Product overviewJCT Machinery DLH-5 is a 5 L laboratory vacuum double planetary mixer designed for mixing, dispersing and degassing materials with high viscosity and high solid content. It is suited to laboratory R&D, pilot formulations and small-batch production in chemical, pharmaceutical, materials and electronics sectors.
Structure- Mixing container: stainless steel construction, vacuum-capable, smooth interior for easy cleaning.
- Stirring paddles and revolution frame: optimized paddle geometries mounted on a planetary revolution frame to ensure full-area mixing.
- Vacuum system: integrated vacuum pump interfaces, gauges and valves to establish and maintain required vacuum levels.
- Drive system: variable-frequency motor(s) for adjustable planetary and dispersion speeds.
- Control system: modern control panel and software for precise management of time, speed, temperature and vacuum with data logging.
Model / typical tableModel | Volume (L) Full / Working | Motor power (kW) Planetary / High-speed dispersion | Mixing speed (rpm) Planetary / Low-speed autorotation / High-speed dispersion
DLH-5 | 5 / 4 | 1.1 / 1.1 | 0-60 / 0-120 / 0-1000 (1500)
Advantages- Homogeneous, bubble-free mixing by combining planetary motion with vacuum.
- Adaptable to high-viscosity and high-solid formulations.
- Precise process control for reproducible lab-scale trials.
- Suitable for small-batch R&D and pilot production.
FeaturesThe agitator rotates on its own axis while revolving around the container centre (planetary motion), eliminating dead zones. Vacuum mixing prevents air entrainment, improves density and uniformity and removes entrapped bubbles—critical for applications requiring high purity and void-free results.
Typical agitators / tools- Twist blades: effective for viscous media and enhanced heat transfer.
- Planetary mixer blades: designed for vacuum planetary operation.
- Dispersing disc: for deagglomeration and particle size reduction in suspensions and pastes.
Application areas- Chemical industry: reagents, catalysts and coatings formulation.
- Pharmaceuticals: ointments, suspensions and topical formulations.
- Electronic materials: conductive pastes, encapsulants and packaging materials.
- New materials R&D: composites, advanced formulations and laboratory trials.
