The PerMix PTP series paddle mixers feature an innovative design derived from the well-known plough mixers (or blade mixers, plough mixers). The paddle mixer provides the same mixing performance as the blade mixer, but requires significantly less energy consumption. Due to the lower rotational speed of the blades, the wear on the mixing element of the paddle mixer is also lower than that of the blade. In addition, PerMix paddle mixers cope better with viscous/sticky materials such as slurry, because the plow-shaped mixing elements tend to stick to sticky materials, while the blades do not.
Compared to conventional ribbon mixers, paddle mixers are superior in that they are able to mix material more aggressively while maintaining similar power consumption due to the fact that the uniquely designed paddles are more inclined than the ribbons in a ribbon mixer and can move more material in one go.
The main difference between our PTP Paddle Mixer and the PTS Ploughshare Mixer is the mixing element: the PTS mixer uses a blade-shaped element, while the PTP mixer uses a paddle element. PerMix PTP Paddle Mixers can be used anywhere that blade mixers are used, including but not limited to blending, thorough mixing, dispersing, suspending, emulsifying, deaerating, tempering, accelerating chemical or physical reactions, granulating, breaking agglomerates, etc.
Both paddle and blade mixers are "aggressive mixers" that are well suited for processes with high mixing ratios up to 1:1,000,000
LABORATORY AND PILOT MODELS
PerMix designs a full range of paddle mixers including lab (up to 5L) and pilot (up to 45L) models for R&D purposes. The small machine is very helpful for customers when R&D ingredients are expensive, thus helping our customers save their limited budget at the first stage. With the good performance of lab and pilot mixer, it can be easily scaled up to medium or even larger.
MULTIPLE CHOPPERS DESIGN:
Installing a PerMix Multi-chopper in the basic PTP powder mixer enables the breakdown of agglomerates during the mixing process.
Together with the mixing element, the PerMix Multi-chopper removes lumps in the starting product, breaks up pasty adhesives and prevents agglomeration during the wetting of powdered substances. The PerMix Multi-chopper is operated independently by its own motor.
OPTIONAL FEATURES:
- Different types of mixing elements
PerMix mainly supplies two types of mixing elements: blade (for PTS mixer) and paddle (for PTP mixer). Both have their advantages: the blade-shaped element shortens the mixing time and can easily penetrate dense powder or paste, while the paddle element requires less energy consumption and can handle viscous slurry materials.
- Continuous process
PerMix supplies continuous mixers where high hourly throughput is required for the same material. Continuous paddle mixers differ from batch mixers in that the mass flow of the product is from the chamber inlet to the discharge at the opposite end.
- Heating/Cooling Jacket
Jacketed chamber for heating/cooling with steam, thermal oil or water. Optional ASME/PED certification for high pressure operation.
- Product feeding and unloading
Customers can choose different methods to feed and discharge the product. The discharge port can be operated manually or pneumatically.
- Access door
Access doors can be designed to be easy to clean, inspect and maintain.
- Construction material
We are able to offer mixers with parts in contact with the product made of carbon steel, stainless steel AISI 304, AISI 316 / 316L, titanium, stainless steel Duplex, Hastelloy etc. For abrasive materials we offer hardened steel as the part in contact with the product or the mixing elements can be coated with materials such as tungsten carbide or equivalent. We also produce mixers completely built of stainless steel to meet high hygiene requirements.
- Drive
Drive system by gear motor, cycloidal reducer, worm reducer, belt or chain transmission, etc.
- Advanced machine foundations
PerMix mixer outlet spacing is available according to customer requirements, with extended machine bases, pipe frames, platform etc.
- Spray nozzle
Liquid can be added to the powder using spray nozzles on a pipe installed on top of the mixing chamber. The necessary pump and tank can also be supplied by PerMix.
VACUUM DRYER-MIXER:
With special modifications, the PerMix PTP series paddle mixer can be used as a multi-stage process vessel, eliminating the need for additional specialized equipment. It can be used as a mixer-dryer, mixer-granulator, deaerator, reactor and cooler.
