Upgrades

We understand that every application is unique, which is why we offer customisation and upgrades to tailor your machine to your specific requirements.

Adapter for mixing smaller drum sizes

We can offer an adjustable adapter to fit drums from 100-860mm in height into the drum mixer. You can set the adapter to different drum heights and diameters by simply moving the placement of two quick-release pins. If you require the need for a custom mixer for particular or unusual drums, we can modify this unit to suit your needs.
