The R&S mixer is designed to deliver exceptional quality and durability, ensuring reliable performance even under the most demanding conditions. Built with heavy-duty components, including precision-machined gears, robust hydraulic systems, and high-quality materials, it stands out for its longevity and resilience. Every detail, from the hardened steel wear rings to the polyurethane drum liners, is carefully engineered to withstand wear and tear, reducing maintenance needs and extending the life of the equipment. With its superior mixing capabilities and thoughtfully designed safety features, this mixer offers unparalleled efficiency and durability for any concrete mixing operation.
Twin heavy-duty drum drive units with helical reducers, couplings, TEFC motors, and precision-machined pinion gears.
Hardened precision main gear with safety guard. Both the main gear and drives are located away from the mixer discharge area, protecting them from contamination caused by splashing concrete.
The tilting of the mixer is provided by two hydraulic cylinders powered by a hydraulic power unit.
The hydraulic power unit includes a pressure-adjusting variable displacement pump. This style of pump produces much less heat than conventional vane and gear pumps. The power unit also includes a pressure relief valve, suction, and return line filters.
Tilting of the mixer is controlled by a variable speed control valve and a numerical dialing control knob.
The mixing drum is supported at the rear by a hub and spindle assembly, which includes two heavy-duty roller bearings and an oil seal with a replaceable steel wear ring. Both the hub and the spindle are hammer-forged and machined from high-grade steel.
The charging/discharging mixer mouth is the largest in the industry, allowing for very quick charging and discharging of material, and also providing easy access when servicing the interior of the mixer. The mouth is equipped with an AR steel wear ring, on which a rubber dust seal makes direct contact, providing an excellent dust-tight seal.
Superior mixing of materials is accomplished by heavy-duty mixer blades. Unlike double-opening tilt mixers, no secondary blades or buckets are required, greatly reducing clean-out time and blade replacement costs.
The interior of the drum and the front side of the mixing blades are protected by one-inch thick polyurethane liners.
The concrete discharge chute, which directs material into the transport truck, is lined with 3/4” polyurethane wear liners. The chute is also equipped with oversized splash guards that help contain wet material.
Four proximity switches confirm the charging/discharging positions and reduce speed at the end of the tilting cycle, protecting the hydraulic system from shock loads.
The R/S Tilt Mixer offers exceptional durability, efficiency, and ease of maintenance, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding conditions. Its heavy-duty construction and advanced hydraulic systems deliver optimal mixing results while minimizing downtime. With customizable add-ons to suit specific needs, this mixer provides a reliable, high-performance solution for any concrete mixing operation.
