2021 Roto-Mix® Compost Mixers Truck 1505

Model 1505 Vertical Compost Mixer

Model 1505 is a twin auger vertical compost mixer with a mixing capacity of 1300 cu. ft. and can hold a maximum load up to 32,500 lbs. The 1505 is available in either the A series, that includes variable speed auto-mix drives with proven Allison transmission performance, or the H-Series that is equipped with variable speed hydrostatic drives and load-controlled auger speeds. This mixer is designed to efficiently and thoroughly mix materials such as municipal sludge waste and wood chips to produce quality compost. Available in truck, trailer or stationary, this unit is built for commercial use in larger-sized composting operations.

When mixing ingredients for a selected compost recipe, it is important to ensure a rapid decomposition to create a quality compost. By using a compost mixer, it will uniformly distribute nutrients and microorganisms throughout the compost pile. Roto-Mix vertical mixers range in size from three smaller capacity Single auger units ranging from 315 to 500 cu. ft. to nine different Twin auger mixers ranging from 320 cu. ft all the way up to 1300 cu. ft. These vertical mixers efficiently and thoroughly mix materials such as municipal sludge waste and wood chips to produce quality compost. Rear mounted conveyor builds compost piles and is fed from the rear gate controlled by the operator.

Twin Auger Compost Mixers are all available in Truck, Trailer or Stationary models. The 325, 425 and 505 models are low profile and offer fast processing of compost mixtures with a quick discharge requiring low horsepower with chain and sprocket drive. Models 625, 745 and 865 offer more capacity. Truck units offer variable displacement Hydrostat Drive System and FEPTO Drive is standard on front of the engine crankshaft. The trailer units have two speed PTO driven gear box with manual shifter. Hudraulic operated door and conveyor with four hoses. The larger capacity Vertical models 1105, 1355 and 1505 are avaiable in the H-Series equipped with variable speed hydrostatic.

Features may include:

• The rotor design lifts ingredients up to the side augers that move ingredients end-to-end for a fast thorough mix. Unlike the wedge point on other brands, our rotor lifts the material past the wedging point of the lower side auger, giving you a fluffier mixture while lowering power requirements. Total movement of material in the mixing chamber eliminates dead spots common in conventional auger mixers.

• The ROTO-MIX system protects particle size with less grinding or compaction. Particle size and porosity are critical because it determines how well air can enter and diffuse into the composting mass.

• With better air introduction and distribution, ROTO-MIX consistently produces quality compost by lifting the ingredients past the lower auger’s wedge point, resulting in a fluffier mixture that starts to compost faster.

• Our thorough mixing action eliminates dead spots, auger tunneling and corner pile-up giving a consistent balance of nutrients and microorganisms from the first yard of compost to the last.

• Mixes all types of compost ingredients, solid waste, yard waste, food waste, sludge and amendments, animal manure and a number of others with consistency day after day.

• Load-cell mounting comes standard with ROTO-MIX ball and socket type tie bars to connect the mixer to the frame. This feature eliminates side and end movement on the load cells, which allow for scale dependability and accuracy.
