Gangben Dual-Planetary Mixer: An Innovative Choice for Industrial Blending

Introduction

In industrial production, mixers are key equipment. The dual-planetary mixer developed by Gangben Manufacturer has become a new benchmark in the industry with its innovative design, effectively making up for the shortcomings of traditional mixers.

Structural Differences

Traditional mixers mostly adopt single-shaft or double-shaft structures, with simple blade designs. They tend to have dead zones during mixing and struggle to fully blend complex materials. In contrast, Gangben's dual-planetary mixer is equipped with two mixing paddles mounted on planetary arms. These paddles not only revolve around the central axis but also rotate on their own axes, enabling multi-directional mixing. This eliminates dead zones and significantly improves mixing efficiency and quality.

Superior Mixing Efficiency

When handling high-viscosity materials (e.g., high-viscosity polymers), traditional mixers take about 30 minutes to complete mixing, with a uniformity coefficient of variation (CV) value only up to ≤5%. Gangben's dual-planetary mixer, however, finishes the same task in just 10-15 minutes, achieving a CV value as low as ≤3%. This ensures stable product quality—for instance, enhancing the bonding strength of high-performance adhesives.

Shear Force Control and Material Adaptability

For shear-sensitive materials (such as active ingredients in biopharmaceuticals), Gangben's dual-planetary mixer can precisely adjust the speed and angle of the mixing paddles to avoid material damage. Traditional mixers, with their narrow shear force adjustment range, are prone to problems. Additionally, Gangben's mixer can handle low-viscosity liquids, high-viscosity pastes, and solid-liquid mixtures, meeting the needs of industries like food and chemical engineering.

Temperature Control and Vacuum Performance

Gangben's dual-planetary mixer features a jacket system with a temperature control accuracy of ±0.5℃, far exceeding the ±1-2℃ of traditional mixers—this meets the temperature control requirements of industries such as pharmaceuticals. Its vacuum system prevents oxidation-prone materials (e.g., lithium battery cathode materials) from deteriorating, ensuring product quality.

Intelligence and Operation

Equipped with a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and a touchscreen, the mixer allows operators to easily set parameters like rotation speed, temperature, and time, while the PLC system controls the process precisely. It also has a built-in fault diagnosis and alarm function for timely issue detection. In contrast, traditional mixers have low intelligence and are inconvenient to operate and maintain.

Applications and Conclusion

In the new energy lithium battery industry, it improves battery energy density and lifespan; in the pharmaceutical industry, it complies with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards and reduces product defect rates. In summary, Gangben's dual-planetary mixer has distinct advantages and is an ideal choice for enterprises with high-end needs (e.g., new energy and pharmaceuticals). For small enterprises with simple needs and limited budgets, traditional mixers can still meet basic production requirements. In the future, its technology will continue to upgrade, contributing to industrial development.
