Abstract
The invention relates to a compounder comprising a mixing unit, which can be mechanically driven by a drive module and is provided with one or more feed devices ( ) for the material to be processed and one or more additives that are to be mixed with this material. The mixing unit is located in a supporting frame configured as a three-dimensional framework, and the supply and discharge lines required to operate the mixing unit, for the material being processed, and auxiliary materials or operational materials and energy as well as for the measurement, control and regulation technologies are substantially completely installed in or on the supporting frame and are connected to the mixing unit. The supporting frame is configured both as a transport frame for transporting the compounder to the job site and as a mounting frame for the placement of the operational compounder on a substructure at the job site. According to the invention, mechanical vibrations caused by the drive module of the mixing unit are kept at bay from the vibration-sensitive devices of the installation.
