100L Vertical Planetary Mixer
Space-saving vertical design with zero-dead-corner planetary mixing—the 100L Vertical Kneader, an efficient kneader solution for high-viscosity materials.
This 100L Vertical Kneader is specifically designed for the mixing and kneading of high-viscosity and highly elastic materials. Featuring an innovative vertical structure and planetary mixing trajectory, the stirring blades rotate on their own axes while orbiting the center. Combined with active wall-scraping blades, it completely eliminates mixing dead corners, achieving kneading efficiency several times higher than traditional horizontal kneaders. Widely used in the preparation of silicone sealants, organic silicon, battery slurries, multi-component adhesives, and special engineering plastics, it is an essential precision kneader for R&D and pilot-scale production.

How it Works
The core of this vertical kneader lies in its planetary stirring system. The stirring blades orbit around the center axis of the tank while rotating on their own axes at different speeds. This creates intense axial and radial circulation flows within the vertical tank, subjecting the material to repeated compression, stretching, shearing, and folding. Combined with wall-scraping blades that push the material toward the center for high-intensity kneading, this kneader can also efficiently degas the material under vacuum, ensuring a dense and defect-free product.
Features at a Glance
Planetary Zero-Dead-Corner Mixing
The combination of planetary orbiting and self-rotation, along with precision wall-scraping blades, ensures that the 100L vertical kneader achieves full-volume uniform dispersion when processing high-viscosity materials, completely eliminating wall-hanging and powder agglomeration.
Compact Vertical Structure Design
Compared to traditional horizontal kneaders, the vertical layout saves over 30% of workshop floor space. Additionally, the axial load-bearing design ensures more stable mechanical seals, perfectly fitting the needs of modern cleanrooms and intensive production.
Intelligent Temperature Control & Vacuum Degassing
The jacket supports heating and cooling circulation to precisely control reaction temperature and prevent scorching. Combined with a high vacuum system (≤-0.095MPa), this kneader can quickly extract air bubbles generated during mixing, ensuring high density of the final product.

Frequently Asked Questions
To ensure the optimal kneading effect of the kneader, it is recommended to keep the filling coefficient between 0.6 and 0.7. This means the effective loading per batch for a 100L unit is typically around 60-70 kg, depending on the specific gravity of the material.
Our vertical kneader utilizes a special mechanical seal structure, with bearings and seals positioned outside the product container, avoiding direct contact with the material. This not only guarantees "zero leakage" under high vacuum but also completely eliminates lubricant contamination, ensuring product purity.
Absolutely. Compared to traditional equipment, the planetary mixing trajectory of this kneader achieves uniform resin and filler impregnation while minimizing shear damage to the fibers, making it an ideal choice for preparing carbon/glass fiber prepregs.
A kneader is a mixing machine for high-viscosity materials. Two Z-type (or sigma-type) blades rotate in opposite directions inside the vessel, producing shear, folding and squeezing on the material for uniform kneading. It is widely used for silicone sealant, hot-melt adhesive, butyl rubber and battery slurry.
Vertical kneaders have a vertical vessel with blades entering from above - compact, space-saving, suitable for small-medium batches and frequent changeover. Horizontal kneaders have a horizontal vessel with larger batch capacity, suitable for medium-large production. The choice depends on batch size, workshop space and discharge method.
Kneaders handle pasty materials from 10,000 cP up to several million cP - the range that dispersers and mixers cannot cover. The upper limit depends on blade type, motor configuration and material properties.
The three cover different viscosity ranges. High-speed dispersers handle low-to-medium viscosity slurries below 10,000 cP through high-speed shear; planetary mixers use revolution plus rotation for pastes from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands cP; kneaders are dedicated to materials above 100,000 cP, including semi-dry compounds, using folding and squeezing action - a common choice for sealants, hot-melt adhesives and battery slurry.
