A continuous mixer refers to a mixing method where different materials are continuously fed into the equipment according to a predetermined ratio. The residence time of the materials inside the vessel is controlled by adjusting the speed of the conveying equipment, the mixing machine's rotation speed, and the discharge speed. Under the action of the mixing components, the desired mixing effect is achieved while allowing a continuous mixed material stream.
S&L continuous mixer is an industrial mixing machine for high duty blending application, characterized by continuous material feeding and discharge, as well as high production capacity. When choosing this equipment, users need to provide detailed material characteristics and production requirements to ensure the proper selection by our company.

Drive unit
Continuous mixers are typically driven by gear reducers, and the motor speed is adjusted using a frequency-controlled motor. The rotational speed of the main shaft is several times higher than that of batch mixers to ensure effective mixing.

Liquid injection
Above the choppers, atomizing nozzles can be added to achieve liquid addition mixing. Due to the lower density of the material under the shear of the choppers at this position, the atomized liquid is more easily able to penetrate and mix with the powder material.

Optional choppers
For certain special materials, choppers can be optionally equipped for disaggregation and dispersion.

Feeding method
A screw conveyor or belt conveyor is utilized, and a frequency converter is used to adjust the feeding speed to match the discharge speed.
Mixer with Retractable Rotor
The retractable rotor mixer has been developed to meet the needs of specific applications and industries. In cases where manual or CIP cleaning cannot thoroughly remove any materials that may have become stuck to mixing elements or in hard-to-reach areas, the shaft can be completely retracted for further cleaning. This design enables customers to entirely solve the problem of cleaning viscous materials and performing maintenance tasks in the future. The unique design reduces downtime for cleaning and minimizes the potential for cross contamination. An easy to access mixing chamber ensures a hygienic mixing environment.
Working Principle
The retractable rotor mixer is equipped with a quick clamp structure between the end plate and end flange of the vessel body. The shaft can be conveniently and quickly opened away from the vessel. The input shaft connects to the reducer and is held in place by the reducer bearing, while the other side of the shaft is positioned by two bearings. The rail guide ensures that the shaft can be fully opened and driven by a motor or manually operated. However, a PLC control system is required to operate the machine, and a position sensor is needed to ensure that the shaft stops at the same position if it needs to be pulled open.
