Interswirl Mixers
The new
'interswirl' rotor has been designed to maximise
mixing and blending of the compound whilst
minimising temperature rise. This is achieved
with a varying width main nog which semi-mixed
compound along its length, whilst blended
compound moves more readily through the
shear zones of the machine.
In addition a
reversal dam has been incorporated, which gives a
degree of tangential mixing, as well as reducing
dust stop pressure.

Carter's interswirl rotor
Carter is a leading
supplier of tangential rotor mixing machinery to
the technical rubber goods industry, and with an
increasing reputation in the tyre industry, has
followed the debate about the relative merits of
intermeshing and tangential rotor mixers with
interest over the years.
As a major force in the repair, overhaul and
refurbishment to the original condition of
intermeshing rotor-mixing machinery, originally
supplied by others, has long been carried out in Carter's factory. Much has
been learned of the merits and otherwise of the
intermeshing rotor mixer and from this knowledge,
and the assistance of mixing experts working ion
the industry, Carter
have introduced a new batch mixer design working
on the intermeshing rotor principle, with
improved characteristics.
Carter believe that they
should offer to their customers the choice of
either tangential or intermeshing rotor
technology, and allow their customers to make
their own decisions to buy from a company with an
unrivalled reputation for service and support on
both their own manufactured machinery and that of
their own competitors.

Many of the more
recent designs of intermeshing rotor suffer from
a compromise shape which loses some of the mixing
benefits, particularly with respect to
distribution in the mix, of the conventional
intermeshing rotor. Care has been taken when
designing the Carter
rotor that these benefits were not lost whilst
retaining the higher fill factor required by the
production managers of today. The design
therefore satisfies both the production and the
technical management of a company. Carter have always put
their customers first in line and with Carter's reputation for
service and reliability, the engineering
functions of the customer is also satisfied.
