Planetary Mixer

Planatary Mixer: This equipment is basically a mixing assembly where the agitation pattern is of the planetary nature the beater or the agitation assembly rotate around itself as well as travel in a circle in the bowl thereby achieving intimate mixing. Because of special design feature of shifting the mass is uniformly and intimately mixed.

The unit consists of bowl SS cylindrical bowl with torrispherical dished bottom with inside surface polished to smooth finish. MS jacket on cylindrical and torrispherical area to operated on 3 Kg cm sq. steam pressure complete with steam inlet and cold water inlet and outlet connections with standard fitting like pressure gauge, vent cock, release valve and drain. Bowl also suitable for vacuum application and fitted with 3 nos. Of castor wheel, two fixed and one swivel type. Suitable locking lugs for fixing bowl to the machine.

Top Dish: SS top dish for covering the bowl with SS flange having groove for fixing the sealing gasket. Necessary connection with serrated nozzle provided for connecting flexible pipe for vacuum application Light and sight glasses suitably provided.

Agitator Assembly:
1, 2 Nos. Of SS open type Beaters.
1 No. SS Scrapper fitted with PTFE strip on both sides.
1 No. centrally located High Shear Emulsifier optional.

Drive Mechanism For Beater:
Consist of the following

• Suitable HP 1440, 2880 RPM dual sped TEFC motor to work on 415 V, 50 c/s 3 Phase AC supply line, mounted on MS plate.
• Worm reduction gear box coupled to the motor through belt and pulley arrangement.
• Epicyclic gear box coupled to the motor through belt and Epicyclic gear train arrangement to achieve planetary motion.
• Suitable HP 1440 RPM TEFC motor to work on 415V 3 phase 50 c/s AC supply line for High Shear Emulsifier. optional
