Product catalog summary
Mix Products and Solutions
MIX S.r.l. offers a diverse range of mixers for laboratory, industrial, and large-scale applications, with capacities from 2 to over 50,000 liters. These mixers support batch or continuous processes and can be equipped with various mixing tools like ploughshares, paddles, and ribbons. They are constructed from materials such as AISI 304(L), AISI 316(L), AISI 316(Ti), carbon steel, and wear-resistant steel, suitable for industries including foodstuff, chemical-cosmetic, construction, and ecology.
Quality and Innovation
The mixers incorporate components like a mixing chamber, drive side seal, inspection door, and rotor-shaft, ensuring high-quality mixing and innovative design.
Certification
MIX S.r.l. adheres to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 standards. Their products comply with the European Directive 2006/42/CE and can meet additional directives such as ATEX 2014/34/UE and PED 2014/68/UE upon request. Certifications from TÜV SUD are also available.
Mixing Tools
The document details mixing tools like ploughshare, mix paddle, and screw (ribbon), each tailored for specific mixing needs such as fluidization, homogenization, and gentle mixing.
Operation Principles
The mixers operate on principles like three-dimensional mechanical fluidization and mixing by movement, adaptable to different speeds and mixing requirements.
Batch and Continuous Mixing
Mixers are available for both batch and continuous processes, with detailed procedures for loading, mixing, and unloading. Specifications for various mixer models, including capacity and dimensions, are provided.
Reactor and Dryer Functions
Reactors and dryers are designed to modify pressure and temperature within the mixing chamber, facilitating chemical reactions and moisture extraction.
Accessibility and Maintenance
Features like inspection doors, top covers, and extractable shafts ensure easy access for cleaning and maintenance, crucial for sectors requiring frequent recipe changes.
Unloading Mechanisms
The mixers include round unloading doors and full-length discharge options to prevent unmixed product areas and ensure efficient discharge.
Door and Locking Reinforcement
Two electropneumatic cylinders are used for door and locking reinforcement, with one cylinder facilitating the closing door movement for full-length unloading with a 15° opening.
Front Unloading Door
The front unloading outlet with a slide valve is designed to control the duration products remain inside the mixing chamber.
Vertical Discharge with Diaphragm
Mixers with a vertical discharge port feature an adjustable diaphragm, allowing variation in the time products remain in the mixing chamber.
Continuous Mixer Discharge Ports
Includes adjustable diaphragms and slide gates for process-specific solutions.
Sampler System
The pneumatic sampler system allows for sample collection during the mixing phase, preventing product settling, and is installed on the mixer head for easy and repetitive operations.
Mix Seal
The rotor shaft's MIX seals consist of a cast iron base, wear-resistant bushing, synthetic or self-lubricated packing, and a stuffing box for easy maintenance. Non-flushed seals, such as mechanical seals, are available for special processes.
Choppers and Liquid Injection System
Side-mounted choppers with high-speed blades aid in product homogenization and lump reduction. The liquid injection system facilitates powder elimination and granulation.
Heat Exchanger
The MIX heat exchanger uses various fluids (glycol water, cold/hot water, hot oil, steam) to control the product's temperature, aiding in chemical and physical reaction management.
Pneumatic Cleaning of the Mixing Chamber
This patented system uses compressed air to clean the mixing chamber walls, enhancing machine cleanliness post-unloading without operator intervention.
Contact Information
MIX S.r.l., located in Cavezzo, Italy, provides mixing systems and components for plants. Contact details and website information are provided.

Mixing Tools The rotor shaft with tools, can be a single block obtained by welding, radially fixed at both ends and axially fixed only on the drive side, or the tools can be bolted to the rotor shaft with special self locking bolts. The rotor shaft has a suitably dimensioned structure, according to the products and the process planned. The specific shape of the tools is conceived to obtain the required mixing, homogenisation, granulation, aeration, depending on the mixed products. DEPENDING ON THE DIFFERENT PRODUCTS TO BE MIXED, THE FOLLOWING MIXING TOOLS ARE PROVIDED: PLOUGHSHARE Are composed...
