We develop customised solutions, adapted perfectly to your application and product, for any of your tasks. Extremely high mixing quality Short mixing times Reproducibility of batches Gentle product treatment High availability Low-maintenance mixer concept Easy accessibility of all internal mixer components Multi-stage processes in one machine The Ploughshare® Mixer for batch operation uses the mixing and fluid process introduced to mixing technology by Lödige. High-quality mixes are achieved through equipment with tools which are adapted perfectly to the respective task. Ploughshare® Shovels arranged on a shaft in a special system rotate as mixing elements in a horizontally fitted, cylindrical drum. The size, number, positioning, geometrical shape and the peripheral speed of the mixing tools are adapted to each other such that they cause a three-dimensional movement of the components. The turbulence generated in the mix through this process results in quick and precise mixing. All material is constantly gripped by the mixing tools to prevent dead zones or zones with poor movement in the mixing chamber. An application-specific design of the mixing tools and adaptation of the mixing shaft speed permit highly flexible applications of the Lödige Ploughshare® Mixer, be it for treatment of bulk goods (powdered, grainy, fibrous) or for treatment of substances capable of being pumped.
