Portable Mixers

Palmer Cube Mixer

This new option allows the user to move the mixer easily using either a forklift or overhead crane. It is ideal for foundries that make large molds which require specialty facing sands (Chromite, Zircon, etc.) or need to take the mixer to the mold rather than take the mold to the mixer. This unit is also an ideal demo machine for resin companies and other foundry consumable suppliers

According to owner, Jack Palmer, "This new design meets the needs of anyone making large molds requiring specialty sands. Molders no longer have to wheelbarrow or bucket prepared specialty sand for the core room to the molding floor. We are proud to provide the industry with another productivity and quality improvement tool."

Additional System Notes

• Sand Storage Tanks – Tanks are to be filled remote of the car from primary sand storage silos. All sand conditioning needs to be performed prior to filling of the tanks. This includes heating, cooling and classification.
• Resin Storage Tanks – Refilling of the on-board resin storage tanks to be determined as required. Generally, they are gravity filled via either tote tank or from bulk resin supply. Note, for Furan resin system users, it is required to use mutually exclusive hose connections to prevent the direct mixing of resin and acid.
• Track – Cost of track to be determined at time of order and final design. Generally, grade level track is used to eliminate subterranean cleaning. Standard 90# ASCE track should be used. Quantity of wheels to be used is based on final mobile car weight. Rail and its installation can be purchased by customer for economy.
• Installation and Startup – Installation is not included in the price of the mobile mixing system. Pricing to be determined on final equipment and installation design. It is not necessary for Palmer personnel to start up the quoted equipment. Most maintenance departments are able to handle the installation with minimal assistance.
