The Plough Shear Mixer (also known as a plough mixer or ploughshare mixer) is a mixing device that consists of a cylindrical drum with mixing pieces in the shape of ploughs positioned on a horizontal shaft. Plough Shear Mixer is made for vigorous blending of both dry and liquid ingredients. It produces an action of mechanical fluidized bed mixing.

What is a Plough mixer?

A plough mixer is a plough type mixer with short cylindrical aspect ratio mixing chambers that operates at high shear and speed. These horizontal Gardner batch mixers feature a high-shear plough agitator, which gives the ingredients a high-energy mixing action. They are typically used for powders, granules, and pastes.

This mixer has paddles or ploughs attached to a revolving shaft, which results in an extremely vigorous mixing action. In order to improve the goods and ensure a proper homogenization in the shortest period of time, they are moulded and directed in accordance with the nature of the products to mix.

What is the use of Plough shear mixer?

Plough shear mixers are frequently used in the mixing of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, feedstuffs, pigments, and especially in the mixing of fragile solid grains. These mixtures also have a stronger mixing effect for the ingredients since they have a wide range of grain and density.

The manufacture and processing of granular, dusty, and paste-like materials is particularly suited for the plough shear mixer. It distinguishes itself with its careful and protective blending procedures. The same procedures can be repeated, especially in big quantities, because to the excellent material circulation.

The plough shear mixer can handle both straightforward and intricate mixing tasks. A horizontal, cylindrical drum unit attached to the agitator shaft houses the rotating agitator blades. The mixture then develops turbulence, which continuously includes all of the product particles into the mixing process. Ploughs fitted on shaft have overlapping with each other, such that there is no dead zone for material mixing. Dead patches or areas of slow motion are avoided as a result. To achieve the best mixing results and process safety, this horizontal single shaft bulk mixer can also be fitted with cutting rotors, cooling, and heating units.
