Twin-Shaft Continuous Mixer

Intense mixing of dry and moist minerals
Headquarters of BHS-Sonthofen
The company
BHS-Sonthofen, headquartered in Sonthofen, is an owner-
operated group of companies in the field of machine and
plant engineering. We offer technical solutions in the field
of mechanical process engineering, with a focus on mixing,
crushing, recycling and filtration. With over 300 employees
and a number of subsidiaries, BHS-Sonthofen has a global
presence.
Over 125 years of experience in mixing technology

BHS-Sonthofen invented the first twin-shaft batch mixer back
in 1888 and has been systematically upgrading the design ever
since. Today, BHS has a broad product range of batch and
continuous mixing systems for numerous applications.
Mixing tests in the BHS technical center

BHS offers customers the opportunity to run mixing tests
with their own specific materials at the BHS technical center
in S
onthofen. Furthermore, laboratory mixers can also be
operated directly at the customer’s location to develop solutions
to challenging problems.
Worldwide service
BHS ensures quick and reliable service worldwide with its
technical customer support and a large stock of spare parts for
all standard machine types and also for older machines.

TWIN-SHAFT CONTINUOUS MIXER
4
BHS twin-shaft continuous mixer

The BHS twin-shaft continuous mixer is a powerful, reliable
solution for continuous mixing processes, particularly those
with coarse aggregates. This mixer is especially suitable for
producing mineral mixtures, RCC, landfill liners, lean concrete,
heavy concrete and dry mixtures, etc.
BHS also offers complete continuous mixing systems, including
weighing systems, dispensing, control technology, service and
individual plant components.
5
Consistent high quality mixtures

The counter-rotation of the two mixing shafts as well as the
inclined position of the mixing tools result in an intense vertical
and horizontal mixing motion. A mixture that is formula-
compliant and of a consistently high quality is ensured in
conjunction with BHS weighing and dispensing equipment.
Material bed protects against wear

A natural bed of materials that is formed in the mixing trough
during operation serves as protection against wear. For special
applications, it is possible to design the mixer with a round
trough and with tiles made of a special cast chromium steel.
Proven drive technology

The drives installed by BHS ensure high operational reliability,
energy efficiency and long service life. The worm gearing is
specially designed for the BHS twin-shaft continuous mixer
and is highly efficient. The drive power is transmitted reliably
by a V-belt drive. A torque support enables the drive to be
freely suspended, thereby preventing shock loads within the
transmission.
Maintenance-friendly and robust design

BHS mixers are characterized by a sturdy and durable design,
providing safe and easy access for maintenance work. BHS
twin-shaft continuous mixers have large maintenance doors at
the top and at the bottom.
Investment security and operational reliability

Even in the most adverse conditions, the robust, durable design
ensures maximum operational reliability and thus long-term
investment security.

special nozzles.
Mixing section 2
The counter-rotation of the two mixing shafts and the inclined

position of the mixing tools ensure an intense vertical and
horizontal mixing motion as well as continuous transport of the
mixture materials.
Areas of use Applications
Lean concrete / RCC Road construction, hydro dam concrete, blinding concrete
Mineral mixtures Road construction, path construction, ground stabilization
Fine-particle and dry mixtures Dry mortar, cement blendings, fly ash, foundry sand
Environment and waste disposal Landfill sealing, backfill, pumpable mixtures, mine filling
Heavy concrete Tube coating
Soils Gardening soil, soil improvers

OPTIONS AND VARIANTS
7
Comb-type blades 1 1 2
For the mixing of binding, fine-grained materials, special comb-
type blades are available to remove material caked onto the
mixing trough.
Turbo coupling 2
The hydrodynamic turbo coupling prevents both mechanical

and electrical load peaks. It is recommended particularly in the
case of unstable electricity supply conditions.
Central lubrication 3 3 4
A central lubrication system continuously supplies the inner
mixing trough seals with grease during mixer operation.
Depending on the desired degree of automation, there are
different designs available.
Mixer on a chassis 4
For loading stations in aggregates plants, the mixer can be

installed on a chassis to allow a switch between mono and
mixed aggregates.
5
Discharge hopper with segmented gate 5
For loading onto open trucks, a discharge hopper equipped

with a segmented gate and integrated drip guard is available.
For loading onto truck mixers, a discharge hopper with an
additional swivel-mounted hopper is recommended.
Hopper for loading mono aggregates 6
The hopper mounted on the mixer enables direct loading of

aggregates onto open trucks or truck mixers without using the
mixer.
Mixer design with round mixing trough 7

6
The BHS twin-shaft continuous mixer with round mixing trough
is recommended to meet the requirements for low-residue
discharge. The trough is lined with tiles made of a special cast
chromium steel.
Air sealing
For mixing dry materials that must not be contaminated with
lubricants, special air sealing is available.

PLANT ENGINEERING

Continuous mixing plants

Based on the twin-shaft continuous mixer BHS offers complete
continuous mixing plants of different sizes. The mixing and
weighing platforms are designed so they can be transported in
ISO containers to their final destination at low freight cost. The
metering system and the control technology enable extremely
accurate continuous weighing of the formula ingredients.
Continuous mixing plants are suitable for construction sites
where large quantities of consistent high quality building
materials (such as RCC) are required.
