We offer technical solutions in the field of mechanical process engineering, with a focus on mixing, crushing, recycling and filtration. With over 300 employees and a number of subsidiaries, BHS-Sonthofen has a global presence. Over 125 years of experience in mixing technology BHS-Sonthofen invented the first twin-shaft batch mixer back in 1888 and has been systematically upgrading the design ever since. Today,...

Function and application Previously, cost-intensive wet processing was necessary in order to extract valuable rock grade from contaminated input material. Dry processing with the addition of quick lime is not possible with conventional continuous mixers due to the extremely short processing time and poor mixing effect. An economical alternative has now been developed in the form of the patented BHS Combimix system. The Combimix system transforms the twin-shaft batch mixer into a continuously operating mixer with its proven threedimensional mixing concept. This enables a significantly improved...

  Initial separation via roller screen 3   Coarse grade goes directly to jaw crusher and then to gravel plant 4   Clay-contaminated material is fed into the BHS Combimix system and mixed with quick lime   Mixed material is fed to the sieving process 7   Material bigger than 5 mm is transferred for further processing 8   If suitable, material smaller than 5 mm can be used as fertilizer, for example 5   Quick lime is dispensed from the silo into the mixer via a screw conveyor with volumetric dosing (between 1 and 5%, depending on the clay content of the input material). On request, weight-dependent...
