UltraTungsten Twinshaft Mixer Blade
Confined space working cut by 50%
“The UltraTungsten mixing blades have performed remarkably well considering our throughput and how abrasive our various mix designs are. They last far longer than cast so I don’t have to get into the mixer to adjust or replace so often.”
♦ The Challenge
A major construction project required large volumes of high spec concrete. Cast steel mixing blades in the twinshaft mixers were struggling to cope and causing too much downtime. Replacing heavy blades in the inaccessible mixers posing safety risks.
♦ Our Solution
UltraTungsten carbide protected mixing blade
♦ Improvement
Downtime and maintenance cost dramatically reduced
Wear life comparison:
Cast 4 months
UltraTungsten 18 months
♦ Key Features
Extreme abrasion resistance, maximum wear life
♦ Benefits
Cost - spare parts expenditure reduced dramatically
Mix Quality - maintaining blade edge improves mix consistency
Efficiency - mixer availability improved
Safety - less intervention in confined space mixer
Sustainability - worn blades can be rebuilt at low cost, less waste
Productivity - less downtime = more production
