What is the working principle of rubber mixer?

The rubber mixer is a device used to mix rubber raw materials and various additives evenly. Its working principle mainly includes the following steps:

Feeding: First, the rubber raw materials and the required additives (such as vulcanizers, fillers, plasticizers, etc.) are put into the mixer according to the formula.
Crushing: During the mixing process, the mixer usually uses mechanical force to initially crush and disperse the rubber raw materials and additives for better mixing later.
Friction heating: Next, the mixer softens the rubber raw materials by heat through the friction between the rubber hopper and the roller, and the additives are evenly dispersed in the rubber.
Mixing: When the rubber is softened by heat, the mixer mixes and evenly disperses the rubber raw materials and additives to ensure that the various additives are evenly distributed throughout the rubber mixture.
Cooling: Finally, the mixer cools the mixed rubber to an appropriate temperature through the cooling system for the subsequent production process.
The working principle of the rubber mixer is to fully mix the rubber raw materials and additives through mechanical movement, friction heating, and mixing to ensure that the final rubber products have consistent quality and performance. The design and operation of the mixer have an important influence on the quality and production efficiency of rubber products.
