What size mixer do I need for mortar work?

For mortar, match drum capacity to batch volume: IMER horizontal shaft mixers offer 6, 8, and 12 cubic foot steel drums for high-volume masonry, while vertical shaft models handle stiff mixes up to 22 cubic feet. Portable paddle mixers suit small grout and adhesive batches on site.

Are electric or gas mixers better?

Electric mixers suit sites with reliable power and indoor work, running quietly with less maintenance — IMER offers models from 0.5 HP to 7.5 HP. Gas mixers, like the 13 HP Honda GX towable vertical shaft unit, provide portability where power is unavailable, making them ideal for remote jobsites.

Can I buy a mixer without a motor?

Yes. Vovlift stocks no-motor models including the IMER Workman 350 12CF, the Workman 9CF, and a towable vertical shaft mortar mixer. These let you fit or reuse your own power source, reducing upfront cost when you already have a compatible motor available.

Do industrial mixers include freight and warranty?

Every mixer ships with insured LTL freight and carries the manufacturer warranty listed on its product page. Each listing includes a full spec table so you can confirm motor size, drum capacity, and configuration before ordering. Call +1 (307) 441-5529 for sizing help.

How to Choose an Industrial Mixer

What is an industrial mixer?

An industrial mixer is a powered machine that blends concrete, mortar, plaster, grout, or screed for construction and masonry work. Vovlift stocks vertical shaft, horizontal shaft, towable multi-mixers, and portable paddle mixers from IMER and Makinex, with motor sizes from 0.5 HP up to 13 HP.

Vertical shaft vs. horizontal shaft mixer?

Choose a vertical shaft mixer for stiff mortar, screed, and refractory mixes that need aggressive blending — IMER models run from 2 HP up to 13 HP with drum capacities to 22 cubic feet. Horizontal shaft mixers, like the IMER HSM 6, 8, and 12, suit high-volume mortar batching from 6 to 12 cubic feet.

Portable, towable, or fixed?

Portable paddle mixers such as the Minuteman and Mix-All 60 handle small grout and adhesive batches on site. Towable Workman multi-mixers move between jobs behind a vehicle for concrete and mortar. Fixed vertical and horizontal units fit high-throughput production where the mixer stays in one location.

Do you need a mixer with or without a motor?

No-motor models like the IMER Workman 350 and 9CF units and the towable mortar mixer let you fit or reuse your own power source, lowering upfront cost. Choose a motored electric or Honda gas configuration when you want a ready-to-run machine matched to available site power.
