Mixing and Blending

30) Ribbon Blender
Ribbon blenders are commonly used for efficient gentle and homogeneous mixing of bulk materials. They employ helical ribbon agitators that move materials both radially and laterally, ensuring a uniform blend.
31) Agitator
Agitators are used to maintain material movement and prevent settling or clumping, ensuring consistent flow and uniform mixing. They employ rotating blades or paddles to stir and mix materials, enhancing product quality and system efficiency.
32) Paddle Mixer
Paddle mixers are used for thoroughly high speed mixing bulk materials to achieve a homogeneous blend. They consist of paddles mounted on a horizontal shaft, which rotate to mix the materials efficiently. Paddle mixers provide gentle and thorough mixing, suitable for materials with varying particle sizes and densities.
33) Screw Mixer
Screw mixers are used for blending materials by moving them through a helical screw that rotates inside a cylindrical chamber, ensuring uniform and continuous mixing along the length of the screw. Screw mixers offer a unique advantage in handling viscous or sticky materials and providing consistent mixing in continuous processing applications.
