CONSTRUCTION OF INDUSTRIAL MIXER

CONSTRUCTION OF INDUSTRIAL MIXER

ABSTRACT

Industrial mixer is equipment designed to carryout operation involved the combination of two or more substance to achieve a uniform product.        The method of fabrication of this mixer involves a preliminary computation of the dimensions of the standard which they will be used in marketing out cutting, out to sizes rolling or folding, welding, body filling and painting to prevent corrosion attack.        The result obtained after the process undergoes was a batch operation industrial mixer which can contain about 56.12 liters with statistics of the vessel being 410mm by diameter and 425mm by height.  The width of the baffle is 35mm and length of impeller 150mm. Although, the result obtained (mixer) was excellent, but do not have up to 100% mixing efficiency due to some factors during the fabrication process such as error in cutting operation, low quality material etc.         Cost of production was estimated up to thirty thousand naira when summed up, i.e the material cost, labour cost and expenses.
