This ribbon mixer is good mechanism for mixing, granulation and homogenizing process. It can be used for some range of applications such as powder and fiber, including free flowing to cohesive and moist material.
This design is very sturdy and robust. It is consists of a conical Vessel with flat head. The agitator shaft located on the center is driven from top end with gear reducer. A double helical ribbon agitator in the vessel moves the product upward along the outer wall and releases it downward into cavities developed in the middle, simultaneously material is horizontally distributed by the mixing arm and is optimally homogenized.
Mixing time is depending on the agitator speed. The drive and bearings are kept outside of the vessel, no gears or seals in the product compartment. The rotating central agitator shaft does not have bottom bearing support there by eliminating any dead spots or difficult areas to clean and there is no danger of product contamination. Discharge of the product is fast and simple as full bore open.
