Abrégé

A mixing device is configured for the continuous provision of a gelling mass for a molding machine. The mixing device includes an inlet, an outlet and a conduit section which is situated between the inlet and the outlet and into which at least one admixing conduit runs out, via which admixing conduit a substance to be admixed can be fed such that the substance to be admixed is mixed with a base mass which is fed through the inlet, in a mixing region in the conduit section. The mixing device is configured in a manner such that the spatial distance between the outlet and the mixing region in which the substance to be admixed is mixed with the base mass, can be changed. A molding machine with such a mixing device and to a method for processing a flowable and gellable mass are provided.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a mixing apparatus configured for continuously providing a gelating composition for a molding machine, wherein the mixing apparatus has an inlet, an outlet and, disposed between the inlet and the outlet, a conduit section into which opens at least one admixing conduit through which an admixable substance is suppliable in such a way that in a mixing region in the conduit section the admixable substance is mixed with a base composition supplied via the inlet, wherein the mixing apparatus is configured such that the spatial distance between the outlet and the mixing region in which the admixable substance is mixed with the main composition is adjustable, and to a molding machine comprising such a mixing apparatus and to a method of processing a flowable and gelatable composition.
