LS-MIX-A30 Fully Automatic Asphalt Mixture Mixer (30 L)
LS-MIX-A30 Fully Automatic Asphalt Mixture Mixer (30 L)
LS-MIX-A30 Fully Automatic Asphalt Mixture Mixer (30 L) is a asphalt specimen preparation equipment for laboratory and production workflows. Its combined revolution and high-speed paddle rotation create axial and radial material movement, while oil-bath heating and PID temperature control maintain stable processing conditions throughout the mixing cycle.
Designed for mix-design laboratories, rutting-specimen preparation, quality control, and asphalt materials research, the LS-MIX-A30 combines a vertical dual-motion mixing path with controlled oil-bath heating. The mixing geometry is designed to reduce the risk of coarse aggregate becoming trapped and crushed at close-clearance interfaces, helping produce more representative laboratory mixtures. Programmable timing, PT100 temperature feedback, safety interlocks, and modular quick-release components support consistent batches and practical daily maintenance.

Key Features
Three-Dimensional Mixing Action
A purpose-designed paddle path produces simultaneous axial and radial material movement, generating complex circulation that reduces unmixed zones in the vessel.
Combined Revolution and Paddle Rotation
The mixing assembly revolves around the vessel center while the paddle rotates at higher speed, applying controlled shear suited to dense asphalt mixtures.
Aggregate Gradation Protection
The vertical dual-motion mixing path is designed to reduce the risk of coarse aggregate becoming trapped and crushed between the mixing tool and vessel wall. Limiting unintended particle breakage helps preserve the intended aggregate gradation and supports more representative laboratory mixtures.
Oil-Bath Heating
The jacketed vessel uses heat-transfer oil to deliver efficient temperature rise and reduce the time required to bring the batch to its mixing condition.
