The CR.MIX mobile mixing container expands the proven and standardized container product range of the southern German manufacturer. The special geometry of the mixing screw allows fast and homogenous mixing of free-flowing plastic granulate or regrind. In addition, the high-quality components on the stainless steel container ensure a long lifetime.
The mixing container can be used wherever small to medium quantities of bulk material need to be mixed. The container is filled as standard via the hinged area of the cover. An inlaid grid is installed there to support bagged goods. To start the mixing process, the hinged cover must be closed and the start button pressed. The mixing process stops by pressing the stop button or automatically after an adjustable mixing time. The rollable container can then be moved to the place of use (e.g. injection molding machine).
The main added value lies in the special geometry of the mixing screw, which ensures optimum mixing results without an additional outer tube. This offers the advantage that the interior and the mixing screw are very easy to clean. "We've invested a lot of development work in the mixing screw and its mixing properties," says Managing Director Gerd Maass. The remaining structure of the round container is based on Achberg's well-known CR.B... roller container series.
Because of the steep hopper and the round container geometry, an optimum material flow is ensured. This means that the ready-mixed bulk material can be almost completely extracted at the lowest point of the hopper using up to two special suction pipes. A sensor-monitored swivel slide is attached to the bottom of the outlet for complete emptying. This, as well as the safety interlock of the hinged cover, is monitored by the control unit, which is mounted on the stainless steel cover of the container. The mixing container is supplied with power via a standard 16 A CEE connection, which is also mounted on the round cover.
