Lab Mixer Process
The basic mechanism of the VM
®
Lab Mixer involves filling one of the Feeder Points, selecting a
running time, and turning on the machine.
Filling the Hopper with Powder
The Hopper is filled with powder (up to 2/3 full) through one of the Feeder Point's inlets.
Rotating the Hopper to Mix the Powder
After the Hopper is filled with powder, the machine is set to run a certain amount of time. Once the
machine is turned on, the Hopper rotates so that the powder can be thoroughly mixed.
Releasing the Mixed Powder
Once the machine has stopped operating and is in the upright position, the mixed powder can be
released from the Discharge Chute into a container.
