For optimum mixing of products with largely varying densities and grain sizes

It is a drum mixer of Engelsmann that provides an ideal solution to the problem of a customer, where various resins have to be mixed with hardening agents. In addition to the optimum mixing results obtained this mixer can be cleaned easily. Depending on the application, the drum mixer can be delivered with various mixing tools such as T-blade, band mixing tool, plough share or Becker blade. The mixer can even be used to destroy agglomerates, if additional fork heads are mounted.
