Three Dimensional Mixer

Three Dimensional Mixer Introduction

The mixing barrel of the three dimensional mixer moves in multi-direction. For the materials, there is no centrifugal function, without the specific gravity segregation and layer division. For each build-up phenomenon, there is a remarkable weight rate. The mixing rate is high. The material charge rate of the barrel is big. The maximum rate can be up to 90%. The barrel adopts arc shape connections and it's well polished and reaches GMP. the three dimensional mixer is also called 3D powder blender, 3D powder mixer, Multi direction powder mixer.

Hywell Machinery also has industrial 3D powder mixers from 100 liters to a max of 1500 liters if high volume powder mixers are required.

Three dimensional mixers are essential equipment in various industries, ranging from pharmaceuticals to food processing. They are used to mix powders, granules, and other solid materials to produce homogenous products. Three-dimensional mixers are a popular type of mixer that is versatile and efficient in mixing various materials.

Lab Three Dimensional Mixer Interchangeable Mixing Drums

For the lab three dimesnional powder blender sizes SYH-1 to SYH-20L, Hywell Machinery offers the option for the lab powder mixer to work with interchangeable drums. A drum holder is designed to hold the drum with fast assembly. When the mixer rotates, the drum and drum holder are rotated together by the two arms.

Moreover, drums of different sizes can be fit into the same drum holder with the necessary adaptor; for example, the SYH lab 3D powder mixer can work with drum sizes of 0.5L up to 10L, and 10-20L by one drum holder.

Three Dimensional Mixer Working Principles

During the powder mixing process, the powder moves in a random direction from the center to the end of the trough and at the same time from top to the bottom. In such a multi-dimensional way, the SYH series lab three dimensional blender needs only a short mixing time and relatively low power consumption. The mixer‘s “Gentle” mixing action is good for final products that are sensitive to the high shear of the mixer and tend to break or reduce their particle size, or are highly abrasive.

Components of a Three-Dimensional Mixer

The primary components of a three-dimensional blender include the mixing chamber, motor, control system, discharge system, and safety features.

Mixing Chamber

The mixing chamber is the part of the multi direction powder mixer where the blending process takes place. It can be of different shapes and sizes, depending on the type and size of the mixer. The mixing chamber must be robust enough to withstand the forces generated during the mixing process. For the lab 3D powder mixer, the mixing chamber volume from 0.5L to 20L and also can be interexchange.

Motor and gearbox

The motor provides the power to drive the drum rotating. It is usually an electric motor and can be of different sizes and power ratings, depending on the size and type of mixer. The motor must be designed to withstand the forces generated during the mixing process and be capable of providing a constant and consistent speed.

Control System

The control system of multi direction powder blender is responsible for regulating the speed and duration of the mixing process. It can be either manual or automatic, depending on the type and complexity of the mixer. The control system must be precise and reliable to ensure that the mixing process is consistent and repeatable.

Discharge Valve

The discharge valve is responsible for removing the mixture from the mixer once the mixing process is complete. It can be of different types, including gravity discharge, screw discharge, or air-driven discharge. The discharge valve must be designed to prevent the material from becoming trapped or stuck in the mixer.

Safety Features

Three-dimensional mixers come with various safety features to prevent accidents and injuries. These features include emergency stop buttons, safety guards, and interlocks that prevent the mixer from operating when the safety guards are not in place.

Applications of Three Dimensional Mixers

Three-dimensional blender are widely used in various industries for mixing different types of materials. Here are some of the common applications of three-dimensional mixers:

Pharmaceutical Industry

In the pharmaceutical industry, three-dimensional powder mixers are used to mix powders and granules to produce pharmaceutical tablets and capsules. Three-dimensional mixers ensure that the active ingredients are evenly distributed, resulting in consistent and high-quality products.

Food Processing Industry

In the food processing industry, three-dimensional powder blenders are used to mix dry ingredients, such as flour, sugar, and spices. Three-dimensional mixers ensure that the ingredients are mixed uniformly, resulting in consistent and high-quality products.

Chemical Industry

In the chemical industry, 3D powder mixers are used to mix various chemicals, such as fertilizers, pesticides, and pigments. Three-dimensional mixers ensure that the chemicals are mixed uniformly, resulting in consistent and high-quality products.

How do The Three Dimensional Mixer Works

Hywell machinery lab 3D powder blender consists of a mixing drum that is rotated by two arms, and one arm (the drive arm) is driven by a motor with a belt connection. The slave arm is driven to not only rotate but also move horizontally. During the three dimensional mixer operation, the products inside the drum move in random directions from the center to the end of the trough and at the same time from the top to the bottom, creating a 3D way. so that the materials will carry out the three dimensions and complex movements along the barrel body so as to realize the various movements of the materials. Through disseminating, gathering, agglomerating, and mixing to realize uniform mixing. the mixing uniform can reach 99.9%.
