The Planetary Countercurrent Concrete Mixer, also known as vertical‑shaft counter‑current pan mixer or intensive planetary mixer, is a high‑performance batch mixing machine engineered to produce micro‑homogeneous mixtures for high‑grade concrete and hard‑to‑blend industrial powders. With unique counter‑current planetary motion, CO‑NELE vertical planetary mixer eliminates mixing dead zones, cuts mixing cycle time and delivers consistent batch‑to‑batch quality for precast components, UHPC, refractory materials, ceramics and lithium‑ion raw‑material blending.
Different from conventional single‑direction planetary mixers, our planetary countercurrent concrete mixer adopts a counter‑current gearing system. Each mixing star carries out compound movement: revolving around the central main shaft while rotating on its own axis in the opposite direction of revolution.
The reverse rotation generates strong convective‑shear turbulence inside the pan. Materials move multi‑directionally across all mixing zones, so aggregates, cement, fibers, fine powders and additives collide, knead and blend thoroughly in a short cycle without leaving unmixed corners at the pan bottom or side walls.
CO‑NELE planetary countercurrent concrete mixer is far more than concrete mixing equipment. It covers multi‑industry batch‑mixing requirements:

| CMPS 50 | 50 | 75 | 120 | 3 | Pneumatic/Hydraulic (Optional) | 1/2 | 700 | 950×790×1200 |
| CMPS 100 | 100 | 150 | 240 | 5.5 | Pneumatic/Hydraulic (Optional) | 1/2 | 1100 | 1670×1460×1450 |
| CMPS 250 | 250 | 375 | 600 | 11 | Pneumatic/Hydraulic (Optional) | 1/2 | 1500 | 1860×1650×1780 |
| CMPS 500 | 500 | 750 | 1200 | 18.5 | Pneumatic/Hydraulic (Optional) | 1/2 | 2400 | 2230×2080×1880 |

With years of experience manufacturing heavy‑duty intensive mixing equipment, CO‑NELE delivers robust counter‑current planetary mixers optimized for harsh continuous‑batch production.
Our machines have been exported to dozens of countries for precast factories, refractory plants, ceramic and new‑energy material production lines. Every planetary countercurrent concrete mixer undergoes strict factory testing before shipment. We provide complete after‑sales support, spare‑part supply and on‑site technical guidance for overseas projects.
It is a vertical pan‑type intensive mixer where mixing arms rotate opposite to their revolution direction, creating counter‑current convection mixing flow to achieve ultra‑high material homogeneity.
Absolutely yes. Counter‑current planetary mixing provides gentle‑yet‑powerful blending, evenly distributes steel‑fiber or polypropylene‑fiber without fiber‑balling. It is the preferred mixer for UHPC precast production.
Yes, many refractory manufacturers select this intensive planetary mixer for unshaped castables due to its dead‑zone‑free mixing performance and wear‑resistant pan liner.
The mixing blades and pan liners are constructed from high-chromium hard alloy cast iron, ensuring extreme durability and exceptionally long service life when handling highly abrasive raw materials.
By driving the mixing stars to rotate on their own axes in the opposite direction of their central revolution, intense shear turbulence is created, achieving full homogenization 15% to 20% faster than standard planetary mixers.
