2 TWIN SHAFT M I X E R S

3 TWIN SHAFT M I X E R S TWIN SHAFT: THE MIXER Mixing is the most critical phase of all concrete production. By ensuring the most homogenous mix in the minimum mixing time, Simem Twin-Shaft Mixers provide economy, durability, and consistency unparalleled by any other mixer configuration. Simem and the worldwide concrete production community have long recognized the Twin-Shaft system as being the most effective and versatile of all available mixer configurations. The Simem Twin-Shaft series of mixers offers high efficiency and reliability with minimum maintenance due to a refined design developed within our company since the first prototype in 1972 With over 20 years experience, Simem has developed worldwide references from a wide cross section of construction, mining and environmental industries. Ready-Mix Producers, Precast, and Products Producers, Pipe, Block and Backfill Producers have all found Simem Twin-Shaft Mixers adaptable to specific requirements where consistency, speed, and efficiency are concerned. The mixing tank in the Simem twin shaft mixers is completely protected with special anti-wear liners. The mixing action is performed by cast iron paddles, shaped for optimising the flow and for minimising the material wear. Paddles and supporting arms are bolted to the main shafts for easy maintenance and servicing.

4 Simem twin shaft mixers are available in a wide range of models, from 1 up to 6 cubic meters compacted output capacity. A LAB version has been also designed for preparing laboratory tests. All Simem mixers are manufactured at our factories in Italy according to UNI-ISO 9001 quality assurance regulations. At Simem we call it TQM Total Quality Mixing!

5 TWIN SHAFT M I X E R S TQM TOTAL QUALITY MIXING Able to handle 0 to high slump mix designs and, with optional configurations up to 180 mm aggregate, the twin synchronized shafts of the Simem Twin-Shaft Mixers forces a shear in the mix which: Allows for every particle of sand and aggregate to be coated with cement; Gives the most homogeneous mix possible in as little as 20 seconds for wet batch and 60 seconds for pipe and block; And in many cases, allows for a reduction of cement up to 15% without sacrificing strength! Owners benefit from being able to provide a better quality product, in a shorter period of time, while saving on cement costs. This adds up to increased production and profits.

6 Deviation % Omogenietà impasto Mixing homogeneity Simem Twin-Shaft Mixers are not only designed for maximum productivity, but also for long term reliability of service. Driven by electric motors, the twin stage planetary gear boxes, rated at 94% efficiency, are connected to the main shafts with articulated joints, which virtually eliminates the transmission of any possible force from the mixing shafts to the reducer output shafts. Bearings for the mixing shafts are installed on separate flanges and isolated from the concrete seals, protecting the bearings in case of seal failure Mixing Time vs. Deviation for Unit volume Mortar Wt.

Such an homogenity is recognised according to DIN 1045 regulation SIMEM MSO TWIN SHAFT MIXER driven by twin stage planetary gear boxes which are connected to the main shaft with articulated joints, this virtually eliminates the transmission of any force from the mixing shafts to the reducer outputs. Twin Quad Belt drives insure overload protection. The material flow pattern in the SIMEM Twin-Shaft S Mixer. The twin-shaft rotate towards each other while the paddles force the mix in a circular motion.this forces a shear in the mix that is unparalleled by any other type of mixer configuration. Standard steel hood with four service openings for normal maintenance and inspection during mixing cycle. Rubber seals are installed on the covers for dust emission control. Water manifold in hood comes complete with a closing ring for dispersion of water across the mixing body, assisting in dust suppression.

7 TWIN SHAFT M I X E R S SIMEM FEATURING THE TWIN SHAFT MIXERS Automatic self-lubricating system Concrete seals are installed on the mixing shafts with special metallic and rubber packings, and connected to the main automatic greasing unit. All four shaft seals are continuously greased by the self-lubricating system, which comes standard on all models. The self-lubricating system provides a positive flow of grease to the back side of the seals ensuring grout does not pass into the seals. High pressure greasing pump is directly driven through the mixing shaft with a mechanical transmission. The grease pump on the self-lubricating system is mechanically driven by the mixing shafts. The grease tank has a capacity of 4 Kg., and a limit-switch level indicator is also provided. The diagram of the shaft seals: a labyrinth is composed through several gaskets and seals, integrated with the grease injection nozzles. The greasing system provides the internal seals with a continuous protection against concrete leakage. The inspection gates are equipped with safety limit switches to avoid danger during operations.

8 Aggregates loading Skip The smaller range of MSO twin shaft mixers (models from 1250 to 3000) is also available with an aggregates loading skip. The new Simem skip has been designed with a foldable discharge gate which allows very fast flow of the materials into the mixing tank, through a dust suppressing inlet panel. The skip is driven through an independent electric motor and an epicycloidal gearbox, integrated on top 65 Hydraulic Power Unit for Discharge Gate The discharge gate is driven by a single hydraulic cylinder connected to a hydraulic power unit, with an oil tank of 20 lt. capacity. The unit comes complete with a hand pump for emergency discharging in case of power failure. Variable arms positioning The special design of the mixing arms allows their installation in different configurations depending on the size of the aggregates. This feature ensures optimum performance by allowing mixer arms to The hydraulic power unit is provided with aluminium tank, complete with level and temperature display. The electric motor and the hydraulic pump provide the driving system for the discharge gate. be installed at 45 deg. for fine grains, 90 deg. for standard concrete or 180 deg. where large sized aggregates are specified. The picture above is showing the so called Dam Version arms layout, with positioning at 180. The discharge gate is equipped with 2 or 3 (option) inductive limit-switches, adjustable within a rail, for proportioning the outlet flow rate. The gate is protected with interchangeable special steel wear liners.

9 TWIN SHAFT M I X E R S THE INTELLIGENT MIXER: AUTO-DIAGNOSTIC AND AUTOMATIC WASHING Mixer Mind Electronic Check-control system Especially designed for auto-diagnostic operation and service planning, the Mixer Mind monitors motors, gearboxes, and the automatic lubrication system for temperature, pressure, and service. It also indicates the amp draw. SIMEM extend the warranty on the mechanical components of the mixer, including shaft seals, to 2 years, when the Mixer Mind is installed. Automatic High Pressure Washdown System To reduce operating costs and time, SIMEM offers a high pressure washdown system. This system consists of two special rotating tubes running the full length of each side of the mixer. Water is fed via a triplex high pressure pump delivering 200 lt. of water per minute. The automatic washing system can be started at the end of every shift for complete washout of the mixer. Alternatively, where concrete production is intermittant, a rinse can be provided between production periods. A high pressure wand (50 bar) is provided for final cleanout through the inspection doors.

10 Other options include: Shaft-cleaning rings, electronic softstarter, special materials for liners and paddles, thermo-switch, loading skip, variable speed control, and flow-through end discharge arrangement.
