Brand: Drais Mannheim

Type: Plow Mixer/Dryer

Model: TK 400-Turbu Kneter

Material: 321 Stainless Steel (Product Contact Parts)

Serial #: 55918

Description:
This used Drais Mannheim Plow Mixer/Dryer (Type TK 400-Turbu Kneter) is a high-performance mixing and drying system, built for intensive blending, homogenization, and thermal processing of powders, pastes, and other materials in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and industrial applications.
Constructed from 321 stainless steel on product contact parts, this stainless steel mixing body has a total capacity of 400 liters (14.12 cubic feet), with a maximum working capacity of 300 liters (10.6 cubic feet) and a minimum working capacity of 120 liters (4.23 cubic feet).
The double-jacketed mixing chamber, rated at 90 psi (6 bar), provides efficient heating or cooling through a 17-square-foot (1.7 m²) heat transfer surface, making it ideal for temperature-sensitive processing. The interior is rated for 0 psi at 122°F (50°C).
This unit is powered by a high-performance 82.5 HP (55 kW), 400V AC, 50 Hz, 3-phase motor, driving the FM I Becker plows through a Stimrad-Aufsteckgetribe gearbox (Type H 2HH 5A), operating at 175 RPM for consistent mixing performance.
Additionally, a twin screw feeder (0.55 kW / 0.83 HP, 400V AC, 50 Hz, 3-phase motor) ensures controlled material feeding. The 3.9” (100mm) bottom outlet valve allows for efficient discharge, while an inspection door with counterweights provides easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
The unit measures 12’ long x 34” wide x 54” high (3700 mm x 1050 mm x 1650 mm) and weighs 5192 pounds (2360 kg) empty.
