Twin-shaft batch mixer (DKX)
The benchmark in mixing technology
- Three-dimensional mixing with the BHS twin-shaft batch mixer (DKX)
Our twin-shaft batch mixer (type DKX) rapidly produces mixtures with consistently high levels of homogeneity. It is a well-proven, highly reliable solution for industrial mixing processes (especially mixing of minerals) with medium to high output requirements. The machine is a classical compulsory mixer.
The BHS twin-shaft batch mixer has been successfully employed around the world for decades in the concrete industry. But this mixer has also proven to be an outstanding solution for numerous other applications. Our customers benefit from this wealth of experience. They receive a product that is well-proven, highly cost-effective and reflects the state of the art.
- Turbulent zone of overlap between the two mixing cycles
The twin-shaft batch mixer moves the entire mixture in a three-dimensional spiral motion. There is also an intense exchange of materials in the turbulent zone where the two mixing cycles overlap. The energy applied is optimally converted into intense relative movements of the entire mixture. Thanks to the optimized design and arrangement of the mixing tools, you will achieve consistently outstanding mixture homogeneity batch by batch, with very short mixing cycles.
The graphics below use a realistic DEM simulation to show the development of mixture homogeneity during the mixing process in a BHS twin-shaft batch mixer.
- Mixture consisting of three different materials at the beginning of the mixing process
- Mixture homogeneity after 6 seconds of mixing
- Mixture homogeneity after 12 seconds of mixing
BHS offers a wide variety of models in different sizes and versions. The mixer can be precisely tailored to your needs thanks to an extensive range of accessories and options.
