Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a mixer device with distributive mixing action for an extruder, an injection moulding machine and the like, including a hollow stator and a rotor arranged for rotation in the stator and at least one separate mixing ring which is provided at least on its interior surface with mixing elements and which is arranged between the rotor and stator around the rotor for free rotation, characterized in that the mixing elements include passages which are radially orientated in the mixing ring and are facing at one end the inner stator surface and on the other the outer rotor surface, and to a rotor section, to a mixing ring, to an extruder, and to an injection moulding machine provided with same.
