[Previous Post](https://info.deguma.com/en/blog/5-signs-your-mixing-mill-should-be-modernized?hsLang=en) [Next Post](https://info.deguma.com/en/blog/one-stop-service?hsLang=en) # DEGUMA neo basic, plus or premium - the right choice for every application Selecting the right mixing mill is crucial for the success of your rubber production. But which system optimally fits your specific requirements? Whether cable, construction, or automotive industry – the mixing mill must match your customer-specific application and the individual conditions on-site. In this article, we present three modern mixing mill concepts developed for different production requirements. From cost-effective entry-level solutions to highly flexible premium systems, you'll find the right solution for your operation here. ## DEGUMA neo basic: The Solid Entry-Level Model #### Who is it suitable for? The DEGUMA neo basic mixing mill is designed for companies seeking a reliable, cost-effective solution for standardized applications. Particularly suitable for smaller operations or as a complement to existing production lines. #### Technical Features - **Compact design** for space-saving installation - **Easy installation** without complex preparations - **Modern safety technology** according to current standards - **Solid basic equipment** for all essential functions #### Applications The neo basic reliably handles all fundamental mixing processes: - **Preheating of rubber compounds** for further processing - **Incorporation of vulcanizing agents** and other raw materials - **Mastication of rubber** for basic preparation - **Reprocessing of production waste/scraps** for recycling #### Ideal for Companies with standardized production processes that value a proven, cost-effective solution. Perfect when you primarily process one type of compound and want to maintain proven formulations. ## DEGUMA neo plus: Flexibility on Demand #### Who is it suitable for? The DEGUMA neo plus mixing mill is the choice for operations that need more flexibility but don't require all premium features. It offers the proven basic concept with expandable options. #### Technical Features - **Modular system** with optional additional equipment - **Stock blender** for improved mixing quality (optional) - **Adjustable material guide jaws** for different materials (optional) - **Strip cutter** for precise material processing (optional) - **Expandable configuration** as needed #### Applications The neo plus covers a broader spectrum than the basic model: - **All basic applications** plus extended functions - **Sheeting, homogenizing and cooling** of compounds from internal mixers - **Production of compound strips** in various formats - **Drawing of rubber sheets** for special applications - **Flexible adaptation** to changing production requirements #### Ideal for Companies that manufacture different product types or plan to expand their product portfolio in the future. The modular concept enables gradual adaptation of the system to growing requirements. ## DEGUMA neo premium: Maximum Flexibility and Efficiency #### Who is it suitable for? The neo premium is the solution for demanding productions that require maximum flexibility, energy efficiency, and individual customization options. #### Technical Features - **State-of-the-art torque motors** with outstanding energy efficiency - **Maximum flexibility** for all applications and compounds - **Individual customization options** according to customer requirements - **High-quality components** for maximum service life - **Constant maximum torque** from 0 RPM - **Very low maintenance requirements** through modern technology #### Energy Efficiency in Detail The premium system convinces through exceptional efficiency: - **Constant maximum torque** from 0 RPM to rated speed - **High drive efficiency** (up to 98%) - **Very low maintenance requirements** reduce operating costs - **Compact arrangement** of both drives on one side - **Small footprint** despite maximum performance #### Applications The neo premium handles all applications: - **Production of rubber compounds** and formulation development - **All functions** of the basic and plus models - **High-precision processing** for demanding quality standards - **Flexible formulation adjustments** for product development - **Optimized energy efficiency** for cost-effective production #### Ideal for Companies with high quality requirements, frequently changing formulations, or demanding development projects. Particularly suitable for operations that value sustainability and long-term economic efficiency. --- ## Choose neo basic if: You primarily have standardized processes You need a proven, cost-effective solution Easy installation and operation are important Your budget is limited You process one type of compound [![DEGUMA neo basic mixing mill mezclador melangeur Gummi rubber caoutchouc caucho 2022 1000x400](https://info.deguma.com/hs-fs/hubfs/DEGUMA%20neo%20basic%20Walzwerk%20mixing%20mill%20mezclador%20melangeur%20Gummi%20rubber%20caoutchouc%20caucho%202022%201000x400.jpg?width=500&height=333&name=DEGUMA%20neo%20basic%20Walzwerk%20mixing%20mill%20mezclador%20melangeur%20Gummi%20rubber%20caoutchouc%20caucho%202022%201000x400.jpg)](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/basic.html)  [More on DEGUMA neo basic](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/basic.html) --- ## Choose neo plus if: You need flexibility for various applications You want to expand your product portfolio Modular expandability is important You're planning an investment for the future You occasionally test new formulations [![DEGUMA neo plus mixing mills for rubber](https://info.deguma.com/hs-fs/hubfs/DEGUMA%20neo%20plus%202022.png?width=500&height=317&name=DEGUMA%20neo%20plus%202022.png)](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/plus.html)  [More on DEGUMA neo plus](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/plus.html) --- ## Choose neo premium if: Highest energy efficiency and sustainability are important You have demanding or frequently changing formulations Minimal operating costs are crucial long-term You value individual customizations Product development and innovation are your focus [![DEGUMA neo premium mixing mill for rubber](https://info.deguma.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SW010000_premium_Stockblender_2.79.jpg?width=500&height=400&name=SW010000_premium_Stockblender_2.79.jpg)](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/premium.html)  [More on DEGUMA neo premium](https://www.deguma.com/en/machines/deguma-neo/premium.html) --- ## Conclusion: The Right Choice for Every Need The decision between neo basic, plus, and premium depends on your specific requirements.
