Twin Shaft Mixer

Concrete twin-shaft mixers are horizontal mixers which work with a rotation of two horizontal mixing shafts (Figure 2). Typical components of these machines are the motors, one or more for each shaft, the gear boxes, the shafts, the tank and the mixing organs: Blades, arms, and connections.Double Shaft Mixers are used for thorough mixing of finely grinded clay materials with water added to obtain the optimum workability. They are ideal for high volume batch production where fragile materials are being mixed and gentle mixers are required, There are two main types of mixers: batch and continuous. In each type there are several configurations. The efficiency of a mixer is determined by the homogeneity of the concrete produced.A concrete mixer (often colloquially called a cement mixer) is a device that homogeneously combines cement, aggregate such as sand or gravel, and water to form concrete. A typical concrete mixer uses a revolving drum to mix the components.Concrete mixers are devices capable of preparing concrete mixtures of varying strength precisely as well as quickly. Some concrete mixers are even capable of dispensing the concrete mixture directly on the location of the construction, The term shaft usually refers to a component of circular cross section that rotates and transmits power from a driving device, such as a motor or engine, through a machine. Shafts can carry gears, pulleys and sprockets to transmit rotary motion and power via mating gears, belts and chains.
