Forced action mixers use blades fixed on rotating shafts to forcefully shear,knead,and mix materials,resulting in intense mixing action,high efficiency,and suitability for stiff,lightweight aggregate,and high-performance concrete.Tilting drum mixers lift materials via a rotating drum and rely on free-fall for mixing,offering simpler structure and lower energy consumption,better suited for plastic concrete.Modern mixers focus on wear resistance with high-hardness blades and liners.The transmission system is stable and reliable,with good sealing to prevent leakage.

Specified by discharge capacity(L or m³),e.g.,JS500,JS1000(forced action,0.5m³,1m³discharge)or JZC350,JZM750(tilting).Loading capacity is typically about 1.5 times the discharge capacity.Mixing time varies with concrete type,usually 30-90 seconds.Motor power ranges from a few kW to several tens of kW.Mixing shaft speed is a key parameter affecting mixing performance.

Forced action mixers are primarily used in precast concrete plants,as the main mixer in medium/large batching plants,and on sites requiring high-quality concrete.Tilting drum mixers are more common in small sites,rural construction,and road maintenance for temporary,small-volume concrete production.It is key for on-site self-sufficient concrete production.
