Rotation speed
The rotation speed of the nozzle or mixing container provided by a plaster mixers.
High rotation speed devices work best with paints, varnishes and glues.
Low rotation speed models do a good job of preparing thick mixtures. Many modern plaster mixers and mixer-drills support the ability to adjust the speed (see "Features"), which allows user to choose the most optimal mode for a particular mixture. Powerful tools especially need a rotation under heavy load support system.
Max. torque
The
higher the torque, the better the tool handles viscous masses, where special force is required to turn the mixing nozzle. It is measured in Newtons per metre (N/m). Note that with an increase in the speed of rotation (see "Number of revolutions"), the torque decreases, and vice versa.
Max. mixing paddle diameter
The vast majority of attachments for construction mixers have a standard size in length, usually 600 mm. But their diameter may differ, its maximum size is limited by the manufacturer, which must be considered when choosing. The indicator depends on the technical characteristics of the tool. The most popular sizes are
120mm,
140mm and
160mm nozzles. The larger the diameter of the auger, the easier it can cope with a large volume of mixed mixture.
Weight
This refers to the weight of a fully assembled and ready-to-use construction mixer or drill mixer. What you need to pay attention to here is that the
small weight of the device is not always its advantage. On the one hand, during operation, the tool has to be kept on weight, most often in a vertical position, which is very tiring. But on the other hand, heavy models are less susceptible to vibration, it is easier to fix them in one position.
