AKW intensive mixer is a highly efficient industrial mixing machine designed for demanding solid-solid and solid-liquid mixing processes. In agrochemical processing, it is crucial for precise formulation, uniform distribution of raw materials, and consistent end products. Whether processing high-viscosity slurries or fine powders, the AKW intensive mixer's unique design and powerful mixing capacity ensure the highest quality standards and process stability with every batch, making it a core piece of equipment in pesticide formulation production lines.
The AKW intensive mixer is widely used in the processing and preparation of the following agrochemicals:
Rodenticides and insecticides: Ensures uniform mixing of active ingredients with baits and carriers (such as grains and powders) to ensure efficacy and avoid the risk of ineffective or over-mixing.
Fungicides and biocides: Efficiently mixes active ingredients, fillers, and various adjuvants (dispersants, wetting agents, etc.) to create stable powders, wettable powders (WP), or granules.
Algaecides: Homogenizes mixtures containing specialized binders and active ingredients, providing an ideal base for subsequent granulation or direct application.
Coated Granular Insecticides: Precisely and uniformly coating core particles (such as fertilizer and clay granules) with a liquid or powder coating is a critical step in achieving controlled release and efficacy.
Powdered Herbicides: Intensive diffusion mixing of trace amounts of highly effective active ingredients with large amounts of fillers (such as kaolin and diatomaceous earth) eliminates stratification and ensures precise dosing for field application.
AKW Intensive Mixer Technical Features and Benefits
Excellent Mixing Uniformity
Unique rotor design: The combination of a rapidly rotating paddle rotor and a stationary scraper (stator) creates powerful convection, shear, and diffusion effects. The material forms a three-dimensional vortex within the machine, achieving unparalleled mixing accuracy in extremely short times with an extremely low coefficient of variation (CV), completely eliminating the problem of dispersion of trace ingredients.
High Performance, Large Capacity
A powerful drive motor and optimized blade angle ensure high energy input, enabling rapid processing of high-solids, high-viscosity materials. This significantly shortens mixing cycles and improves production efficiency.
No-Dead-Cord Design for Thorough Cleaning
The equipment's interior is constructed entirely of stainless steel with a smooth surface. A fixed scraper continuously scrapes the mixing tank walls, ensuring no residual product and preventing cross-contamination between batches. Furthermore, the easy-to-open quick-open door or butterfly bottom design supports CIP/SIP (Clean-in-Place/Sterilize-in-Place) systems, fully complying with the stringent cleanliness and sanitation standards of the agrochemical industry.
Wear-Resistant and Corrosion-Resistant Design
Given the corrosive and abrasive nature of agrochemical products, key material contact components are constructed of a variety of wear-resistant materials (such as carbide, polyurethane, and ceramic coatings) and corrosion-resistant stainless steel, significantly extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs.
Flexible Controllability
Compatible with PLC automation systems for precise control of mixing time, speed, temperature, and dosing rate. Process parameters can be stored and recalled, ensuring absolute batch consistency and meeting regulatory compliance requirements.
Wide Process Adaptability
Not only does it perform mixing tasks, it also simultaneously performs multiple unit operations during the mixing process, including reaction, coagulation, wetting, and granulation. This versatile equipment simplifies process flows.
Operating Principle
The core of the AKW intensive mixer lies in its asymmetric mixing tool system. The high-speed rotor drives the paddles, which propel the material from the bottom of the mixing tank upward along the side walls, creating a vortex. Simultaneously, the slow-rotating stator (wall scraper) continuously scrapes away material adhering to the tank walls and redirects it into the main mixing flow. This intense countercurrent motion ensures that all material particles undergo countless fragmentation, shearing, and reorganization processes in a short period of time, achieving perfectly uniform mixing at the molecular level.
Why Choose the AKW Intensive Mixer?
Improve Product Quality: Fundamentally eliminate the problem of inconsistent drug efficacy caused by uneven mixing.
Reduced Production Costs: Reduce overuse of active ingredients and improve raw material utilization. Efficient mixing shortens cycle times and reduces energy consumption.
