MIXACO Double Cone Mixer

The MIXACO tumbler mixer. Faster mixing due to interchangeable containers.

The double cone mixer consists of two mobile mixing containers of the same size and the tumbling mixer. For the mixing process, the two containers are connected and can be swiveled 360 degrees.

The MIXACO tumbler mixer / double cone mixer is the ideal solution for homogenizing several mixing batches in a material-friendly manner.

Benefits at a glance. Gentle and cost-efficient homogenization.

The easy handling and the good accessibility of all machine components for cleaning make the tumbler mixer DCM an economical solution for simple mixing tasks.

  • MIXACO containers with mobile pallet available on site can be used if necessary
  • Gentle homogenization of the product
  • No active mixing tools, thus minimal energy input
  • Mix up to 2,000 liters per batch
  • Painted steel or stainless steel version
  • Free-standing double cone mixer
  • Various safety enclosures such as safety grids, safety doors or light barriers
  • Containers can be used for downstream processes – no decanting necessary
  • Higher availability of the mixer due to cleaning of the mixing container outside the mixer

Functionality. The new Double Cone Tumbler Mixer.

The double cone mixer consists of two mobile mixing vessels of equal size and the tumbling mixer. For the mixing process, an empty mixing container is moved by the operator to the tumbling mixer.

The container, which is loose on the driving pallet, is lifted to the mixing head by the pneumatic lift and securely locked there.

After swiveling the rotatable mixing head by 180°, the second mobile mixing container with the material to be mixed is lifted and locked to the mixing head in the same way.

The moving pallet remains in the mixer. By means of the PLC control, the mixing process is now started program-controlled by the operator.

After starting, both mixing vessels rotate 360° at adjustable speed around the swivel axis of the mixing head.

Due to fixed mixing segments in the mixing head, the material is optimally distributed and deflected during the tumbling motion. After the preset mixing time has elapsed, the mixing process is stopped.

After unlocking, the lower container with the mixed material can be lowered onto the driving pallet and removed from the mixer by the operator. The mixed material can be emptied via the outlet at the lower end of the mixing container.

Basic position

The loose container on the mobile pallet is lifted to the mixing head by the pneumatic lift and securely locked there. After swiveling the rotatable mixing head by 180°, the second mobile mixing container with the material to be mixed is lifted to the mixing head and locked in the same way.

Tumbling movement

After starting, both mixing vessels rotate 360° at adjustable speed around the swivel axis of the mixing head.

Cleaning position

In the cleaning position, no container is coupled to the mixing head ring. This can then be easily cleaned by the operator.

MIXACO Control Center (MCC). 360° Cloud Monitoring for MIXACO Mixers

In the web-based MIXACO Control Center (MCC), so-called “digital twins” of your machines are created, via which you can permanently evaluate all mixer parameters in real time.

By continuously monitoring the condition of your mixers, you can benefit from maximum process quality and machine availability. The connection to the MCC is optional and possible without additional sensors on the mixer, the parameters are recorded via the existing PLC control.

Control. Safe, efficient and economical.

The control of the double cone mixer is based on a Siemens S7 PLC and meets today’s requirements for safety, efficiency and economy. The development and programming of the control system from a single source ensures optimum integration of the mixer components. Alternatively, it is also possible to use Allen-Bradley components (incl. Panelview operating unit).

The control can also be designed according to UL / NEMA. In addition, the control can be equipped with an interface for data exchange to a higher-level control.

Siemens TP700

Up to 99 mixing programs, each with ten working steps, can be created in tabular form via the TP700 touch control panel. Data acquisition and storage of the measured values takes place.

Allen Bradley

Control to UL / NEMA standards with an Allen Bradley PLC and Panelview control panel is also possible.

Details. Sophisticated technology.

The double cone mixer can process batch sizes from 2,000 liters. The production capacity can thus be up to over 6,000 liters per hour. The diameter of the mixing drum is 0.3 – 3.6 m, depending on the size.

Mixing Segment

Due to the fixed mixing segment, the material is optimally deflected and swirled during tumbling. An even distribution of the materials involved in the mixing process is thus ensured.

Rotary Transmission

The rotary union ensures safe transport of the operating media (including compressed air) to the rotating mixing head.

Container Pallet

The moving pallet, which has proven itself in practice, ensures safe transport of the container from the charging station to the DCM double cone mixer or to the discharging device. At the same time, the moving pallet is used to pick up and transport the container after mixing.

Lifting Cylinder

The lifting cylinder enables the container to be lifted with pinpoint accuracy from the moving pallet to the mixing head and back again to the moving pallet.

Remote Maintenance Module

The remote maintenance module allows fast and secure access to the control system of the mixing plants via a VPN tunnel to enable fast diagnosis and repair by our service department in the event of a malfunction. Service calls on site can be avoided in this way.

Mixing Methods. Maximum Functionality.

Our double cone mixer offers best mixing quality for many products and applications. This innovative tumbler mixer delivers optimum mixing results, e.g. for PVC, powder coating, masterbatches and many more.
