Plough Shear Mixer
Robust Industrial Plough Mixers for Homogeneous Mixing
At Liuminex, we manufacture Plough Shear Mixers designed for intensive, high-speed mixing of powders, pastes, wet materials, slurries, and granules. Equipped with plough-shaped agitators and high-speed choppers, our mixers provide fast, lump-free, and uniform blending, even for difficult materials with differing particle sizes and densities.
Ideal for Mixing
- Dry powders and granules
- Moist or cohesive powders
- Viscous slurries and semi-solid pastes
- Agglomerated or fibrous materials
- Pigments, dyes, ceramics, and metal powders
- Lubricants, resins, and grease bases
- Instant food powders and detergents
Key Features
- Plough-shaped agitators for 3D mechanical fluidization
- High-speed choppers to break lumps and agglomerates
- Short mixing times (2–10 minutes) with excellent homogeneity
- Easy access for cleaning with fully openable doors
- Dustproof, leak-proof design with multiple seal options
- Batch or continuous operation supported
- Optional jacketed design for heating or cooling
