Refractory batching production line and 500kg refractory mixer

Specific Applications of the CO-NELE CMP500 Planetary Mixer in Refractory Production

As a medium-sized equipment with a 500kg batch capacity, the CMP500 planetary mixer has broad application prospects in the refractory industry. It can meet the mixing needs of a variety of refractory materials:

The CMP500 is suitable for mixing a variety of refractory materials, including alumina-carbon, corundum, and zirconia. It provides uniform mixing for the production of ladle linings, tundish linings, sliding nozzle refractory materials, long nozzle bricks, submerged nozzle bricks, and integral stopper rods.

The 500L planetary refractory mixer can flexibly adapt to refractory materials with varying process requirements. For example, the production of breathable nozzle bricks requires uniform particle size and the addition of a portion of ultrafine powder (<10μm), placing high demands on the mixing equipment for uniformity and shear control. The CMP500′s planetary mixing principle precisely controls shear force, ensuring uniform dispersion of the ultrafine powder without disruption.

Furthermore, the design of the planetary refractory mixer takes into account the unique requirements of refractory production. The equipment features a highly sealed design, eliminating slurry leakage, which is crucial for maintaining accurate refractory mix proportions. Furthermore, the discharge door can be opened and closed using pneumatic or hydraulic methods, depending on customer needs. The door’s support structure and strength have been effectively reinforced to meet industry operating conditions.

CO-NELE CMP500 Planetary Mixer: A Core Breakthrough in Mixing Technology

As the core equipment of the entire production line, the CO-NELE CMP500 planetary mixer demonstrates exceptional mixing performance:

Unique planetary mixing principle: This equipment utilizes a combination of rotation and revolution. The mixing blades move in a planetary motion within the drum, achieving multi-directional mixing in three dimensions, completely eliminating the dead zones that plague traditional mixers.

Excellent mixing performance: The CMP500 mixer can handle aggregates of various specific gravities and particle sizes, preventing segregation during mixing. This ensures uniform distribution of refractory components and significantly improves product quality.

Technical Advantages: This machine boasts a discharge capacity of 500L, a feed capacity of 750L, and a rated mixing power of 18.5kW, making it suitable for medium-sized batch production of refractory materials. The equipment utilizes a hardened reducer and parallelogram blade design, ensuring durability and 180° rotatable, reusable blades, significantly reducing maintenance costs.

Automated Production Line Integration: Seamless Integration Improves Overall Efficiency

The automatic batching system seamlessly integrates with the CMP500 mixer through an intelligent control system. After the batching system accurately batches the materials, the materials are automatically transported to the mixer, eliminating the need for manual intervention and significantly reducing the risk of material exposure and cross-contamination.

The production line specifically addresses the unique characteristics of refractory production, with customized production process parameters tailored to different refractory materials (such as alumina, corundum, and zirconia) to ensure optimal mixing for each product.
