Challenger Cross Action Paddle Agitators lift and scoop materials
in a figure 8 motion within the blender. Friable materials are thoroughly
blended with minimal degradation. Scoop style blades are fabricated to
match the contour of the trough. The blades are permanently welded to
the spokes of the agitator with large fillet areas for ease of cleaning.
Clearances between the paddles and trough are held to within .020
to ensure efficient clean-out of materials between batches. Paddle style
agitators can be used with batch sizes down to 20% of maximum capacity
without loss of mixing efficiency.
Paddle blades scoop, lift and tumble materials in a gentle thorough mixing
action. Paddle blades overlap to heighten and speed mixing.Paddle mixers
work effectively when filled to as little as 20% of rated capacity and
are excellent for thoroughly mixing extremely small quantities of critical
ingredients.
Lowe paddle type mixers are excellent for mixing in fragile ingredients
such as nuts, fiber glass strands, crystals and hollow glass spheres without
degradation. Materials with dissimilar particle size and densities are
mixed thoroughly, usually within 3 to 5 minutes.
Paddle mixers can be used for materials as light as shredded polyester,
to as heavy as powdered metals. Dry blends, viscous fluids, and highly
filled semi-solids are within their range of capabilities.
Paddle blade clearances of approximately .020" from the bottom of
the trough assues a nearly 100% discharge. Blades angled toward the discharge
perform the job quickly.
