Internal mixer

Stamp mixer for homogeneous mixtures

Suitable solutions from basic mixing to multi-stage mixing applications

Sophisticated internal mixers for rubber processing

We have been successfully developing our machines continuously for years, with the drive to always exceed the current requirements of the industry, in particular rubber processing, and to recognize and improve existing potential.

Our internal mixers are ideal for the tire and rubber industry in particular, as they use rotating kneading tools to homogeneously mix all compound components. Intuitive operation and safety in the workplace are just as important to us as resource-saving production and efficient processes.

We distinguish between 2 basic categories of internal mixers:

Laboratory internal mixer

Industrial internal mixer

Laboratory internal mixers and industrial internal mixers are both devices for mixing and homogenizing materials. They work in a similar way by intensively mixing inherent materials in a closed chamber by means of tangential or intermeshing rotors.

While laboratory internal mixers are used to develop and optimize mixtures and test processes, industrial internal mixers are designed to implement these results in mass production.

Despite their similar functionality, they differ in some important respects:

Area of application:

➝ Laboratory interior mixer:

They are often equipped with advanced control and measurement systems to ensure precise conditions during the mixing process and to collect and optionally record data for research and development.

➝ Industrial internal mixer:

They are designed for continuous production and the mixing of large quantities of materials, whereby the parameters determined at laboratory level are scaled up.

Size and capacity:

➝ Laboratory interior mixer:

They are typically smaller and designed for R&D purposes (research and development). The capacity is in the range of 0.6 - 5 liters, which enables small batches and experiments.

➝ Industrial internal mixer:

These are designed for large-scale production and therefore have a much greater capacity. They can process several hundred kilograms per batch (see details), depending on the specific model and production requirements.

Accuracy and control options:

➝ Laboratory interior mixer:

They are often equipped with advanced control and measurement systems to ensure precise conditions during the mixing process and to collect and optionally record data for research and development.

➝ Industrial internal mixer:

Although they may also have advanced control systems, they are primarily focused on efficiency, reliability and throughput.

Flexibility:

➝ Laboratory interior mixer:

They are generally more flexible when it comes to adjusting process parameters in order to test a wide variety of materials and recipes.

➝ Industrial internal mixer:

The focus here is more on the consistency of the process in order to guarantee standardized products.
