How does a full mixer still mix almost as effectively and fast as a partial batch?
Because in Ocmer mixers, the pan is wider and the depth of mix is less than in most others. Compare width and volumes. This makes it easier to mix a full batch; mixers with higher sides and smaller diameter have more difficulty in achieving top to bottom homogeneity. In addition, the scooped blades create pressure in front and a void behind, drawing material from the top downward behind each arm and mixing material vertically as well as horizontally, which is needed for complete mixing. The high speed creates “Compulsory” mixing action, breaking -up clumps and distributing cement evenly to coat all particles. This creates stronger concrete.
