What is twin shaft paddle mixer?

Twin shaft paddle mixer is an industrial mixing equipment consisting of two rotating shafts and paddles mounted on the shafts. Through the rotation and interaction of the paddles, the materials are fully mixed and stirred to achieve uniform mixing. This equipment is suitable for mixing materials in different forms such as powders, granules, and liquids. It is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing and other industries to improve production efficiency and product quality.

Composition Structure of Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer:

Twin shaft paddle mixer usually consists of the following main components:

Mixing container: A container used to hold the materials to be mixed, usually cylindrical or oval, with good sealing properties.

Dual shaft: It consists of two parallel rotating shafts, usually made of stainless steel and has sufficient strength and rigidity.

Paddles: A plurality of paddles, usually in the shape of a spiral, mounted on a shaft, their number and arrangement determined by specific design and mixing requirements.

Transmission device: used to drive the rotation of the shaft, usually using electric motors and gear transmission.

Discharge port: used to discharge mixed materials, usually located at the bottom of the mixing container.

Working Principle of Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer：

Twin shaft paddle mixer consists of two parallel rotating shafts and multiple paddles. When the device is started, the two shafts rotate simultaneously and the blades are arranged in a spiral on the shafts. The material is pushed by the rotating blades and continuously rises and falls, thereby achieving all-round mixing of the material. The working principle of the twin-shaft paddle mixer is similar to mixing, but due to the rotational motion of the twin-shaft paddles, the mixing effect is more uniform.

Advantages of Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer:

Twin shaft paddle mixer has the following advantages:

Efficient mixing: Due to the rotational motion of the twin-shaft blades, the material can be fully mixed in a short time, avoiding the problems of material stratification and uneven mixing, and improving the mixing efficiency.

Suitable for a variety of materials: Twin shaft paddle mixer is suitable for processing various material combinations such as powders, granules, the mixing of granules and powders, and the mixing of liquids and solids, and has wide applicability.

Adjustable mixing parameters: Users can adjust parameters such as rotation speed, mixing time, and blade arrangement according to different material characteristics and mixing requirements to obtain the best mixing effect.

Good corrosion resistance and easy cleaning: Twin shaft paddle mixer is usually made of stainless steel, has good corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, and meets hygienic requirements.

Applications of Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer:

Twin shaft paddle mixers are widely used in multiple industries, including but not limited to the following fields:

Chemical industry: used for mixing pigments, dyes, rubber, plastics and other materials.

Pharmaceutical industry: used for mixing pharmaceutical powders, tablets, capsules and other drugs.

Food industry: suitable for mixing flour, condiments, food additives, etc.

Metallurgical industry: used for mixing ore, slag and other materials.

Environmental protection industry: suitable for mixing in wastewater treatment, waste treatment and other fields.

In short, the twin shaft paddle mixer achieves all-round mixing of materials through the rotation of the twin-shaft paddles. It has the advantages of efficient mixing, suitability for a variety of materials, adjustable mixing parameters, and a wide range of application scenarios. It plays an important role in chemical, pharmaceutical, food and other industries, providing efficient and reliable mixing solutions for the production process.
