heating or Cooling Function (optional function)

In order to handle different high viscosity materials, double planetary mixer can usually also be equipped with heating or cooling systems. At high temperatures, the fluidity of some high viscosity materials will be improved, making it easier to mix. Some special materials need to be operated in a low temperature environment to ensure that the material properties are not damages. These functions can be customized according to the material characteristics to ensure the best mixing effect.

7. Suitable For a Variety of High Viscosity Materials

Double planetary mixer is suitable for mixing a variety of high viscosity materials, such as paste materials, viscous resins, silicones, greases, sealants, adhesives, lithium battery slurries, etc. In these applications, the viscosity of the materials is high and difficult to disperse evenly, and double planetary mixer can effectively handle these problems.
