CONSTMACH high speed Planetary concrete mixer is the best in its class. From its beginnings as an uncompromising basic design it has been continuously refined over many years, so that today’s product contains the little touches that you expect. The planetary (or countercurrent) design has one or two mixing stars that rotate themselves while also rotating around a central point, allowing each arm to cover the whole mixer floor in a number of revolutions. This powerful mixing action is both fast and thorough, results in a mixing time, after water is added, of 30 seconds or less for most types of concrete. The result is greater throughput, providing more concrete per hour for the same size plant, as well as better consistency and greater strength or, on the other hand, a saving on cement. Constmach’s planetary design is superior to turbine and twin-shaft designs for production of all types of dry-cast concrete. The reason for this is its intense mixing action, which breaks up zero-slump mix quickly. PLANETARY MIXER FEATURES: Up to 30% greater pan volume than many others rated for the same output, ensuring that it will carry the full rated load and mix it properly.Performs equally well on full and small partial batches – the ARMS do the mixing.Paddles are needed for discharge only.Large reduction gearbox and oil bath is cool running.Compare with others using small commercial gear units in tightly cramped, unventilated spaces that can only withstand intermittent duty without overheating and eventual breakdown.5 year / 10,000 hour guarantee on gearboxes.Three-armed stars have better mixing action than two-arm and last longer.
