HMB Series Side Entry Mixer
OVERVIEW

Compact Mixer with Motor-in-Place Maintenance

The HMB Series is a belt driven side entry industrial mixer manufactured by Mechanimix. It provides homogenization and sedimentation prevention in tanks up to 20,000 m³. With motor power up to 55 kW and shaft diameter up to 120 mm, its compact design enables easy installation in confined spaces; used across petrochemical, chemical, pharmaceutical and flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sectors.

Belt Drive System

Adjustable speed and torque; easy tensioning, motor and belt replacement without disassembly

Seal Change Without Removing Motor

Horizontal belt drive design enables mechanical seal replacement without removing or realigning the motor

Adjustable Motor Position

Motor height adjustment on slotted bracket; quick and accurate belt tensioning without special tools

MMX-Lock & Shut-Off Device

Seal replacement while tank is full; locking mechanism prevents shaft rotation while securely supported

Vibration Reduction

Belt drive absorbs vibration and stress on the motor and gearbox, ensuring smooth power transmission

Safety Guard Enclosure

Entire belt drive system enclosed in a protective guard; prevents accidental contact, dust and particle ingress
