SWING OUT DRIVES

This unique option for SICOMA Twin Shaft Mixers was developed over the last years to make any maintenance to the shaft supports easier and faster . The full drive assembly (Motor, Pulleys and Gearbox) is hinged to the side of the mixer tank and it can be swung out easily without the need of cranes or any lifting device. The downtime for the plant is minimised, resulting in a extremely low maintenance cost.

All JANUS models (i.e. Twin Shaft Mixers with Four Motors) are supplied with the Swing Out Drives as a standard.

LOW MOTION DRIVE

When the mixer is supplied with the Swing Out Drives option (SWOD), we recommend to add the Low Motion Drive option. With this auxiliary motor, the shafts can be rotated at low speed and safely with the inspection doors opened. The cleaning as well as the regular maintenance (such as the periodic adjustment of the blades) are simplified and faster.
