Planetary Concrete Mixer Details

Type of Planetary Concrete Mixer Systems

A planetary concrete mixer is a high-precision mixing machine featuring multi-axis planetary rotation of mixing blades, providing intensive and uniform mixing for high-performance concrete. It is designed for high-strength, self-compacting, and specialty concrete applications, often used in precast factories, dry-mix mortar plants, and R&D laboratories. Planetary mixers are available in single-chamber or multi-chamber configurations with capacities ranging from small lab-scale units to large industrial models.


Difference Between Types of Planetary Concrete Mixers

Planetary mixers can be categorized by capacity, rotation system, and application requirements:

  • By capacity: Ranges from 0.5 m³ to 3 m³ per batch for industrial and laboratory use.

  • By rotation system: Single-shaft planetary or dual-shaft planetary with different speed ratios for uniform mixing.

  • By chamber design: Single-chamber for standard concrete; multi-chamber for continuous or sequential mixing.

  • By application: Standard models for ordinary concrete; reinforced planetary mixers for fiber-reinforced, lightweight, or high-performance concrete.

Compared with traditional single or twin shaft mixers, planetary mixers provide more homogeneous mixing, shorter mixing cycles for sticky or dry materials, and consistent quality for specialty concretes.


Applications of Planetary Concrete Mixers

Planetary concrete mixers are widely used in:

  • Precast concrete factories for beams, slabs, columns, and decorative elements.

  • Dry-mix mortar production for high-quality, uniform blends.

  • High-performance concrete production including self-compacting, fiber-reinforced, or lightweight concrete.

  • Research and laboratory testing for mix design and material experimentation.

These mixers ensure precise, uniform mixing even for high-viscosity or fiber-rich concrete, critical for specialized construction and industrial projects.


Main Technical Specifications and Performance Indicators

Key specifications include:

  • Batch capacity: 0.5–3 m³

  • Mixing cycle time: 30–90 seconds per batch

  • Material: High-strength steel with wear-resistant liners

  • Motor power: 15–55 kW depending on capacity

  • Rotation speed: Planetary rotation ratio adjustable for different mixes

  • Discharge method: Hydraulic or gravity chute

  • Feed method: Hopper, belt, or screw conveyor

Key performance indicators:

  • Mixing uniformity: ±2% variation ensures consistent high-quality concrete

  • High efficiency: Intensive planetary rotation reduces cycle time and energy consumption

  • Durable construction: Reinforced blades and liners withstand heavy-duty operations

  • Easy maintenance: Quick access to blades, liners, and discharge systems


Price Factors and Price Range

Price depends on:

  1. Batch capacity and rotation complexity — larger or dual-rotation planetary mixers cost more.

  2. Material and wear-resistant components — premium steel or coatings increase durability and price.

  3. Drive system — electric, hydraulic, or combination drives.

  4. Optional features — automated feeding, remote control, and integration with batching plant systems.

Typical price range:

  • Small (0.5–1 m³): USD 20,000–35,000

  • Medium (1.5–2 m³): USD 35,000–60,000

  • Large (2.5–3 m³): USD 60,000–90,000
