Continuous mixers - Import export

The CoriMix® is a high-speed, continuous mixer for high throughputs, especially developed for homogeneous mixing of liquid and pasty components into dry substances. The system is based on the high peripheral speed of the mixing shaft tools of up to 50 m/s. The product is moved through the mixing chamber in a plug-flow manner. The retention time is extremely short compared with a continuous ploughshare mixer. The mixing chamber is divided into zones with different mixing tools enabling different shear intensity by selecting and adjusting the mixing tools according to each application. Liquid components are introduced directly into the product ring layer – either via tangentially placed liquid pipes through the drum wall or via a hollow mixing shaft with specially perforated tools. However, moistening of the mixer wall and shaft is largely prevented. The liquid distribution is similar to a nozzle but avoiding any risk of clogging or disturbance of the spray.

The continuous ploughshare mixer uses the mixing and fluid process introduced to mixing technology by Lödige. The ploughshare shovels in special arrangement on a mixing shaft in a horizontal, cylindrical drum rotate. Their peripheral speed and geometric form are coordinated in such a way that the mix is moved out of the product bed against the centrifugal force and in axial direction at the same time. The mixing elements having a defined shape and a special arrangement on the shaft, they ensure not only a reliable product conveyance but also a sufficient back-mixing of the product. All the product is constantly involved in the process, ensures a maximum mixing intensity at even the highest throughputs and shortest residence times until the product is discharged out of the mixer via an outlet. The continuous process can be run at filling levels between 20 % and 50 % without influencing the mixing quality. Choppers can be additionally installed in the mixing drum.

Being produced in ELKON’s latest tech production facilities, mobile continuous mixing plants (pugmills) can be easily transported via axle and tyres installed on the main unit. Thanks to its superior mobile design, these plants are installed on a flat concrete surface without foundation requirement and can be relocated easily so that the user doesn’t have to travel long distances for material transportation. These mobile pugmill plants are mainly used for for subbase (stabilization) material with / without cement production and RCC concrete for dam or road pavement projects. Mobile continuous mixing plants, also known as WOLF in ELKON’s product range, are equipped with 5000/2500 l. ELKON continuous twinshaft mixer. All materials are mixed passing through ELKON C200 mixer continuously according to the recipe and flow speed.

Being produced in ELKON’s latest tech production facilities, stationary continuous mixing plants (pugmills) are mainly used for subbase (stabilization) material with / without cement production and RCC concrete for dam or road pavement projects. Equipped with 5000/2500 l. capacity ELKON continuous twinshaft mixer, there two models of pugmill plants, 300 tons/h and 500 tons/h capacity. In this mixing plants, thanks to aggregate bins equipped with dosing belts, it’s possible to adjust material flow rate by means of frequency inverters. Cement flow rate can also be precisely adjusted by a screw equipped with frequency inverter whilst the water flow by a proportional valve. All materials are mixed passing through ELKON C200 mixer continuously according to the recipe and flow speed.

Because quality is the basis for your success, we offer you our knowhow and our production facilities for contract manufacturing Many wellknown manufacturers take advantage of this service and develop – jointly with Polyplast Müller – specific products that are exclusively manufactured. Every product is developed jointly with you in our wellequipped quality laboratories that greatly exceed industrial standards. Stateoftheart production processes such as Buss kneaders, twin screw extruders, as well as continuous and discontinuous mixers can be selected for the most varied applications. At the same time, the extensive quality assurance system ensures consistent product quality. The stricter the requirements, the more attractive will be the challenge for the Polyplast Müller engineers – because only when we can put our entire expertise to work will the product be optimal.
