PASTE BACKFILL MIXER FOR THE MINING INDUSTRY

KC4PV15000ILD

The Challenge

For an overseas client requiring a unit to blend large volumes of residual mining soils with cement and water to create a backfill paste for extraction excavations, we were commissioned to supply a continuous ploughshare mixer capable of handling a total throughput of 300 tonnes per hour.

Receiving materials from a belt conveyor and a screw feeder beneath a silo—with large volumes of water added to form a paste—the unit must withstand extra-long, heavy-duty operational cycles and severe, high-grade abrasion

The mixer strictly required engineering to highly precise specifications typical of this sector, featuring custom modifications unique to these installations.

The MC² Solution

  • Mixer model: KC4PV15000ILD continuous mixer
  • Material of construction: all parts built in high thickness mild steel, with adjustable weir plate
  • Drum internal liner in HB400 wear-resistant steel bolted panels, individually replaceable, on 360° of the drum’s surface
  • Mild steel rotor shaft, with water-purged seals
  • Mixing tools: adjustable, bolted ploughs and scrapers made of mild steel with welded face-hardening on the entire surface
  • 1 off. flanged rectangular inlet, custom made
  • 1 off. flanged round port, tangential, for water infeed, custom made
  • 1 off. flanged round outlet, custom made
  • 1 off. square outlet, with flush-fit trap door and electropneumatic actuation for drum washdown water discharge
  • 3 off. inspection doors with interlocks
  • 1 off. sampling device flange
  • Separate parallel in-line drive, with dual flexible pin coupling (for VFD or soft start control), complete with a 250 kW Mining Standard electric motor

Key Benefits

  • Required capacity guaranteed
  • Excellent and consistent homogenisation of all ingredients to form a paste with the ideal consistence for the mining stopes
  • Extra heavy-duty unit, high resistance to abrasion thanks to the drum liner and face-hardening of tools – suitable for 24/7 duty
  • Outstanding return on investment
