This is the horizontal single shaft plough shear mixer which is based on the principle of mechanical fluidization of the product. The particular shape, position and rotation speed of the mixing tools create a centrifugal vortex motion, which allows the products to be projected in a three dimensional way and to merge with each other. This ensures that components with a different particle size and bulk density are perfectly blended and mixed with high precision within the shortest possible time. This machine specifically suitable for lump forming products or little viscous products.
This can be used as dryer with heating jacket provision. The product is heated by the jacket (operated with hot water, steam or thermal oil) and the product moisture is thereby evaporated. A horizontal shaft along the longitudinal axis of the dryer drum is equipped with shovels for mixing & drying the product. This ensures that the product is heated evenly and “moist material” is brought continuously into contact with the heated wall. This guarantees efficient drying.
During a drying process, mixing shovels not only mix the product homogeneously but also transport the product to the inside wall of the dryer to ensure effective heat transfer. There are different types of shovels for different products depending on their density. viscosity etc. Extra provision can be made such as liquid injector, shaft heating, sampling device etc.
The dryer can be equipped with one or more choppers (high speed blades rotating on the inside wall of the dryer drum) to disintegrate the agglomerates and lumps in the product. The choppers are positioned in the drum in such a way that product is constantly conveyed towards them by the shovels. Dryers can be retrofitted with choppers.
A vertical filter with filter elements is mounted on the dryer drum to clean the vapours. When the vapours pass through the filter elements, dust particles are retained. The filter is cleaned by periodic bursts of N2 gas/air through the filter elements. Particles caking the filter drop back into the dryer and are returned to the process. For easy exchange the filter elements can be mounted on a plate which can be removed from the filter housing when required.
