3D Mixer
Mixing Equipment

1. Product Overview
The 3D mixer is a mixing equipment that makes the cylinder perform complex spatial movements such as translation, rotation, and tumbling. It consists of a base, drive system, universal joints, and mixing cylinder. Widely used for: high uniformity powder mixing in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food. Features: full-space dead-angle-free movement, short mixing time, extremely high uniformity, large loading factor.
2. Working Principle
While the driving shaft rotates the cylinder, the driven shaft makes the cylinder swing and tumble in 3D space via universal joints. The materials follow complex spatial flows, constantly changing relative positions for highly uniform mixing.
3. System Classification
By Motion Trajectory:
Swing 3D Mixer: Cylinder swings in multiple directions / Suitable for light, fragile powders
Rocking 3D Mixer: More intense tumbling / Mixing materials with large specific gravity differences
Vacuum 3D Mixer: Equipped with vacuum function / Mixing easily oxidized materials
