Model RCM36X9SS Munson Machinery’s newest rotary continuous mixer can blend liquids and dry bulk solids, including regrind, plastic pellets, expanded PS ingredients and thermoplastic additives. The stainless-steel mixer has a stationary inlet and outlet, and proprietary mixing flights. Its 3-horsepower electric motor rotates a drum featuring smooth interior surfaces at 8 to 10 rpm. A weir at the discharge end of the drum creates a buildup of blended material that overflows the weir and discharges from the mixer. A reversing discharge weir is available to fully evacuate material at the end of production runs, and stainless-steel piping is optional.
What’s new? The model, which hit the market several months ago.
Benefits Dust-free, homogeneous mixing. The machine employs a gentle tumbling action to mix evenly and with little degradation. And, unlike mixers with agitators that are forced through stationary material, the mixer has no internal moving parts and lower power requirements.
