PVC compounding mixers are indispensable in modern plastic manufacturing, enabling precise blending of raw materials like PVC resin, stabilizers, plasticizers, and additives. These machines ensure uniformity, quality, and efficiency in producing PVC-based products such as pipes, profiles, flooring, and more. In this guide, we’ll explore how PVC compounding mixers work, their applications, and how to choose the best equipment for your needs.
PVC compounding mixers are engineered to handle high-volume material blending for industries like construction, automotive, and packaging. Key applications include:
PVC Pipe & Profile Manufacturing: Ensures consistent mixing for durable pipes and window/door profiles.
SPC/LVT Flooring: Blends PVC with calcium carbonate (CaCO3) for waterproof, scratch-resistant flooring.
Recycling & Pelletizing: Processes recycled plastics into reusable granules.
Chemical & Battery Industries: Mixes lithium battery slurry and polymer composites.
Modern PVC mixers, like the SHR Series High-Speed Heating Mixer, use rotating blades to generate friction heat, evenly distributing additives and melting resins at temperatures up to 120°C. This process is critical for removing moisture and activating stabilizers.
After heating, materials are transferred to a vertical or horizontal cooling mixer (e.g., SRL-Z Series) to reduce temperature and prevent clumping. The final blend is discharged for extrusion or pelletizing.
