Mixing Metal Powders

The Vrieco-Nauta mixer is ideal for mixing metal powders. Press metal powders are used for the production of products for the automotive industry like gear wheels, bushings and lobes for camshafts. To give you a good idea of the size of this application, a modern automobile contains an average of 10 kg of sintered components. More recently, the use of sintered components has increased outside of the automotive sector. Power tools, major and minor domestic appliances, locks and pumps all tend to use parts produced from press metal powders.

HCPS Vrieco Nauta Conical Screw Mixers are ideal for mixing press metal powders. If you need to add a binder for pressing, it can be useful to be able to add it during the mixing process.
