    Self-falling mixer and forced mixer are two different types of mixers, which have obvious differences in operation mode, mixing use, power size and so on.

    Mixing drums operate in different ways:
    Self-falling mixer: In this mixer, the mixing drum is rotated at an appropriate speed. When working, the mixing drum rotates around its horizontal axis, adds the material in the mixing drum, is lifted to a certain height by the blade, and falls by its own weight, so the cyclic movement can achieve the effect of uniform mixing.
    Forced mixer: the mixing drum is fixed, and the mixing function is to force the mixing material by rotating the blade on the rotating shaft in the drum. The working face of the mixing shovel is obtuse Angle between the vertical and horizontal directions and the forward direction, which can strengthen the mixing effect and improve the mixing quality.
    Mixing uses are different:
    Self-falling mixer: mostly used to mix general plastic concrete, because the mixing strength is not high, the production efficiency is low, the mixing quality is not easy to guarantee, so it is more suitable for concrete with large fluidity.
    Forced mixer: It is mostly used to mix dry hard concrete and light aggregate concrete, because of its strong mixing effect and high mixing efficiency.
    Different power sizes:
    Self-falling mixer: simple structure, relatively small power.
    Forced mixer: Although the mixing time is shorter, the productivity is higher, so its power is relatively large.
    In summary, the self-falling mixer and the forced mixer have their own characteristics, and the selection needs to be comprehensively considered according to the specific engineering needs, material characteristics and production efficiency.
