SM & SSM Series Gear Drive Heavy-Duty Side-Entry Mixers

SM and SSM Series Gear-Driven Mixers Overview

The SM and SSM Series gear-driven mixers are engineered for the most demanding applications, offering exceptional reliability and performance. With robust spiral bevel gearing and a heavy-duty frame, these mixers deliver unparalleled durability for continuous operation in industrial environments.

Key Features

  • Spiral Bevel Gearbox: Hardened, high-efficiency gears ensure long service life and quiet operation.
  • Heavy-Duty Frame: One-piece cast iron construction for vibration-free performance.
  • Flexible Configurations: Choose between:
    • SM Series: Fixed angle for standard mixing requirements.
    • SSM Series: Swivel angle for enhanced floor cleaning and sludge management.
  • Superior Sealing Technology: Mechanical seals prevent leakage and minimize downtime.

Applications and Performance

Designed for heavy-duty use, the SM and SSM Series mixers are ideal for storage tanks requiring consistent, high-efficiency mixing.

Theory of Operation

The SM and SSM Series mixers use a single reduction spiral bevel gearbox to deliver high torque, powering the impeller to generate robust axial flow. This flow ensures:

  • Effective Sediment Suspension: Prevents sludge buildup and maintains tank cleanliness.
  • Uniform Blending: Achieves consistent mixing of diverse components.
  • Top-to-Bottom Flow: Ensures homogeneity and temperature uniformity, even in large tanks.

The SSM Series’ swivel capability allows for precise targeting of the tank floor, optimizing sediment management.
