Core Technology & Working Principle
A double planetary mixer replaces simple stirring with compound motion: two agitators revolve around the vessel center on their own carrier while each spins on its own shaft. Every point in the batch is repeatedly swept, compressed and sheared, so even non-flowing doughs and 1.5-million-cps gels move without leaving unmixed material on the tank wall.
▲ Dual Orbital Planetary Motion
Blades execute orbital revolution while spinning on their own axes. Combined with a high-speed Cowles disperser disc and PTFE wall scrapers, material is continuously folded, sheared and kneaded with 100% zero dead angles.
▲ Deep Vacuum Degassing
The sealed vacuum housing holds a stable negative pressure between -0.098 and -0.08 MPa during mixing, pulling entrapped air out of thick pastes to deliver smooth, void-free adhesives, gels and battery slurries.
▲ Jacketed Thermal Control
Three-layer jacketed tanks accept electric heating, steam, hot water or thermal oil circulation, with intelligent controllers holding the batch within ±1°C across 0°C to 220°C process windows.

Our Manufacturing Advantages
🏢 Direct Source Factory
Shanghai Polyc Technology Co., Ltd. is not a reseller. We forge the heavy-duty cast frames and precision-machine the planetary gearboxes from raw materials at our Wuxi plant, so you buy at the factory price and speak directly to the engineers who built your mixer.
✈️ 30–45 Days Fast Delivery
Standard PMX models ship in 30–45 days from confirmed drawings, thanks to integrated vertical in-house production lines for lathing, blade machining and seal testing.
🛡️ Strict Quality Control
Planetary gearbox alignment, vacuum seal integrity and shaft runout are inspected before assembly, and every mixer is test-run at the factory before packing.
🔧 3-Year Global Warranty
Every PMX vacuum planetary mixer is covered for three years on planetary gear transmission assemblies, mixing shafts and hydraulic lift columns, with rapid DHL spare parts dispatch worldwide.
Target Application Spectrum
Double planetary mixers are the tool of choice wherever the product stops flowing on its own — kneading, degassing and discharging in one sealed vessel:
Structural Adhesives
Automotive Glues & Sealants
Lithium Battery Pastes
Silicone Sealants
