Soldner Clay Mixers are
still being manufactured with the same quality construction developed by
founder Paul Soldner.
Most Soldner mixers are still in service, even some of the earliest ones
built more than 30 years ago. Every effort is made to insure this same
quality in our new mixers.
Soldner clay mixers are a fast and efficient way of mixing fresh clay
from powder or reprocessing scrap clay into a useable consistency. There
are no sharp blades or augers but rather the clay is pushed against the
stationary mixing bars by a slowly rotating concrete tub
The concrete tub itself is a unique
feature — it can be used for storage or as a reclaim barrel. Clay can
even be allowed to dry out in the mixer without problem: when the tub
becomes wet, the dried clay will release from the walls. Any combination
of scrap, slop, dry materials and hard clay can be remixed and
homogenized in no time because the concrete absorbs excess water and
redistributes it to the drier materials while the blades chop and wedge.
The Soldner "rotating drum" system does a very efficient job of
reconditioning clay scrap. The Soldner will not dump the clay out, but
the blade configuration cuts the clay in such a way that it can be
lifted out without digging. We suggest that you place the unit up on
cement blocks (8" off the ground) to make clay removal easier |
