R&D Lab Sigma Mixer Machine

Lodha International LLP stands as the leading manufacturer of the R&D lab Sigma mixer machine, a strong mixer designed specifically for research and development purposes. The Sigma mixer R&D model is in achieving uniform mixing, blending, and kneading of dough-like pastes and similar materials. It finds wide application in industries ranging from food processing to chemicals, resins, rubber, chocolate, bubble gum, and bakery goods. This capable mixer is particularly adept at handling highly viscous products such as chewing gum and rubber, thanks to its unique U-shaped bowl and two counter-clockwise rotating 'Z'-shaped blades.

The R&D lab Sigma mixer machine is equipped with a specially designed motor and gearbox to suit various processing requirements and product characteristics. Optional jacketing is available for cooling or heating applications, improving its capability in different manufacturing environments. Lodha International LLP, known for its expertise as an R&D lab Sigma mixer machine manufacturer, has high-quality equipment that meets the stringent demands of laboratory-scale operations. With its reliable performance and efficient mixing capabilities, the Sigma mixer is an indispensable tool for laboratories and R&D facilities looking to achieve consistent and precise results in material processing and formulation development.

Salient Features of R&D Lab Sigma Mixer Machine:

• The Sigma Mixer, also known as a Kneader, processes materials in batches
• The mixing bowl and blades are made from either regular steel or stainless steel
• All parts that touch the product have a smooth, clean finish for hygienic operation
• The blades are specially designed to thoroughly mix thick, sticky materials
• Each blade is carefully shaped to maintain a small, consistent gap between the bowl's walls
• The blades are powered by strong, durable gears
• To prevent leaks, the blade shafts are sealed using either Teflon rings or PTFE rope packing
• The machine has protective guards and safety interlocks to keep operators safe

Process Operation of R&D Lab Sigma Mixer Machine

The R&D Lab Sigma Mixer Machine discharges finished products by tilting the container, using valves at the bottom, or with an extrusion screw beside the container. Its mixing action combines bulk movement, stretching, folding, dividing, and recombining materials. The shearing and tearing action from the blades and shell reduces the size of solid dough. After sterilizing the batch, the heating circuit shuts off, the pneumatic damper opens, and the cooling operation begins.

In the tangential design, the blades rotate in the trough and meet tangentially, with the front blade generally rotating faster than the rear in a 3:2 ratio. This design is suitable for materials with higher viscosities like adhesives, rubber compounds, dyes, and pigments. The overlapping design has blades that overlap above the saddle of the container, mixing materials that flow freely or creep down into the blades. Both blades rotate at the same speed, making this design ideal for lighter viscosities like carbon pastes, clay coatings, creams, and ointments.
