CO-NELE planetary mixer: the green engine driving the production of permeable bricks in the United States
In the wave of green infrastructure in the United States, permeable bricks are becoming a star material for sustainable urban construction with their excellent rainwater management capabilities. The layered structural characteristics (fine surface layer + coarse aggregate base layer) put forward completely different technical requirements for the mixing process – the surface layer requires extremely uniform pigment and fine material mixing, and the base layer requires high-intensity mixing of large aggregates without crushing. Traditional single mixing equipment is difficult to take into account the dual standards, resulting in brick stratification, uneven strength or substandard permeability.CO-NELE innovative layering solution:
With a deep understanding of the permeable brick process, leading American manufacturers are using a combination of CMP330 and CMP1000 planetary mixers to accurately match the core needs of the surface layer and base layer respectively:
1. Surface layer concrete permeable brick mixer: CMPS330
Fine mixing expert: specially designed for the surface layer of permeable bricks, with a mixing capacity of 330L, it performs micro-level mixing of fine aggregates (0-5mm), cement, pigments and additives.
Zero color difference guarantee: Planetary three-dimensional motion trajectory ensures 360° non-dead angle dispersion of pigment particles, eliminates the common color spots and stripes of traditional mixers, and ensures the aesthetic consistency of brick surface.
Flexible protection formula: Gentle mixing mode avoids agglomeration or excessive friction of fine materials, protects the activity of additives, and maintains the permeable pore structure designed for the fabric layer.
Flexible production: Fast cleaning and formula switching functions perfectly adapt to the production needs of small batches and multi-color fabrics, and accelerate the development cycle of new products.
2. Bottom layer concrete permeable brick mixer: CMP1000
Large aggregate nemesis: Designed specifically for large-size aggregates (12-20mm) in the bottom layer, the 1000L large-capacity mixing tank is equipped with a high-torque power system to easily control low water-cement ratio and high-viscosity formulas.
Aggregate 0 crushing: The unique planetary motion trajectory makes the aggregate “suspended and tumbled” in the cement slurry instead of hard collision, and the crushing rate is stably controlled at <0.5%, ensuring the integrity of the bottom permeable channel.
Strength cornerstone: The strong vortex generated by revolution and rotation ensures that the cement slurry fully covers the coarse aggregate, and the compressive strength of the bottom layer is increased by 15-25%, far exceeding the ASTM C936 standard.
King of continuous production: Wear-resistant lining and efficient unloading design support 8 hours of continuous operation, and the daily output of a single machine can reach 800㎡ (based on 100mm thick bricks), meeting the delivery needs of large projects.
