The Challenge
For a major overseas client operating in the mining sector, we were commissioned to supply a continuous ploughshare mixer capable of handling a throughput of 235 tonnes per hour.
The mixer must receive highly non-homogenous, highly abrasive materials with a high moisture content. These residual soils and sludges are blended with cement powders and large volumes of water to form a paste used to backfill the mining stopes.
The unit must be equipped with a large custom-positioned rectangular inlet built to drawing, a circular discharge outlet, and three inspection doors. Additionally, it requires a tangential inlet for water feeding.
