Crayons Production Sigma Mixer

Perfect homogeneity is essential for vibrant colors, smooth writing performance, and structural integrity of crayons. The mixer’s powerful shear forces ensure even pigment dispersion and consistent blending of high-viscosity ingredients, delivering reliable batch quality that manual or less intensive methods cannot match.

The mixer is fabricated from premium grades including Stainless Steel 304, high-grade Stainless Steel 316, or carbon-based Mild Steel. Stainless-steel exteriors can be finished in brushed satin or mirror polish. Mild-steel parts receive a red-oxide primer coat followed by two layers of epoxy paint for corrosion resistance.

Models range from ASM-50 (approx. 50 L working / 80 L gross capacity) to ASM-3000 (approx. 3000 L working / 3800 L gross). Motor power is available in general and heavy-duty ratings (e.g., 5–7.5 HP for the smallest model up to 100–120 HP for the largest). Voltage can be customized to local requirements.

Optional temperature-regulation jackets allow external heating or chilling. The jackets are insulated with mineral wool and protected by metal cladding. This helps manage thermal transitions needed for wax and binder processing while maintaining product quality.

Completed batches can be unloaded by tilting the entire mixing trough, draining through bottom dump valves, or extruding via a lateral side-mounted screw mechanism. These options reduce manual scraping of sticky residues and improve efficiency.

Tangential blades (non-intersecting, typically running at a 3:2 speed ratio) deliver intensive shear ideal for heavy, high-viscosity formulations such as dense pigments and wax compounds used in crayons. Overlapping blades rotate at matching speeds, provide faster material interchange, and produce milder kneading suited to lower-viscosity materials.

Micro-gaps between the blades and trough walls eliminate dead zones and residue buildup. PTFE shaft packings provide sanitary, food-grade sealing. Enclosed construction minimizes dust and pigment exposure, supporting compliance with standards for child-safe products.

Available add-ons include liquid atomization spray systems, hermetically sealed vacuum chambers for deaeration, heating/cooling jackets with insulation, blade-cooling arrangements, and automated hydraulic or valve discharge systems, allowing customization to specific crayon production needs.

Mixing time is reduced to 10–30 minutes per batch, color or formulation changes are quick with efficient cleaning, the enclosed design enhances operator safety and product hygiene, and the machine supports consistent, high-quality output. It is optimized for batch production of high-viscosity pastes rather than very low-viscosity liquids.
