Abstract: Method for continuously mixing polymer materials by means of a continuous mixing machine having a mixing chamber provided with at least one opening for supplying the polymer and at least one mouth for discharging the mixture and having arranged inside it a pair of rotors parallel with one another, the method includes the stages of:supplying the material and any additives to the mixing chamber through the supply mouth; andmixing and feeding the materials towards the outlet, by pre-mixing performed by axial sections of rotors rotating tangentially with respect to one another, and subsequent mixing performed by axial sections of the rotors rotating in a mutually intermeshing manner.

Abstract: Mixing machine for elastomers, plastomers and the like, comprising a closed mixing chamber (8) having housed inside it the rotors (4) rotating about respective parallel and horizontal axes of rotation (4a), wherein said chamber (8) has semi-cylindrical walls (6) with axes (6a) parallel to the axes (4a) of rotation of the rotors (4) and symmetrically translated with respect to the latter, said translation being effected outwards in a direction lying on the horizontal plane containing said axes of the walls (6) and the rotors (4) and perpendicular to the latter.

Abstract: An apparatus for receiving batches of material from a mixer for continuously feeding the material to an extrusion or rolling machine has a vertical hopper which is provided on opposite sides with conical augers. The conical augers are received in respective frames which can be tilted so as to swing the augers from an inclined position wherein the augers converge downwardly in the hopper in a V pattern into substantially horizontal inoperative positions.

Abstract: Device and procedure for the supply, with recovery of the raising energy, of press actuators having a cylinder within which a piston delimits two chambers, namely an upper and a lower chamber, which are supplied with pneumatic power, the said device having a pneumatic control unit connected to the mains and including at least one supply line to the upper chamber of the actuator and one supply line to the lower chamber of the actuator, these lines having supply and discharge valves, in which device the supply lines to the chambers of the actuator pass through an economizer unit interposed between the control unit and the actuator and including a servocontrolled valve which intercepts the supply line to the upper chamber, a servocontrolled valve which intercepts the supply line to the lower chamber, and a connecting pipe between the supply line of the lower chamber and that of the upper chamber, downstream of the said intercepting valves, and provided with its own servocontrolled intercepting valve, while means
