AISI 304 stainless steel mixing shaft balanced in order to eliminate vibration during even the most critical stages of processing complete with two bearings positioned at the end.
The shaft is also complete with interchangeable AISI 304 stainless steel connecting rods and mixing blades and AISI 304 stainless steel side and center scrapers each with adjustable and interchangeable polyzene blades.
The rotation of the mixing shaft takes place via the parallel axis reducer moved by pulleys and transmission belts combined with the main electric motor.
RPM variation of the mixing shaft is by means of an electronic system with a frequency shifter (inverter) combined with the main electric motor.
The advantage of the electronic system described above is the range of speeds available to the operator but especially the high torque even at medium/low speed ranges.
The structure of the machine, called the frame, is composed of sturdy painted iron plate construction and gives the machine high strength even in the most critical stages of the production cycle while minimizing vibration. Ccomplete with base plate with appropriate holes for fixing to the floor using chemical anchors.
The machine’s control and safety logic is entrusted to a PLC interconnected to the PC via the ProFinet field bus.
The PC is powerful enough to host a state-of-the-art Relationship Database (Microsoft SQL Express) on which the recording of all machine functional parameters and event history (alarms, values of quantities, etc.) takes place.
Through a user-friendly operator interface, the operator will have complete control of the machine’s various functions in a simple and intuitive way by accessing the various control pages.
The PC is arranged to have a dual network interface (configurable by the customer) so that it can be securely interfaced to the corporate network while facilitating access to the Remote Control system by Zanelli personnel.
