Peter Pugger’s most popular design that caters to a wide array of industries including: Food prep, aerospace, automotive, epoxy, precious metals, dental, ceramics, professional athletics and many more. Shaft, augers and paddles of stainless steel, along with a stainless steel mixing/pugging chamber ensures rust-free clay processing. The oversized hopper door allows for easy loading. Full batch mixing and blending capability allows for moisture adjustment before pugging. Each batch can be deaired by starting the vacuum pump during the last stage of mixing, leaving an air-free product when pugged out (no need to run the clay through the pugmill multiple times). The patented vacuum design allows to deair the entire batch of clay without the use of cumbersome vacuum/shredding screens, or down time due to a clogged pugmill. Each pugmill casting has precision CNC machined o-ring grooves incorporated into them which allows the pugmill to effectively store moist clay indefinitely without having to remix or deair.
Real-time monitoring of clay consistency can be accomplished while mixing. Can automatically speed up or slow down based on the hardness of the clay being processed. The operator can also control the speed by controlling the variable speed knob. This is especially useful when extruding through dies, or for “single potter studio” (allows for time to place pugged clay into containers or bags). The patented vacuum chamber serves as a separation chamber between the processing chamber (where clay is mixed and pugged) and the gear drive system. In the event the pugmill is overfilled, the excess clay is collected in the vacuum chamber where it can be easily accessed and redirected back into the processing chamber in time for the next batch (if necesary). The vacuum chamber door is designed to disengage before excess clay can generate enough pressure to damage the gear drive system.The stainless steel work surface creates a durable work surface for convenience of the operator while loading. Its corrosion resistance makes it imperative for potters using porcelain and white stoneware clay bodies with soda spars.
