Challenger™ Cross Action Paddle Agitators

 

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.
