When should I choose a planetary counter-current mixer instead of a twin shaft mixer?

Choose a vertical-shaft planetary counter-current mixer when the mix is dry, fibre-reinforced, pigmented or ultra-high performance: UHPC, GFRC, refractory castables, dry-cast paving blocks and precast elements requiring homogeneity below 5% coefficient of variation. A twin shaft mixer is the more economical choice for high-throughput ready-mix and wet concrete above 2 m³ per batch, where cycle times of 30-45 seconds matter more than micro-homogeneity.

How long does a CO-NELE mixing pan liner and blade set last?

With standard high-chrome wear parts, liners and mixing arms typically run 90,000-150,000 batches on normal concrete and 40,000-60,000 batches on abrasive mixes such as refractory castables or quartz-rich UHPC. All wear parts are bolt-on and replaceable in the field, and CO-NELE keeps interchangeable spares for every model produced since 2004.

Can CO-NELE run a trial with my own raw material before I place an order?

Yes. Our laboratory in Qingdao operates lab-scale intensive mixers and granulators from 5 to 75 litres. Send 10-20 kg of your powder or aggregate with the target particle size, moisture and capacity, and our process engineers return a test report with granule sphericity, bulk density, mixing time and the recommended production model.

What voltage, documentation and after-sales support do export buyers receive?

Machines are built to the buyer's local supply (220V/380V/415V/440V, 50 or 60 Hz), supplied with CE-compliant electrical design on request, foundation and wiring drawings, an English operation and maintenance manual, and a 12-month warranty on the drive unit. Installation guidance is delivered by video commissioning or by resident engineers; spare parts ship from stock in Qingdao.

Intensive Mixer Mixing Principle

CO-NELE CR intensive mixer applies counter-current mixing principle which provides optimal homogeneous mixture in shortest time.

The eccentrically assembled multi-level high speed mixing tools rotating in clockwise direction provides high intensity mixing.

The inclined arranged rotating mixing pan in anti-clockwise tumbles the material, provides mixing effect in vertical and horizontal and bring the materials to high speed mixing tools.

The multi-purpose functional tool deflects the materials, prevent materials from sticking to the mixing pan bottom and wall and help to discharge.

The rotating speed of mixing tools and mixing pan could both run at various speeds for specific mixing process, in the same process or different batches.

Function of Intensive Mixer

The multi-functional mixing system can be used for many different applications, e.g. for mixing, granulating, coating, kneading, dispersing, dissolving, defibering and many more.

Advantages of the Mixing System

The advantages for the mixed product:

Higher Tool Speeds

Can be used for example to:

Optimally solubilize fibers
Completely pulverize pigments
Optimize mixing of fine fractions
Manufacture suspensions with a high solid content

Medium Tool Speeds

Are used to:

Achieve mixtures with a high mixture quality

Lower Tool Speeds

At lower speeds:

Lightweight additives or foams can be gently added to the mixture

Mixer Batchwise

In contrast to other mixing systems, the throughput rate and mixing intensity of CO-NELE CR intensive batch mixers can be adjusted independently of each other.

The mixing tool can run at variable speeds from fast to slow
This allows the power input into the mixture to be adapted to the specific mix
Hybrid mixing processes are made possible e.g. slow–fast–slow

Higher Tool Speeds

Can be used for example to:

Optimally solubilize fibers
Completely pulverize pigments, optimize mixing of fine fractions
Manufacture suspensions with a high solid content

Medium Tool Speeds

Medium tool speeds are used to achieve mixtures with a high mixture quality

Low Tool Speeds

At low tool speeds, lightweight additives or foams can be gently added to the mixture

The mixer mixes without separating the mixture; 100% material agitation during each revolution of the mixing pan. Eirich intensive batch mixers are available in two series with a usable volume ranging from 1 to 12,000 liters.
