Hydraulic Tilt Kneader vs. Kneader with Extruder
When picking a sigma mixer (also known as a double arm kneader), the discharge method is one of the key factors that affects efficiency, cleanliness, and material handling. Below are the main differences between the hydraulic tilt discharge and screw extrusion discharge designs.
Hydraulic Tilt Kneader
Hydraulic tilt discharge: After mixing is done, the hydraulic system tilts the entire mixing chamber. The finished material flows out through the outlet by gravity, making sure it empties efficiently and completely.
Key Advantages
1. Easy and fast discharge: The whole mixing chamber tilts hydraulically, so materials slide out quickly and thoroughly. Perfect for semi-fluid and paste-like materials.
2. Easy cleaning and maintenance: Since the tank can tilt fully, it’s easy to reach for cleaning or inspection – super convenient for frequent batch changes. Its simple mechanical and hydraulic design means fewer moving parts, so there’s less chance of mechanical breakdowns.
3. Great for medium-viscosity or granular materials: It works efficiently for materials with moderate viscosity and good flow, or for batches that need manual handling (like cutting or further proccesing)
Kneader with Extruder
After mixing is done, a screw shaft (installed at the bottom or side of the mixing chamber) starts rotating. It pushes the finished material out through the front outlet. This method is efficient, and it’s especially good for high-viscosity, sticky, or non-flowing materials – the kind that can’t be emptied by tilting.
Key Advantages
1. Perfect for high-viscosity and high-solids materials: The extruder screw has powerful pushing force, so it handles highly viscous, elastic materials easily (the ones that are hard to discharge with a tilt mechanism).
2. Less labor, sealed process: It cuts down on manual work, lowering labor costs. It also prevents the product from getting contaminated during discharge – ideal for high-purity applications.
3. Ready for downstream processing right away: The extruded material comes out in a specific shape (e.g., strips), so it can be fed directly into subsequent processes like granulation or shaping without extra steps.

F.A.Q.
1.Manufacturer or trading company?
We are a professional manufacturer with over 20 years of experience, specializing in Sigma Mixers, Ribbon Blenders, and Planetary Mixers. Unlike trading companies, we have our own R&D team and strict quality control system, which allows us to offer direct factory prices and technical support.
2.What is the main market for your company?
Our machines have been exported to over 50 countries, including markets in Europe, America,Australia and Southeast Asia. We serve industries ranging from chemicals, energetic materials, adhesives, and sealants to food and pharmaceuticals.
3.How do you ensure the quality of the machine before delivery?
Quality is our priority. After production, we conduct a strict FAT (Factory Acceptance Test). We run the machine empty and with load (if applicable) for continuous hours to check noise, vibration, sealing, and temperature. We will send you a detailed running video. You are also welcome to visit or hire a third party (like SGS/BV) for inspection.
4.Can I track the production progress of my order?
Yes. During the production process, our sales team will update you with photos and videos of key stages (machining, welding, assembly, painting) so you can know exactly the status of your equipment.
5.How about the installation and services?
We provide comprehensive support:
Documents: Detailed English manual, electric diagram.
Online Support: Lifetime remote video guidance for installation and troubleshooting.
On-site Service: If needed, we can dispatch engineers to your factory for installation, commissioning, and staff training.
6.How do you pack the machine to ensure safety during long shipping?
We use export-standard plywood cases ensuring stability. For the machine surface, we wrap it with multiple layers of stretch film to prevent moisture and corrosion during sea transportation.
7.Can you provide customized products?
Yes, we have professional engineers to meet your special design needs, so we can provide customized products.
8. What are the payment terms and delivery time?
Production begins after confirming details and receiving a 50% deposit. It usually takes 20-30 days. Once you approve the machine via test videos or on-site inspection, we will arrange shipment immediately after the balance payment.
9.About the product warranty?
We provide 12-month warranty starting. Within the warranty period, we provide free replacement parts with DHL/Fedex . Beyond the warranty, we offer cost-price spare parts and lifetime technical support.
