Planetary Concrete Mixer is Known for Its High Efficiency

A concrete mixer, also commonly referred to as the cement mixer is a machine that combines cement, aggregate and water homogenously to form concrete. If you have a project that requires the use of a concrete mixer, there are a number of factors that must be put into consideration. These include the location of the project site, the amount of total concrete required for the project, the construction schedule as well as the cost of concrete mixer.

The planetary mixer concrete belongs to a group of cement mixers called the compulsory type concrete mixer. This mixer mixes concrete through the rotation of a shaft with the blades attached to the shaft acting like hands that mix the cement aggregate and water uniformly.
The Planetary concrete mixer has a high-speed revolution and rotation of the blades which increases the output of cement per hour dramatically while ensuring that the material inside do not segregate even though they are made up of different grain sizes and weight. You can hear and feel the smooth and continuous of motion of the material while it is being mixed inside the planetary concrete mixer.

The planetary concrete mixer features one vertical mixing shaft as compared to the twin shaft mixers which are also a forced type mixer with two horizontal shafts. Therefore, it is also called vertical shaft concrete mixer.
Due to its unique operating principles, the planetary concrete mixer is known for its high efficiency and production of the highest quality cement. It also has a steady driving capacity due to the hard surface gearbox that is used to move the shaft. The planetary concrete mixer has its transmission system in at the top of the mixing drum which means it is very easy to maintain since this is totally disconnected from the concrete. Other cement mixers are known to leak and reduce performance greatly.
