Putty Mixer By S. F. Engineering Works

These putty mixers consist of a ~U~ shaped container [fabricated in M.S. or S.S.] This is the most versatile agitator we build. It contains an equal number of forward and reversing paddles which constantly moves the ingredients from one end of the mixera s tank to the other. Paddles, which move material toward the outlet, are fitted to within 1/8a of bottom of tank furthermore, theya re adjustable to assure optimum cleanout as well as compensate for wear. The agitatora s reversing paddles are located several inches from the bottom of the tank. This provides 3 distinct advantages. Because forward and reversing action occurs on different planes the ingredients are able to flow easier and faster from one end to end. The result is better circulation and faster mixing with less power required for operation. Unloading is also faster and clean out more thorough due to the fast only the forward paddles come in contact with the material in the tank when the last part of the load is being discharges. Therea s no interference caused by the reversing paddles attempting to move the material away from the outlet. The result is reduced unloading time and more through cleans out than was previously possible. The shafts are located in bearing blocks, which are complete with gland packing; roller bearings and oil seals for smooth and leak proof operation. A hinged type top cover with loading hopper and locking bolts is provided with the mixer
