Every producer knows the challenge: Homogenizing large batches of 40, 60, or even 100 cubic meters of powder or granulate involves a dilemma. Conventional silo mixers handle large volumes but struggle with high mixing quality. Additionally, they demand high drive power. Precision mixers, on the other hand, are usually limited to smaller volumes and consume enormous amounts of energy for large batches. The result: uneconomical compromises in mixing quality or operating costs.

Synergy Between Silo and Precision Mixer

The Gyraton silo mixer by amixon unifies large volumes, precision, and energy efficiency. The secret lies in its unique mixing principle: The vertically arranged helix mixing tool performs a controlled precession movement centered above the mixing chamber. This ensures every point is systematically reached.

The mixing tool tapers from top to bottom, requiring significantly less drive power than conventional flat-bottom single-shaft mixers. Ideal for processes where time doesn’t matter all the time.

The suspended bearing in the gearbox eliminates product-contacting seals in the floor plate, enhancing maintenance and product safety. The result: homogeneous mixing even in slow processes of 30 to 90 minutes — without quality loss, but with significantly reduced energy consumption and minimal mechanical stress on the particles.

Four Convincing Core Advantages

  • Gentle Mixing: Extremely low rotation speeds of up to one revolution per minute protect even the most sensitive particles. Tea leaves, pharmaceutical agents, or food ingredients retain their original structure and properties.
  • Handling Large Volumes: Batch sizes from 3 to 100 cubic meters are homogenized with ease — where conventional precision mixers hit their economic limits.
  • Guaranteed Precision Mixing: Despite the gentle operation, the Gyraton achieves ideal mixing quality — even with a component ratio of up to 1:100,000.
  • Minimal Energy Consumption: Whereas conventional precision mixers require 20–30kW per ton of mix, the Gyraton operates with up to ten times lower drive power. An invaluable advantage, especially in regions with limited power supply or rising energy costs.

Numerous Products — One Silo Mixer

The Gyraton mixer is particularly interesting for powdery raw materials used at the beginning of long process routes. Its versatility is evident in the wide range of possible applications. Whether sensitive pharmaceutical agents, high-quality food ingredients, or abrasive industrial materials — the gentle mixing process adapts to the specific needs of each industry.

  • Pharmaceuticals: Homogenization of large batches of excipients, granulates, or powder blends while maintaining particle integrity.
  • Food Industry: From tea blends of various origins to gelatin compounds or spice mixes — always with gentle treatment of high-quality raw materials.
  • Chemical Industry: Basic homogenization of ores, abrasive materials, or specialty chemicals with minimal wear and reduced dust production.
