Hayes & Stolz - Twin Shaft Mixers
The Single Shaft Horizontal Batch Mixer is a robust piece of equipment designed for efficient mixing of dry powders, granules, slurries, and some pastes. The mixer features a U-shaped body and a primary horizontal shaft equipped with ribbons and paddles for thorough agitation. Developed since the early 1950s, Hayes & Stolz has continually improved this technology, gaining a reputation for reliable mixing solutions. This mixer achieves homogenous results with a Coefficient of Variation (Cv) of less than 10 in under two minutes for most products. Hayes & Stolz remains a leader in mixer technology, credited with numerous innovations that enhance mixing quality and efficiency.
The Hayes & Stolz Twin Shaft “Counterpoise” Horizontal Batch Mixers is yet another advancement in mixing technology. “Counterpoise” by definition is the result of equal power or forces acting in opposition; a state of balance. This is what the counter-rotating twin shafts provide: a unique, smooth, continual, multi-directional flow of particles in the mixing zone. The result is a quick, gentle mixing that is unsurpassed in mixing efficiency.
The unique blending action that takes place with the counter rotating ribbons or paddles insures repeatability from batch to batch even if disparities in particle size exist. Stratification and separation of different ingredients is eliminated during the mixing process in the Twin Shaft mixer.
The rapid mixing time, as well as the gentle handling characteristics associated with the twin shaft design, minimizes product degradation. These qualities also give the Twin Shaft mixer unique coating capabilities on a wide range of products. Twin shaft mixers are proven to be effective for mixing dry powders, granules, slurries and some pastes.
Homogenous mixing, measured as Coefficient of Variation (Cv) of less than 10, can be achieved in as little as 15 seconds to one minute for most products in Hayes & Stolz Horizontal “Counterpoise” ‘TR’ (Twin Ribbon) and “TP’ (Twin Paddle) Mixers.
