Plastic Color Mixer for Efficient Material Blending

In plastic processing industry, uniform material mixing is a key factor to ensure stable product quality. The plastic color mixer, also known as a vertical mixer or batch mixer, is widely used for blending virgin materials, recycled plastics, and masterbatch before extrusion or injection molding.

The color mixer is designed with a vertical structure and spiral mixing blade, which enables three-dimensional material circulation inside the mixing chamber. During operation, raw materials are lifted from the bottom to the top through the central screw and then evenly dispersed by gravity, forming a continuous mixing cycle. This working principle helps achieve uniform color distribution and consistent material properties.

For PVC powder, PE, PP granules, and masterbatch mixing, the equipment can be configured with heating or cooling functions according to process requirements. Heating type mixers are often used for drying or hot blending applications, while cooling systems help maintain stable temperature during continuous operation.

The machine body is typically made of carbon steel or stainless steel, depending on the material characteristics. Key components such as mixing blades and inner walls are treated to improve wear resistance and reduce material residue. The discharge system is designed for convenient material output and easy cleaning.

In practical production lines, color mixers are often integrated with extrusion lines, recycling systems, or compounding processes. Proper capacity selection and motor configuration ensure stable mixing performance while maintaining energy efficiency.

With modular design and adjustable mixing time settings, plastic color mixers provide flexible solutions for different production demands. Technical parameters can be customized according to material type, output requirement, and plant layout.
