Custom Milling & Consulting, Inc. Planetary Mixers

CMC/Inoue Double Planetary Mixers are the ideal choice for the mixing and kneading of viscous pastes or for gently blending shear sensitive formulations or for drying and granulating powders. A slow-speed, high-torque approach to material handling, the Double Planetary Mixer offers the capability to address a wide variety of applications and viscosities. Available in laboratory, pilot, and productions sizes. The CMC/Inoue Double Planetary Mixer is constructed with a pair of open frame type blades (gate style). Each blade rotates on its own axis while simultaneously orbiting around the mixing vessel. The precisely designed clearance between the blades and between the blade and the mix tank’s inner walls provides a strong shearing force, resulting in superior mixing, kneading, and dispersion. Various blade configurations ensure the best performance on the mixing process. Mixed materials can be discharged from the mixing tank by means of a Ram Press, which uses a close-clearance, sealed follower plate technology on a double acting hydraulic piston to press the materials from the tank. Application: Thick Film Inks, Conductive sealants, Potting & Encapsulation Products, Dental Pastes, Composite Materials.
