Schold vacuum drum mixer

The Schold vacuum drum mixer mixes product in a shipping container secured on a steel platform using a mounting bracket and tightening strap. The vacuum bell is lowered over and encapsulates the 55-gal drum, pail or bucket, and vacuum is applied. Two sight glasses, a pressure gauge and an electronic vacuum switch allow monitoring of the product and process through full vacuum. A semi-automatic control panel automates the vacuum and mixing process.
