Efficient Mixing with Innovative Mixer «TORS»

The method for determining the mixture quality is described. The patented design of a toroidal mixer and principles of its operation, which completely exclude stagnation zones, are considered. The analysis of test results for mixing of various materials with the new mixer is presented. It is shown that the toroidal mixer efficiently mixes dry building materials at smaller energy expenditures comparing with traditional mixing equipment. The mixer «TORS» can be used in different fields of the industry where it is necessary to obtain qualitative dry mixes as well as it can be efficiently used for producing the clay slurry
