Ingtec Vertical Planetary Kneader 1 = 1 Litre
INGTEC Planetary Kneader Vertical PKV This series of machines is intended for the most demanding mixing tasks. With their rugged design and high-torque low-rotation kneading tools, they are up to the hardest jobs. These PKV kneaders are available in various capacities from the laboratory size PKV 1,
Planetary movement of the kneading blades (red – central blade, green: planetary blade): Both blades rotate around their axis. The counter-rotating ratio of the central and planetary blade is fixed. In addition, the planetary blade revolves around the central blade. In this visualisation of the blade movement, the central blade is shown in a fixed, non-rotating position. Our vertical kneading machines work according to the planetary principle. The gear system is a proprietary development of iTec swiss. It works as precisely as a Swiss clockwork with a double rotation. In that way, the entire mixing chamber is seized by the blades and the mixing good is processed effectively without dead volume. Furthermore, the gap between the pair of kneading blades and the trough causes a decreasing compression and shear forces.

The optimal mixing blade design in combination with the unique planetary motion leads to paste-like products of a constant quality from batch to batch. Typical applications for our mixing & kneading machines are:
Temperature-sensitive products
Incorporation of solid materials
Solvent based products
Humidity-sensitive or degassed products
Controlled dispensing of multiple solid and liquid starting materials
Example products, manufactured on our mixing and kneading machines:
Adhesives and sealants
Rubber and synthetic rubber
Lubricants
Ceramic pastes
Polymers
Medical products (dental)
Polymer-bound explosives and propellants
In any case, Ingtec machines are engineered tailor-made according to your individual process requirements.
