A versatile mixer for chemical and thermal processing
The continuous Ploughshare mixers of the KM series (photo) are particularly suitable for environmental engineering applications. This low-maintenance mixer model is intended for processing powders, fibrous or granular solids, as well as fluids and pastes. The continuous mixer even performs granulating processes with minimum retention times. It is characterized by excellent repeatability, maximum homogeneity of the final product, short retention times and great economic efficiency. Beyond processing of dry, powdered, granular or fibrous solids, it can also be equipped for numerous other mixing tasks. The smallest model (with a drum volume of 5 L) has a feedrate of 0.25 m3/h based on retention time and degree of filling. The feedrate of the largest model to date (57,000-L drum volume) is 1,300 ton/h. Hall A4, Stand 441 — Gebr. Lödige Maschinenbau GmbH, Paderborn, Germany
