Industrial mixer machine with control panel

Vertical Mixing Dryer for Plastic Granules

Our Vertical Mixing Dryer offers a high-efficiency solution for blending and drying plastic raw materials. Utilizing rotating spiral blades, it achieves rapid, uniform mixing and is an essential auxiliary machine for extruders, injection molding, and granulation lines. Its secure, sealed mixing process and automated controls ensure reliable performance and superior results.

Key Advantages

  • Simultaneous Mixing & Drying

    Combines material blending and hot air drying in one efficient cycle, saving time, energy, and floor space.

  • Superior Uniformity

    The spiral lifting and centrifugal dispersion process ensures materials are mixed thoroughly and dried evenly without clumping.

  • Durable Stainless Steel

    The mixing barrel and blades are constructed from high-quality stainless steel for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning.

  • Automated Operation

    Equipped with a PID intelligent temperature controller and a timer for precise, automated control over mixing and drying duration.

  • User-Friendly Design

    Features a low feed port to reduce labor intensity, an observation window, and casters for easy mobility.

  • Enhanced Safety

    Multiple safety protection devices, including an interlock system, ensure the complete safety of the operator during use.

Working Principle

Our Vertical Mixing Dryer uses a dual-action process of mechanical mixing and thermal drying to efficiently prepare plastic granules.

  • Spiral Lifting & Mixing

    Raw materials are lifted from the bottom by a high-speed rotating screw. At the top, centrifugal force scatters the material, creating a continuous cycle that ensures rapid and uniform blending.

  • Concurrent Hot Air Drying

    Simultaneously, a blower sends heated air into the barrel. This hot air penetrates the constantly moving material, efficiently removing moisture and completing the drying and mixing process in a single step.

Technical Features

  • Insulated Barrel Design

    Features a dual-layer barrel with an insulation layer to minimize heat loss and improve drying efficiency.

  • Energy Efficient

    Low power consumption motor and an efficient heating system reduce operational costs and energy loss.

  • Robust Construction

    The barrel cover and base are formed through stamping for enhanced durability, supported by a heavy-duty steel frame.

  • Low-Noise Operation

    Powered by a cycloidal pinwheel reducer motor, ensuring quiet and durable performance.

  • Compact & Mobile

    The four-wheel vertical design provides a small footprint and makes the machine easy to move and position.

  • Convenient Discharge

    Equipped with a manual valve at the discharge port for simple and controlled unloading of materials.

Operation & Maintenance

  • Ensure mixing blades are secure and properly lubricated.
  • Check the barrel for any foreign objects before starting.
  • Verify that the power supply voltage matches the machine's requirements.
  • Perform a brief no-load test run to confirm the blade rotation direction is correct.

First, ensure the machine is stable. After starting, allow it to run empty for 2-5 minutes. For mixing and drying, set the desired time on the timer and the temperature on the controller. The machine will run and stop automatically based on your settings. To stop manually, use the OFF button or switch to stop mode.

  • Always disconnect the power supply before any maintenance.
  • Lubricate the bearings weekly with ZL-2 lithium-based grease.
  • When changing material colors, clean all contact parts with white mineral oil.
  • If an electrical fault occurs, it must be inspected and resolved by a qualified technician before restarting.
