CO-NELEMixing & Granulation
Engineered to handle green sand, resin-bonded sand, and ultra-high performance concrete mixes for major infrastructure & metallurgical deployments across Tashkent, Navoi, and Almalyk.
Under the framework of the national strategy "Uzbekistan - 2030", Central Asia’s most populous economy is undergoing unprecedented industrial re-tooling across heavy metallurgy, automotive manufacturing, and structural building material sectors.
The accelerated expansion of primary industrial zones—including the Tashkent Mechanical Plant, Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex (AGMK), Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Complex (NGMK), and automotive component manufacturing clusters in the Fergana Valley—has triggered a structural shift in foundry and concrete mixing parameters. Traditional wheel mullers and low-shear pan mixers are rapidly proving inadequate for modern production standards, which demand lower scrap rates, higher dimensional accuracy, and strict compliance with GOST and international ISO standards.
Key Insight for Uzbek Procurement Directors: Modern bentonite clay activation requires high-shear kinetic friction rather than crushing pressure. Chinese intensive sand mixers utilize variable-speed rotor technology to coat individual silica sand grains with binder film in under 90 seconds, dramatically lowering total binder additive consumption by up to 15-20%.
As a leading Chinese sand mixer manufacturer and direct factory exporter with over two decades of heavy machinery research, CO-NELE integrates vertically integrated foundry engineering—from raw steel forging and CNC machining of heavy-duty planetary gearboxes to final assembly and automated PLC control programming.
Unlike conventional horizontal wheel mullers that crush sand grains, our intensive sand mixers utilize an inclined or vertical pan configuration coupled with an eccentric high-speed rotor. The rotating pan conveys the material toward the action radius of the rotor, generating multi-directional shear forces and high micro-homogeneity. This friction movement ensures that bentonite clay, carbonaceous additives, and moisture are evenly distributed across quartz sand grains without breaking the original grain morphology.
The heart of any industrial mixer operating under harsh Central Asian conditions is its gear transmission system. CO-NELE manufactures its own proprietary planetary gear reducers in Qingdao, China. Engineered with high-torque gear alloys, forced oil lubrication systems, and dual-lip seal protection against abrasive silica dust, our drives offer a MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) exceeding 50,000 operational hours.
Silica sand processing is notoriously abrasive. To ensure prolonged service life in Uzbek production lines, our mixers feature replaceable bolt-on floor and wall liners crafted from chilled high-chrome cast iron (hardness > HRC 62) or sintered tungsten carbide coating on mixing blades, achieving operational longevity of up to 150,000 cycles before requiring standard maintenance replacement.
