Abstract
The paper presents a design model of a continuous mixer, which employs working shafts with kneading and scraping blades as the equivalent rotors. The rotors are represented in the orthogonal system x, y, z. An algorithm for reducing a three-dimensional system to flat ones using three-dimensional simulation is proposed to simplify further calculations. The inertia and the mass moments of the rotors' structural elements were determined for the specific parameters of the parts obtained by blanks casting taking into account the accuracy classes. The conducted research allowed developing recommendations for choosing rational methods for manufacturing parts of continuous mixers and optimal parameters for the operation of the mixer.
