Explanation of the volume of the internal mixing mill

September 07,2022

The total volume of the internal mixer is the closed area composed of the internal mixing chamber, the upper/top ram piston and the end plates on both sides of the rotor, minus the net volume left by the two rotors, as shown in the white part of the inverted 8 in the figure. Roughly,  it is like the volume of water can be poured in under working conditions.

     

 

    What we usually say, such as 110L, 270L internal mixer, refers to the total volume. Because the material has to flow, it cannot be 100% filled. Therefore, the actual total working volume of rubber mixing is small.

The concept of filling factor needs to be introduced here. The size of the filling factor is related to the rotor type, formula, process parameters, etc., and cannot be generalized! Generally, the tangent rotor is taken as 0.75, and the intermesh rotor is taken as 0.65  generally.

     Qingdao Difutai Rubber Machine Co.,Ltd. (DFTMC) provides you with various kinds of Used/second hand rubber machinery, currently DFTMC can provide you with 320L, 270L, 160L, 110L, 90L, 75L, etc. internal mixing mills from Kobleco,HF, YIYANG, POMINIO, etc..

The rubber machinery industry continues the bull market

In the first half of 2022, China's rubber machinery industry continued the structural bull market in 2020 and 2021. In the first half of the year, the sales revenue of China's rubber machinery increased by 5.1%, the export delivery value increased by nearly 65%, and the profit index improved significantly. Most companies in the industry had sufficient orders in the first half of the year, and the operating rate was relatively high, and the orders in the second half of the year were basically scheduled to the end of the year. It is expected that the rubber machinery industry will continue to be bullish in 2022 as a high probability event.
