Vertical kneader: A vertical mixing chamber, where the mixing blades are arranged in a vertical configuration.
Sigma blade mixer: A horizontal mixing chamber, where the mixing blades are arranged in a horizontal, sigma-shaped configuration.
Vertical Kneader: Two sets of sigma-shaped blades that rotate in opposite directions, creating intense shearing and kneading actions.
Sigma blade mixer: Two sigma-shaped blades that rotate in a horizontal plane, intermeshing with each other.
Vertical kneader: Famous for their efficient mixing and kneading of high-viscosity materials. Vertical kneaders are especially effective for materials that require intense shear forces.
Sigma blade mixer: Highly efficient at mixing, blending, and kneading, making sigma blade mixers suitable for a wide range of applications.
Vertical kneaders are suitable for applications that involve highly viscous materials, where the vertical configuration and duplex blade design provide efficient mixing. Sigma mixers, on the other hand, are versatile and can handle various materials in both the food and chemical industries due to their horizontal sigma-shaped design.
