EIRICHMixing Technology for Glass Batches The unique working principle Rotating pan for transporting the process material Variable-speed mixing tool, slow to fast, for mixing and granulating The results Separation of the material transport from the mixing operation creates numerous advantages compared to other, simple mixing systems: a better quality of mix, far less wear. This mixing principle offers the following options: ■ At high tool speeds (compared to other mixing systems) - agglomerates are disintegrated to optimum effect - additives required in very small quantities are effectively mixed in without premixing - liquids (e.g. water, caustic soda, water glass, glycerin) are uniformly distributed ■ The mixer is suitable not only for mixing but also for coating and granulating, that means granules can be produced in the mixer e.g. from filter dust ■ Sequential mixing for future-orientated production ■ Continuous intensive mixing, e.g. directly in front of the batch charger Further advantages: ■ Mixing cycles / mixing speeds adjustable to new technologies ■ Demixing-free mixing without dead spaces in the mixer ■ Raw materials with various densities and particle sizes can be mixed without difficulty ■ Little wear compared to other mixing systems ■ Easy steam addition EIRICH customers tell from experiences: ■ Short mixing time, unsurpassed homogeneity of glass batches, high quality and uniform reproducibility of mixes ■ Ideal for „low iron“ task ■ Better distribution of water ■ Reduction of rejects thanks to better homogeneity of glass batches ■ Increase of furnace pull without loss of quality ■ Reduction of melting energy Top-name manufacturers around the world work with EIRICH mixing technology.
