Laboratory 5L Double Planetary Mixer | JCT Machinery

Laboratory 5L Double Planetary Mixer Features

1. Moderate Capacity: With an effective volume of 5L, it's ideal for small-batch formulation verification and process research in the laboratory.
2. Double Planetary Mixing System: Two sets of impellers, orbiting and rotating, ensure uniform mixing of materials in a short time. This is particularly suitable for high-viscosity, thixotropic or filler-containing systems.
3. Powerful Power: Equipped with a high-torque motor and variable frequency speed control, it can meet the mixing requirements of high-viscosity materials.
4. Vacuum System (optional): A vacuum system can be installed to degas during the mixing process, improving product density and performance.
5. Temperature Control System (optional): Temperature control can be achieved via a jacket or electric heating, making it suitable for experiments with heat-sensitive materials or materials requiring reactive conditions.
6. Easy Cleaning: The compact kettle and quickly removable agitator make it ideal for laboratories with frequent formula changes.

Laboratory 5L Double Planetary Mixer Structure

1. Frame

Provides overall support to ensure stable laboratory 5L double planetary mixer operation.

Made of stainless steel or carbon steel, with an optional anti-corrosion treatment.

2. Mixing cylinder

5L capacity, typically constructed of stainless steel, with a polished interior to prevent material residue.

Cylinder can be designed with a vacuum structure for vacuum degassing.

A matching jacket allows for electric heating, thermal oil heating, or cooling water cooling.

3. Mixing System

Double planetary impellers: Typically, these impellers are folding blades, claw or twisted. These two impellets rotate and revolve, covering the entire cylinder for seamless mixing.

Scrapers: As the impellers rotate, they scrape material off the cylinder walls and bottom, ensuring uniform mixing.

The clearance between the impellers and cylinder wall and bottom is small, making it suitable for high-viscosity materials.

4. Drive System

Powered by a motor and reducer, it ensures strong torque and adapts to varying material viscosities.

The agitator speed is variable frequency adjustable (typically 0-60 rpm for rotation and 0-30 rpm for orbital movement).

5. Lifting System

Electric or hydraulic lifting system facilitates loading and unloading of the mixing cylinder. Optional lifting of the cylinder or mixing system.

The cylinder is removable for easy cleaning and replacement.

6. Control System

Equipped with an electrical control cabinet to control stirring speed, lifting, heating temperature and vacuum level.
