Mixers

Already in the first years after its foundation in 1948, ELBA fabricated simple concrete mixers. Today, an advanced, state-of-the-art and certified compulsory mixer is the heart of every ELBA concrete mixing system. The ELBA mixer distinguishes itself by the double-spiral principle. The principle is applied in both the single-shaft and the twin-shaft mixers.

The patented hole-free tiling, on the one hand, allows to replace the tiles much faster than it is the case with individually screwed-down tiles. On the other hand, this technique prevents tiles from breaking when the fastening screws are screwed down.

The independent Trier Institute of Construction Processes and Environmental Technology tested and certified both mixer types. All ELBA compulsory mixers were rated "High Performance" machines according to RILEM Final Report TC 150-ECM. They meet all DIN 459 requirements.

SINGLE-SHAFT COMPULSORY MIXER »

The classic among the ELBA compulsory mixers has proven successful on sites throughout the world. It distinguishes itself by short mixing times and high hourly capacities, and yet achieves good mixture homogeneity. At the same time, it is fit for the hard everyday work on construction sites: if need be, it can also be emptied without additional hydraulic equipment.
Furthermore, it is easily accessible, inside and outside, for maintenance and repair. As a standard, single-shaft compulsory mixers can be delivered for batches from 500 to 2,500 litres and are capable of handling grain sizes of up to 180 mm.

TWIN-SHAFT COMPULSORY MIXER »

In the twin-shaft compulsory mixer, the proven ELBA mixing spiral is even made use of twice. The compulsory mixer features a novel discharge method enabling almost complete discharge.

At present, the twin-shaft compulsory mixer can be delivered for batches from 3,000 to 4,500 litres and, due to its compact and space-saving design, it can easily be integrated in already existing mixing systems.

LABORATORY MIXER »

The EMS 60 C laboratory compulsory mixer was conceived for the special use in science and research. It is capable of handling quality concretes of all grades, special concretes, light concretes, and other miscible bulk materials. It also allows to watch the mixing process through the screen-protected filler hole. Experience shows that the mixing results achieved in small laboratory mixers can very well be scaled up to the mixing results of the big mixers.
