Product Description
Drum Mixers:
Description:
The Lubi LDM series portable drum mixers and tank mixers have been designed, engineered and built to provide long life and trouble-free service in a wide variety of blending/mixing operations.
Lubi drum mixers can be mounted by either screwing into the bung opening or by mounting on the drum lip. Tank mixers can be mounted by clamping to the tank or container wall. Angle of entry may be adjusted to meet specific mixing requirements.
These are lightweight, handy and extremely powerful devices suitable for different industrial applications like waste treatment, water treatment and batch chemical preparation.
These are also ideal for mixing paints, varnishes, polymers, textile dyes, pharmaceuticals, soaps and countless other materials from 1 to over 1000 cps viscosity.
Applications:
LDMB mixers are design to provide service for a variety of mixing applications.
These drum mixers are suitable for mixing/blending low viscosity fluids & suspending or dissolving low concentrations of solids in water or water like liquids including light oils and
syrups.
Features:
High quality components, Light weight, portable, Easy to install, user friendly operation, Cost effective mixing, Few parts maintenance friendly, Long lasting.
Adaptable Drum Mounting OptionsDrum mixers offer flexible mounting solutions, including clamp mount, rim mount, and bung mount designs. These adaptable features ensure compatibility with various drum types and allow users to securely attach the mixer to standard 200-liter drums for safe and stable operation during the blending process.
Powerful Mixing PerformanceEquipped with energy-efficient electric motors ranging from 0.5 HP to 2 HP, these mixers utilize either radial or axial flow impeller types to achieve effective liquid agitation. The design supports flow rates between 150 and 500 LPH, enabling thorough mixing and blending of chemicals, paints, or food ingredients in tanks and drums.
Corrosion Resistance for Long-Term UseThe corrosion-resistant finish on both mild steel and stainless steel variants protects the drum mixers from harsh chemicals and environmental wear, significantly extending their lifespan. Standard accessories, including lifting handles and safety guards, enhance user safety and operational convenience in demanding industrial settings.
FAQs of Drum Mixers:
Q: How do I select the appropriate mounting type for my drum mixer?
A: Choose the mounting typeclamp, rim, or bung mountbased on your drums design and the required stability during mixing. Clamp and rim mounts are ideal for open drums, while bung mounts fit securely into drum openings, providing versatile attachment for 200-liter drums.
Q: What are the advantages of variable speed control in drum mixers?
A: Variable speed control enables you to adjust the mixers RPM between 40 and 100, optimizing mixing intensity for different fluid viscosities and process requirements. This feature improves blending efficiency and helps prevent over-mixing or splashing, ensuring consistent results.
Q: When should I use a radial or axial flow impeller in my drum mixer?
A: Radial flow impellers are best for high-shear mixing of viscous liquids and solids suspension, whereas axial flow impellers provide gentle circulation suitable for low-viscosity liquids. The impeller choice depends on your applications specific mixing theory and fluid dynamics needs.
Q: Where can drum mixers be used most effectively?
A: Drum mixers are ideally suited for industrial environments in India, including chemical processing, food production, paint manufacturing, and water treatment plants. Their portability and compatibility with 200-liter drums make them versatile for both on-site and batch mixing.
Q: What is the recommended process for operating the mixer safely?
A: Always secure the mixer using the appropriate mounting option, confirm the power supply matches 220V or 415V AC, and use the standard lifting handle and safety guard. Begin mixing at a low speed and gradually increase as needed while maintaining noise levels under 70 dB.
Q: How does the corrosion-resistant coating benefit drum mixer users?
A: The corrosion-resistant coating protects structural components from chemical exposure, moisture, and abrasion, ensuring prolonged operational life and reducing maintenance costs in demanding industrial conditions.
Q: What is the maximum flow rate and speed achievable with these drum mixers?
A: These drum mixers can achieve flow rates between 150 to 500 liters per hour and operate at speeds anywhere from 40 to 100 RPM, providing efficient mixing performance for a wide range of liquid blending tasks.
