Used Munson CM-72x20 Rotary Continuous Mixer

MANUFACTURER INFORMATION

Munson Machinery manufactures industrial mixing, blending, size-reduction, and bulk-solids processing equipment. Munson rotary continuous mixers use a rotating drum and internal mixing flights to continuously distribute bulk materials. The manufacturer describes this equipment line as suitable for gentle, low-shear mixing of materials with differing particle sizes and bulk densities.

MAIN PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Used Munson Machinery Model CM-72x20 rotary continuous mixer designed for continuous blending of powders, granules, flakes, pellets, and other bulk solids. The machine features an approximately 72-inch-diameter by 20-foot-long rotating drum and an approximately 30 HP drive motor. This large industrial mixer may be suitable for high-volume food, chemical, mineral, fertilizer, plastics, pigment, and specialty-material applications. The exact construction, throughput, inlet and discharge configuration, liquid-addition equipment, variable-speed controls, electrical requirements, year, serial number, dimensions, weight, and operating condition are not specified and should be confirmed before purchase.
