Continuos Mixing
Continuous Ploughshare® Mixers - KM Series
The Continuous Ploughshare® Mixers mixers operate on the hurling and whirling principle introduced by Loedige to mixing technology. Equipped with mixing elements, which can be adapted to individual requirement, the mixes produced in these machines are of the highest quality. The KM-Series mixer is available in a large variety of sizes ranging from the KM 150 D with throughput of around 4.5m³/h to the KM 30000 D with a throughput of as high as 1000m³/h. By introducing liquid into the drum and extending the residence time, the KM range of mixers can also be used for the micro-agglomeration of ultra fine dust, to produce a granular, dust free product with a particle size of up to 2mm.

High
Speed, Continuous Mixer - CoriMix®-S
The CoriMix®-Series mixer is a high speed, continuous mixer for large throughput quantities, designed particularly for homogeneous intermixing of liquid or pasty components into dry carrier materials. When small quantities of liquid are added, the end mix produced in this machine is without agglomerations. If large quantities of liquid are added a uniform granulated structure is obtained.Throughputs achievable with the CoriMix®-Series continuous mixers range from 0.1-0.4 t/h for the CM 20, to 15-200 t/h for the CM 100.
