we build discharge systems for double planetary mixers

Easy to clean and allows for use with Non-Internally Machined mix cans.  The inside of the mix can must be polished smooth in order to seal as well as to prevent undue abrasion to the o-ring.  Note: it is possible that your existing fabricated mix cans may be suitable for use with our discharge systems with only some minor polishing.  Of course the strength of the mix can (mainly of the bottom) will first need to be determined.

A built-in heat exchanger on the hydraulic power unit is standard equipment providing long reliable service even with continuous operation.

There are a variety of mix cans out there.  Even some that have heating/cooling jackets AND insulation with sheathing AND lifting trunions.  Our discharge systems are designed to accommodate the widest we've seen.

Ensures that that high pressures will not be a problem.  Enclosed gusset design is easy to clean.  C-shaped anti-spreader is standard on this 40 gallon discharge system which is rated for 50 psi under the platen.

At Heavy Duty Machine, Inc. we build heavy duty machines.  A 3" diameter rod is standard equipment on our 40 gallon discharge system.

The Heavy Duty Machine, Inc. mixer discharge systems feature a modular design.     

This modular design allows the discharge system to be configured for a variety of mixing vessel heights and operator positions.     

The hydraulic valve can be relocated from the right to the left side of the machine in the field if desired (modifications may be necessary to the hydraulic piping and/or hoses).     

The platen can also be turned around 180 degrees to position the platen outlet (when so equipped) toward the rear of the machine.     

The guide rods are removable from the bases and the bottoms of the columns are machined to accept spacers. These provisions allow the discharge system to easily be raised for taller mixing vessels in the field. The procedure is simple: Remove the guide rod shaft collars (at the top) and lift the bridge and columns from the bases. Bolt new spacers (available separately from Heavy Duty Machine, Inc.) on the bottoms of the columns. Unbolt the existing guide rods from the bases and install new longer guide rods (available separately from Heavy Duty Machine, Inc.) then reassemble the machine.     

Heavy Duty Machine, Inc. also fabricates risers for mixers and mixing vessels that in many cases can be designed to simply bolt on in the field.  These risers combined with the modular design of our discharge systems can allow existing equipment to be easily modified at any time in the future. These modifications allow discharging directly into 5-gallon pails or even taller containers.
