The structural composition of laboratory kneading machine

Structural composition

Mixing section:

The stirring blades of laboratory kneading machines generally have various shapes to choose from, such as Z-shaped, S-shaped, etc. These agitator blades are relatively small in size and suitable for small capacity tanks. Stirring blades are usually made of high-quality metal materials, such as stainless steel, to ensure their strength and corrosion resistance. Moreover, the connection between the stirring blade and the motor is relatively tight, which can accurately transmit power and ensure good stirring and kneading effects even under low processing conditions.

Transmission part:

Composed of a small motor and gearbox. The motor power is generally low, ranging from several hundred watts to several kilowatts depending on different models. The reducer is used to convert the high speed of the motor into the appropriate speed required by the stirring blade, and can provide sufficient torque to cope with high viscosity experimental materials. The coupling ensures smooth power transmission between the motor, reducer, and agitator.

Tank body part:

The tank body is mostly made of stainless steel material, and its shape is commonly U-shaped or small double planetary. The tank has a small capacity and is equipped with a feeding port and a discharging port. The feeding port is convenient for accurately adding experimental materials, and the discharging port is designed to facilitate the removal of all kneaded samples. The tank may also be equipped with observation windows to facilitate researchers in observing changes in the state of the material during the kneading process.

Control system:

This is an important component of the laboratory kneading machine. It can accurately control the stirring speed, with a wide range of speed adjustment, generally ranging from a few revolutions per minute to hundreds of revolutions per minute. At the same time, it can also control the kneading time, which can be accurately set to seconds through timer settings. Some advanced laboratory kneading machines also have temperature control function, which adjusts the temperature of the materials inside the tank by heating or cooling the jacket, and the temperature control accuracy can reach about ± 1 ℃.
