Specifications

What our Experts Think

• Compact vertical shaft mixer for professional crews
  The IMER MIX 120 Plus (Ref. 1194302) is a forced-action vertical shaft mixer designed for fast, consistent mixing of mortar, grout, stucco, and dry-pack materials on job sites.
• Fast production in a small footprint
  Delivers about 3 cu ft batch output and can produce a wheelbarrow of material in ~3 minutes, making it highly efficient for 2–4 person crews.
• High-torque mixing performance (no segregation)
  The vertical paddle system keeps material constantly in motion, producing a uniform mix with minimal air entrapment and strong consistency control.
• Powerful yet simple drive system
  Uses a 2 HP, 110V motor with gearbox drive and forward/reverse capability, helping break clumps and maintain consistent material quality.
• Designed for tough job-site materials
  Handles dry pack, masonry mortar, grout, stucco, and repair mixes, making it ideal for flooring, tiling prep, and general construction finishing work.
• Clean, controlled discharge system
  Material is discharged directly into a wheelbarrow or bucket with a controlled outlet system that reduces mess and improves accuracy on placement.
• Compact + mobile design
  Fits through standard doorways and includes transport wheels for easy positioning on tight job sites, useful for interior renovation work.
• Optional dust control upgrade
  Can be fitted with an iDUST grate system to reduce airborne dust when mixing dry materials, improving job-site cleanliness.
• Expert insight
  Compared to drum mixers, this is a high-efficiency production mixer—better consistency, faster cycles, and more control, especially for bagged or pre-blended materials.

Q5: What materials can it handle?
A: It is designed for mortar, stucco, grout, dry-pack cement, and other pre-blended or site-mixed construction materials, including stiff low-slump mixes.

Q6: What makes it efficient on job sites?
A: It delivers high torque mixing, fast batch cycles, and controlled discharge, allowing crews to work faster with consistent mix quality.

Q7: Does it support reverse mixing?
A: Yes, it includes a forward and reverse paddle system, helping break up clumps and restore mix consistency without manual intervention.

Q8: Is it suitable for tight job sites?
A: Yes, it is compact, portable, and can pass through standard doorways, making it ideal for indoor renovation and confined work areas.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean mixing drum immediately after use: Remove mortar, stucco, grout, or dry-pack material before it hardens to prevent buildup on paddles and drum walls.
• Flush discharge outlet daily: Keep the controlled discharge gate clear so material flows smoothly without blockage or residue.
• Maintain paddles regularly: Inspect rubber paddles for wear or cracking—worn paddles reduce mixing quality and torque efficiency.
• Clean iDUST grate system: If equipped, vacuum or wash dust grate to prevent clogging and maintain proper airflow.
• Check gearbox & reverse function: Ensure forward/reverse operation works smoothly to break up clumps and maintain consistent mixing performance.
• Inspect motor vents (2 HP unit): Keep cooling fins and housing free of dust to prevent overheating during continuous use.
• Tighten frame & wheel bolts: Vibration from high-torque mixing can loosen fasteners over time—check regularly.
• Avoid material drying inside: Even small residue can harden and reduce drum efficiency and paddle lifespan.
• Store clean, dry, and covered: Prevent corrosion on steel drum, frame, and electrical components after use.
