What is the difference between vertical mixer and horizontal mixer?

Vertical mixers and horizontal mixers are two common mixing equipment, and they have some differences in structure and use. Here are the main differences between Vertical mixers and horizontal mixers:

Comparative Item vertical mixer horizontal mixer
Structural form The stirring shaft of the vertical mixer is vertically upward or downward, and the container is usually cylindrical or conical. The mixing shaft of a horizontal mixer is horizontal, and the container is usually a cylindrical or oval shape placed horizontally.
Mixing method The mixing blades of the vertical mixer are usually fixed on the mixing shaft, and the materials are mixed by the rotation of the mixing shaft. The mixing blades of the horizontal mixer mix the materials through the rotation of the mixing shaft and the movement of the mixing blades, with both radial and tangential motion.
Scope of use Vertical mixers are suitable for mixing tasks with smaller capacities and are commonly used in laboratories, small-scale production and special process requirements. Horizontal mixers are suitable for larger-capacity mixing tasks and are widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing and other fields in industrial production.
Material fluidity Since the vertical mixer container is usually cylindrical or conical, the material has good fluidity in the container and is easy to achieve uniform mixing. The shape of the horizontal mixer container may have a certain impact on the fluidity of the material, and it needs to be designed and adjusted according to the properties of the specific material.
Container installation Vertical mixers usually need to be fixed to the ground or other support structures to ensure the stability of the equipment. Horizontal mixers can be placed directly on a horizontal workbench or the ground.
Equipment occupied space Since the mixing shaft of the vertical mixer is vertical, the overall height of the equipment is high and the space occupied is relatively large. The mixing shaft of the horizontal mixer is horizontal, the overall height is low, and the space occupied is relatively small.
