Concrete PAN Mixers

We are Manufacturer, Supplier of Concrete PAN Mixer 600 from Satara, Maharashtra, India.

Every concrete product manufacturer has a fundamental requirement: To achieve the perfect concrete mix with the desired properties in the shortest possible time and at a reliable machine cost, Balaji PAN Type mixer is the most reliable solution to meet this requirement.

Balaji offers a wide range of concrete PAN Type mixers, ranging from 200 liters to 1000 liters concrete per batch. These mixers are designed to deliver the ideal concrete mix, resulting in improved productivity and efficiency for manufacturers.

A Concrete Pan Type Mixer is a type of mixer widely used in the construction industry for producing various types of concrete. Unlike traditional drum mixers, the pan mixer has a stationary drum or pan with rotating mixing blades. These mixers are particularly suited for producing smaller batches of concrete with a high degree of homogeneity. They are commonly used for precast concrete production, laboratory testing, and mixing specialized concrete formulations due to their precise and efficient mixing capabilities.

Working Principle

In a pan mixer, the mixing blades rotate inside a fixed, cylindrical pan, ensuring uniform distribution of materials. The materials—cement, aggregates, and water—are loaded into the pan, where the rotating blades mix them thoroughly. The stationary pan combined with the dynamic movement of the blades results in efficient mixing, where the entire batch is exposed to consistent agitation. This system is ideal for evenly mixing stiff and semi-dry mixes, which are difficult to blend in other mixer types.

Key Features of a Concrete Planetary Mixer

Stationary Pan with Rotating Blades: The unique design ensures that the concrete is mixed efficiently with minimal energy consumption, as the blades rotate around the entire volume of the pan.
Versatile Mixing: The pan mixer can handle a wide range of concrete types, from stiff to wet mixes, making it suitable for various applications like precast concrete, paving stones, and bricks.
Efficient Blades: The mixer's blades are designed to scrape the entire surface of the pan, ensuring that no material sticks to the walls, resulting in a cleaner, faster mixing process.
Compact Design: Due to its space-efficient design, the pan mixer can be easily integrated into factories or smaller construction sites, offering a good balance between productivity and portability.
High Mixing Intensity: The combination of rotating blades and stationary pan ensures high-intensity mixing, which is crucial for applications where material consistency is vital, such as in precast or high-strength concrete production.
Durability: Made from high-grade steel, the mixer components are built to resist wear and tear, providing long-term reliable performance even under heavy use.
Discharge System: Features a bottom discharge or side discharge system that allows for quick unloading of the concrete mix into containers or molds.

Advantages of Concrete Pan Type Mixers

Uniform Mixing: Due to the stationary pan and moving blades, pan mixers can achieve a more uniform mix compared to other types of mixers. This makes them highly suitable for specialized concrete types like self-compacting concrete (SCC) or fiber-reinforced concrete.
Flexibility: The pan mixer is capable of producing a wide range of concrete mixes, including very dry or very wet formulations, making it versatile for many applications.
Precise Control: Operators can control the mixing process with greater precision, adjusting mixing times and speeds to achieve specific concrete properties.
Low Maintenance: With fewer moving parts compared to other mixers, the pan mixer requires less maintenance and is easy to clean, which reduces operational downtime.
Consistent Quality: Due to its design, the pan mixer ensures that all materials are evenly distributed, which leads to better consistency in the final concrete product, crucial for precast elements and high-strength applications.
Compact Footprint: Pan mixers are often more compact than drum mixers, making them ideal for sites with limited space or mobile mixing units.

Types of Concrete Pan Type Mixers

Standard Pan Mixers Ideal for mixing regular concrete formulations in small to medium batches for general construction purposes.

High-Capacity Pan Mixers These mixers are designed for higher throughput, used in larger precast concrete plants where consistent, high-quality mixing is required.

Laboratory Pan Mixers Smaller, more precise versions of the pan mixer used for research and development in testing facilities to develop new concrete formulations.

Applications of Pan Type Concrete Mixers

Precast Concrete: Widely used in precast production facilities to produce concrete elements like blocks, panels, pipes, and paving stones.
Masonry Applications: Ideal for producing mixes for bricklaying, plastering, and other masonry-related jobs that require consistent concrete.
Specialty Concrete: Frequently used to produce specialty concrete mixes like refractory concrete, high-strength concrete, and fiber-reinforced concrete.
Laboratory Use: Pan mixers are often employed in labs to test and develop new concrete formulations, making them an essential tool for quality control and research.
On-site Construction: These mixers are used at construction sites where smaller, controlled batches of concrete are needed. The pan mixer is often chosen for its ability to produce more consistent mixes for specialized jobs.
