Sicoma Strength    LABORATORY MIXER, MP75LAB

Sicoma laboratory planetary/countercurrent mixerTo meet the need for lab testing of new mix designs, and for training in technical centers and universities, a compact planetary / countercurrent mixer is available.  Mixing action is identical to the larger planetary models;  this intense action truly mimics the action in the best full size models from Sicoma and other leading manufacturers, giving superior strength concrete and allowing mix designs to be optimized with lower proportions of cement.  This can create a huge saving when these mix designs are produced;  the cost of the mixer can be recovered in one month in typical plants.  It is ideal to use the combination of this lab mixer and the Scale-Tron Redilink mix design software to maximize savings on cement.  In comparison, the tilt-up drum mixer will give inferior strength, making your mix designs appear to need more cement and costing extra on every day of production.

The model MP75LAB mixer has been modified for maximum convenience in lab use and has all the extra features normally required for the application:

bulletMixing mechanism and cover with power lift to allow access.
bulletFilling chute with dust cover.
bulletTipping mechanism for raised mixing pan allows whole pan
to rotate and discharge into wheelbarrow or trolley .
bulletElectric pan heaters and temperature sensors to control
temperature of mix.
bulletVariable speed mixing motor.
bulletSafety guards on all moving parts
bulletConsole type control system for all functions, including
motor ammeter

The pan is first cleaned, checked and placed in the horizontal position.  The mixing gear is then lowered into position and the test batch is charged through the top-loading chute.  Mixing is started and speed controlled by the VFD control.  Temperature is controlled with the sensor/heater on the base of the mixer pan.  When mixing is complete, the mixing gear is fully raised, allowing the pan to be turned to its tipped position for discharge and cleaning.
