500-liter Inclined Intensive Mixer in Brazilian Magnesia Refractory Brick Production

How did con-nele’s core product, the CR15 inclined high-intensive mixer , a high-performance refractory mixing equipment, successfully help a leading Brazilian refractory manufacturer improve the quality, production efficiency, and market competitiveness of its magnesia refractory bricks? It also provided a reference for selecting high-quality refractory mixing equipment for the global refractory industry.

Client Background and Industry Challenges

Our client is a well-known Brazilian company specializing in the production of high-performance refractory materials. Its magnesia refractory bricks are widely used in high-temperature industries such as steel and cement in the South American market. During production, the client’s existing refractory mixer faced the following key challenges:

• Insufficient mixing uniformity: Uniform dispersion of materials such as magnesia and binder is crucial to the performance of refractory bricks. Conventional refractory mixing equipment struggles to eliminate clumping and dead spots, resulting in fluctuating product performance.
• Difficulty handling viscous materials: Magnesium materials tend to form viscous clumps during mixing. Conventional refractory mixing equipment produces incomplete discharge, resulting in excessive residue, and causing batch contamination and material waste.
• Production Efficiency Bottlenecks: Long mixing cycles and time-consuming cleaning and maintenance limit capacity expansion and prevent the company from meeting growing market demand.

Professional Solution: CR15 Inclined intensive Mixer

To address these customer challenges, we offer a professional refractory mixing solution: the CR15 Inclined intensive Mixer. This powerful mixer is specifically designed for processing refractory materials with high specific gravity and high uniformity requirements.

Core Advantages: How They Solve Customer Problems:

• Excellent Mixing Uniformity: This inclined powerful mixer utilizes a unique “swirl+vortex” dual mixing mechanism to instantly break up magnesia agglomerates and achieve a microscopically uniform distribution of binder and material, making it an ideal mixer for producing high-performance magnesia refractory bricks.
• Complete Discharge, No Residue: The mixing pot can be tilted at a large angle, leveraging gravity to quickly and thoroughly discharge viscous slurry. This feature completely eliminates the residue problem associated with traditional refractory mixers, ensuring batch purity and cleanliness.
• High Efficiency and Energy Saving, Increased Productivity: As a highly efficient refractory mixing equipment, the CR15 significantly shortens mixing time, increases unit production capacity, and reduces energy consumption per ton of product, creating significant economic benefits for customers.
• Durable and Easy to Maintain: Designed for the high-wear conditions of the refractory industry, the equipment offers high reliability and a long service life, significantly reducing long-term operating costs.

Application Results and Customer Value

This mixer, specifically designed for magnesia refractory bricks, has brought transformative changes to customers since its commissioning:

• Upgraded Product Quality: Mixing uniformity is significantly improved, resulting in a denser magnesia brick structure, excellent performance consistency, and significantly increased high-temperature strength.
• Doubled Production Efficiency: As a highly efficient refractory mixing equipment, its rapid mixing and discharging processes increase overall production line capacity by approximately 25%.
• Reduced Overall Costs: Reduced energy consumption, material waste, and maintenance costs result in a significant long-term return on investment.

For global refractory manufacturers seeking technological upgrades, this refractory mixing equipment is a reliable choice for improving quality, reducing costs, and increasing efficiency, whether producing magnesia, alumina, or carbon composite refractories.
