Vertical VS horizontal mixer, reducer Selection are completely different

1. Vertical feed mixers are mostly small equipment with a volume of 1-3 cubic meters, suitable for retail households and small farms. The standard RX series reducer adopts a transmission shaft directly connected to the bottom transmission structure, eliminating redundant bearings and gear connection structures. The core advantages are simple structure, low failure rate, and convenient daily maintenance. It is suitable for light and medium-load feed mixing conditions. It has excellent mixing effect for hay, concentrate, and small amounts of silage. It has uniform rotation speed and sufficient material circulation and mixing.
2. Horizontal TMR mixers are mostly medium and large equipment with a volume of more than 5 cubic meters, and are suitable for large-scale cattle and sheep farms and cooperatives. The standard R series, planetary high-torque reducer adopts a gear chain directly connected to the main shaft transmission structure. This type of reducer has high torque density and strong load-bearing capacity, and can easily handle large quantities of high-weight, viscous silage, straw, and concentrate mixtures. It can achieve low-speed and stable transmission and avoid heavy-load jamming and equipment tripping.
3. The core differences between the two are clear at a glance: First, the structure is different. The vertical reducer has a streamlined structure and simple maintenance; the horizontal reducer has a stable structure and strong bearing capacity. Second, the torque adaptation is different. The vertical type is suitable for light load and small batch mixing; the horizontal type is suitable for heavy load and large batch continuous operation. Third, the service life is different. Vertical reducers have low losses and strong durability; horizontal reducers need to withstand high-frequency heavy loads and have higher requirements on materials and processes.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone: When replacing or purchasing a reducer, be sure to choose it according to your own mixer model. Select the RX special model for the vertical type, and choose the high-torque planetary model for the horizontal type. It must not be universal or makeshift, so as to ensure efficient and stable operation of the equipment.
