Abstract: The article investigates the influence of mixer spiral belt design parameters on the mortar mixing uniformity. The features of the spiral working elements were analyzed and the effectiveness of their interaction with the material was assessed. The advantages of using a drive from a walk-behind tractor have been determined, which provides autonomy of operation and increased mixing efficiency. A comparison was made with traditional concrete mixers, and the relationships between the blade inclination angle, solution movement speed, and distribution uniformity were established. Recommendations for optimizing the mixer design to improve the quality of mortar and reduce energy costs are proposed.
