About Rubber Mixers

TMP, A Division of French is a brand internationally recognized for high-performance machinery for the elastomer, composite, printed circuit board, plastic card lamination, and other related industries. In 2009, French acquired TMP and has been manufacturing their lines of technologically advanced intensive rubber mixers, from 3-liter laboratory mixers to the larger 35 to 110-liter production models, compression and transfer style hydraulic presses from 5 to 3,000 tons and lamination presses.

Completely American-made, we manufacture tilt-body mixers and presses to the highest engineering standards and specifications. In addition to our revolutionary TECHNI-MOLD automated hydraulic press machines and TECHNI-MIX rubber mixers, innovation at French continues with our ongoing development of better methods, products and solutions to meet our customers' needs, including advancements in our vacuum press designs. We even offer advanced control packages with capabilities for rubber and silicone mixing.

Mixer Advanced Control Packages for Rubber or Silicone

  • For Use with Any Mixer Brand or Size
  • Modern, Friendly Operator Control Station
  • Data Storage at Mixer or through Network
  • Integration of All Mixing Components

The Techni-Mix Mixer Control System is designed to operate any intensive mixer used for rubber or silicone compounding. The system provides an advanced means of developing, analyzing and storing compound mixing procedures. It provides for documentation of the various process parameters for each mixing sequence, documentation of changes made to the mixing procedure by the operator, and production history and analysis. Packages are available for both Tilt and drop door style mixers as well as for incorporating upstream ingredient weigh stations or downstream mill and take-away processes.

TMP 35 Liter Techni-Mix Mixer Increases Customer’s Productivity and Profit

The TMP Techni-Mix HD series tilt-type industrial mixer is proven to increase customer’s productivity and profit.

One of TMP’s customers has relied on their TMP 35 Liter Techni-Mix mixer to mix carbon black fluoroelastomers for over 10 years. The Techni-Mix, equipped with TMP’s advanced mixer control system, is used to mix materials based on power (energy utilization – KWH) which gives the customer consistent results batch to batch. The mixed fluoroelastomer material passes quality lab testing, with excellent dispersion and physicals, after one pass through the TMP Techni-Mix. This consistency has greatly reduced the customer’s total material processing cost, increasing their productivity and profit.

 

With the machine programmed to mix on energy utilization – KWH, operators can also monitor various control parameters such as segment times, rotor RPM, batch temperature and ram pressure to ensure and confirm accurate mixing execution.

TMP’s American-made, Techni-Mix HD Series industrial mixers are available in a variety of sizes from a 5 Liter laboratory size to the larger 35 to 110 Liter production models. TMP mixers can be used for most mixing applications, along with a full range of options that can be configured to meet customer’s needs. Mixers can also be offered with TMP’s exclusive vacuum design option to contain and aid in dispersion of ingredients and reduce moisture.
