Soil Mixing is a geotechnical method used to improve the bearing capacity and stability of marginal ground. Clay, peat, silt, sediment, sludge, or dredged material can be treated to address areas of inadequate strength or stability to support new infrastructure or to prevent erosion. The method utilizing Antraquip mixers relies on thoroughly mixing binders into subject material while the material remains in-place or insitu. Soil Mixing is quick and cost effective compared to other methods such as: excavation and replacement of incompetent soil or compaction by surcharge. Treated ground can be accessed with heavy equipment in as short a time as one day.
BENEFITS OF INSITU SOIL MIXING
Antraquip Soil Mixers can also be used to remediate contaminated soil, sediment, sludge or waste. The technology is called Solidification/Stabilization (S/S) when used for environmental remediation. S/S immobilizes or destroys hazardous constituents within the treated material. lnsitu S/S is frequently used to treat contaminated property allowing subsequent development - "Brownfield Redevelopment".
Antraquip Soil Mixers are attachments for conventional excavators. The Soil Mixers are easily mounted on an excavator with pin mounts. Antraquip Soil Mixers are powered by the excavator's hydraulic system. Attaching , a Soil Mixer converts the excavator into a powerful and versatile mixing tool. The mixing drums penetrate and mix a variety of material in place or insitu. Materials can be mixed anywhere the excavator can go, utilizing the excavator's mobility and articulation to reach difficult or soft areas. Binders or chemical agents are delivered to
the area of the highest mixing shear by an attached 80-mm (3-inch) diameter pipe and
injected via nozzle located between the mixing drums.
POWER & DURABILITY TO MIX SOIL
Soil Mixers are able to effectively mix a variety of materials including: clay, silt, peat, sludge, sediment, dredged material, and contaminated soil. Antraquip engineers incorporate their extensive experience of manufacturing mining and rock cutting equipment into the design of Antraquip's Soil Mixers. The equipment is capable of operating in extreme conditions, including hard soil mixed with rock. Antraquip selects hydraulic motors and designs drivetrains and sealing systems to ensure long service life and durability in the most challenging environments. The teeth of the mixing head are available from carbide-tipped bits for mixing hard consolidated soil to wear-resistant "paddle" style tools for mixing high-water content dredged material or
soft peaty soi I.
CUSTOMIZED FOR CLIENT'S USE: BECAUSE ONE SIZE DO ES NOT FIT ALL
Antraquip Soil Mixers are custom-built to fit the customer's existing equipment. Antraqup Soil Mixers are available in four different mixing head sizes to match the carrying excavator's hydraulic system flow and pressures. Models to fit excavators from 15 to 70 tons. Stem lengths (extensions) are available from 2 meter (6 feet) to 7 meter (23 feet).
• Easily installed and operated off of standard auxiliary hydraulic system of the carrier
• Throttle rotation speed control allowing for desirable rpm for conditions (0-120 rpm)
