ou need a homogeneous mix, reliably, every time. Our planetary mixers give you that. The world’s best selling, hardest working planetary mixer. There are over 8000 Sicoma OMG planetary mixers in use around the world.

Planetary mixers are the industry standard for the most efficient mixing of all grades of concrete. The three blade ‘egg whisk’ mixing action on each head gives complete coverage of the entire floor of the mixing pan. The blades rotate on an ever-changing axis, as the gearbox spins the blade carrying spider.

This means no segregation of aggregates, with heavier material migrating to the panwall, as is the case with standard rotating pan mixers. The mix from a planetary mixer is therefore more consistent.

Our planetary mixers give you stronger concrete, using less water and less cement, because the high consistency mix gets all the stone and sand fully coated with cement.

Cleaning of the pan is also simpler and quicker as there is no central turret to obstruct the operation. All blade adjustment and maintenance functions are carried out on top of the mixer, making the service much simpler and quicker.

What makes Sicoma OMG mixers the best?
Range of sizes from50 – 4000 cu litres
Fast and thorough mixes for all types of dry-cast concrete
No dead spots
30 second mixing time for most concrete mixes
Greater consistency, higher output and stronger mix
Fast and complete discharge
Hard wearing NI-Hard cast-iron liner plates for floors and walls
Optional internal high-pressure washer system to reduce clean-out time
Gearboxes manufactured in-house, double horizontal design is strong and shock resistant, with a horizontal oil bath to give every gear optimum lubrication and cool running.
Planetary mixer features:
Mixing arms and paddles

Mixing arms and scraper blades of planetary mixer
Sicoma OMG’s NI-Hard cast iron mixing arms with mixing blades (or paddles) are set three on a star, with one, two or three stars depending on the size of your mixer. This formation means our planetary mixers give a thorough mix, every mix. Homogeneous every time.

The arms and paddles push the mix, rather than cut through it, so along with the thickened paddle edges, help to minimise wear. Made from NI-Hard iron at 600HB, our arms are abrasion resistant, and their adjustment slots allow you to move the blades to compensate for wear.

Easy-access junction box

Easy-access junction box
You need easy access to your electronics. One junction box for all your mixer’s electronic connections, including the 3-phase power for mixer motor(s) and solenoid valves and switches.

Hydraulic Power Pack

Dedicated power for your mixer’s hydraulics, giving power to open all discharge doors reliably even on the largest of our mixers. For safety and peace of mind, an optional additional manual level means doors can be opened in the case of a power failure.

Gear Box

Double horizontal gearbox
Over 60 years of mixer experience makes our gearboxes the best in the business. The huge double horizontal design gives strength and shock resistance. And the wide horizontal oil bath gives every gear optimum lubrication and keeps the whole gearbox cool whilst running.

Discharge doors

Discharge doors
Our mixers have up to four concentric swing-out doors for fast discharge, aided by tailed floor scraper blades. Rubber seals mean they are watertight and won’t jam. All mixer doors are hydraulically powered as standard, but with the option of pneumatic if required. Smaller Sicoma OMG mixers can have manually operated doors.

Mixer lid and inspection hatch

Mixer lid

Sicoma OMG supply mixer lids, including inspection hatches, in various formats. As standard, one semi-circular mixer lid for inspection and maintenance. If required, this lid can be split in up to three sections and an additional lid could be put on the other side of the mixer. Our largest models have one cover, hydraulically powered for easy-access.

Fully automatic concrete mixing plant well reduces labor amount in construction project, and more humanized designs are added in terms of using this kind of concrete mixing plant. Then, how do we rightly operate fully automatic concrete mixing plant? Which requirements should be met for operators? The so-called full automation of concrete mixing plant means that all devices such as transporting system, batching system, mixing system and discharging system can be controlled by a computer. First of all, aggregate concrete batching is transported by belt conveyor. The pump and fly ash are transmitted by screw conveyor to be weighed. Then, in the operation process of fully automatic concrete mixing plant, water and additives are weighed by electric scale. All needed concrete materials are weighed by electric scale and made a ratio according to design process. The main concrete mixer is adjusted according the materials. When production combination starts and the materials are mixed evenly,

Currently, the strength of common used concrete is 20一40 n/mm. It is not difficult to produce the concrete of 80一100 N/mm if necessary. In order to lighten self-weight, concrete with light weight but high strength gets big development. Due to the continuous improvement of material strength, the application scope reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete is expanding. In recent 30 years, reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete have achieved remarkable development in long-span structure and high-rise building structure. For instance, Germany builds a roof beam of hangar with scope of 90m by adopting prestressed lightweight concrete; the scope of bridge in Japan reaches 239 m. During this period, design theory also has new development. Since the 1970s, structural reliability theory has gradually stepped into the stage of engineering practical on the basis of mathematical statistics, which makes the limit design method more improved and scientific. In the meantime, structure
