GCPM Hydraulic discharging concrete planetary mixer, often referred to as a vertical shaft concrete mixer with hydraulic discharging door, derives its name from the unique and efficient stirring mechanism it employs. The term "planetary" in its title is reflective of the stirring principle that closely mimics the motion of celestial bodies in our solar system. bt
In a concrete planetary mixer, the stirring device not only rotates on its own axis but also revolves around a central point, much like the planets orbit the sun. This dual motion creates a comprehensive mixing action that ensures every component of the mix is thoroughly combined. The stirring blades or arms rotate in one direction while simultaneously orbiting around the central axis of the drum, leading to a highly effective and homogeneous blend.
The method of unloading concrete from a mixer can typically be executed through either pneumatic or hydraulic systems, with the choice between the two often determined by the size and capacity of the mixer.
Pneumatic discharging is usually the standard configuration for mixers with a capacity of 0.75 cubic meters or less. This system utilizes compressed air to force the concrete out of the drum. Pneumatic unloading is favored for its simplicity, lower cost, and suitability for smaller-scale operations where the volumes of concrete being handled are not excessively large.
Hydraulic discharging, on the other hand, is commonly employed in larger mixers, typically those with a capacity of 1 cubic meter and above. This method uses hydraulic pressure to operate the discharge door(s), which is more powerful and reliable for managing heavier loads of concrete. Hydraulic systems are often more robust and can handle the increased weight and volume associated with larger mixers.
Regarding the number of discharge doors, a single door is generally sufficient for most applications, facilitating the controlled release of the mixed concrete. However, if a customer has specific requirements for multiple discharge points, perhaps for simultaneous pouring into different locations or for quicker unloading, custom configurations can be provided. The additional discharge doors can be incorporated into the design to meet these unique operational needs.
When considering the discharging method and door configuration, factors such as the site layout, the scale of the project, and the operational efficiency required should be taken into account. The manufacturer can provide guidance on the best configuration to suit the particular demands of the customer's application, ensuring that the unloading process is as efficient and effective as possible.
