The specialist for continuous gap adjustment
Intermix VIC is the ideal partner for the tyre and technical rubber goods industry
The Intermix® VIC is another excellent example of intermeshing technology. This machine type provides a unique, additional processing parameter of special importance for the tyre industry – it allows the gap between rotors to be adjusted during the mixing process. A large gap allows very fast intake of raw materials into the mixing chamber, while a narrow gap increases the quality of dispersion. Thanks to the gap adjustment option, the machine can be used in a very efficient and versatile way. Like the Intermix® E, the VIC also delivers high specific energy into the compound in the shortest time with optimal temperature control thanks to a favourable ratio between cooling surfaces and batch volume: a key factor for temperature-sensitive compounds such as silica.
More features:
- Variable distance between rotors for optimal mixing process steps
- Fast intake and adjustable shear level
- Flexibility for different process applications (mastication, remilling master batches and final production)
- Durable crack-free hard facing for an extended lifetime
- Hydraulic ram with highly accurate pressure control
- Hydraulic dust seals with multiple cylinder concept (HCD) for superior sealing and easy maintenance
