Discover the difference of Crowns spiral mixing system. It works like a spiral conveyor, rapidly moving material across the drum, providing a faster more thorough mixture.

 

  • No contact with the drum - reduces drum wear
  • Less splash - reduces clean up and increases capacity
  • No rubber blades - reduces maintenance
  • 30 percent Faster Mix
