vertical stroke mixer

Mixes Up and Down, Not Just Around.

Rotary mixing moves material around the vessel. It does not move it up and down, which is why a round-and-round mixer leaves a vessel that is uniform in rings and not top to bottom. This model adds a 30 mm vertical stroke to every eight rotations, driving axial flow through the batch so the whole vessel reaches uniformity faster. Everything else is the BL600: 0.7 N·m, 10 to 600 rpm, feedback control.

• Vessels that mix in rings, not top to bottom: A 30 mm up-and-down stroke every eight rotations drives axial flow through the batch, so uniformity reaches the whole vessel instead of a band around the blade.
• Mixers killed by overload: The current limiter keeps the motor driving through loads that shut ordinary mixers down. No throw-away mixers, no burned-out windings, no throw-away batches.
• Unmixed layers single-direction mixing leaves behind: Set forward and reverse cycles once and the mixer alternates automatically for the entire run, breaking up the ring-shaped dead zones.
