DESCRIPTION »

Reynolds Dual Shaft mixer is a powerful, efficient, and versatile mixer that combines a low speed helical blade agitator with a saw-tooth high speed disperser to provide optimum batch turnover in manufacturing of high viscosity products. The helical blade design with a close tolerance gap eliminates hot or cold spots in temperature controlled processes. The helical blade attached with scrapers supports improving heat transfer across jacketed vessel side wall and vessel bottom wall.

Viscous finished product that is too slow to discharge by gravity or/and support with helical blade is usually pressed out of the vessel by a platen-style Reynolds Press-Out Station System which includes a rapid advanced feature with fast and slow platen movement. This technique allows for fast and efficient product discharge transfer with minimal waste and clean-up
