Mixer with a viscosity controller: New opportunities for mix design

A new lab mixer for mortar mixes is described, developed and manufactured by Testing (Germany), with which OOO RVS cooperates. The mixer is equipped with automatic dosing devices for aggregate and water, as well as a system for measuring and recording the torque on the blade shaft, which allows quick and automatic testing of the mobility of mortar mixtures and paste to select the optimal amount of mixing water for the examined compositions.
