This Hosokawa Nauta DBXE-1800 R/S is a conical mixer — also known as a Nauta mixer — a type of blender designed to homogenise bulk powders, granules, and other dry or semi-dry materials in a conical vessel using a rotating, orbiting screw. Hosokawa Nauta is a well-established name in powder and particle processing technology, supplying mixing, drying, and size-reduction equipment to the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and plastics industries worldwide.
The machine is built in stainless steel grade 1.4301 (AISI 304), making it suitable for hygienic and corrosion-sensitive applications. It has a total vessel volume of 1,800 litres, housed in a cone with a largest diameter of 2,200 mm and a cone height of 3,060 mm. The overall installed height of the unit is 4,800 mm, and its footprint is 2,300 × 2,300 mm, giving a reasonably compact floor area relative to its capacity.
The mixer uses a top-drive, cantilevered screw arrangement: the mixing screw is driven from above and extends into the cone without a lower bearing, which minimises contamination risk and eases cleaning. Discharge is via a ball valve positioned at the bottom of the cone, allowing controlled and complete emptying of the batch. The serial number is 20142.
This is a used machine, manufactured in 1981, and is currently located in Barneveld, Netherlands.
