Paddle Type Mixer

Paddle type mixers are mainly used for mixing meal, vitamin supplements, cereals, dry-fruit, coffee bean blending, pet food mixing i.e. in Food, Chemical , Pharmaceuticals & Agricultural Industries. Some companies prefer paddle mixer as spice mixing machine.
We can offer Paddle Mixers from 3 Liters to 15000 Liters volume. For more details contact us on [e-mail]
Fixit Engineering offers Paddle mixers which utilize rotating shafts with pitched paddles to create a convective and folding over motion inside the container. The action of the pitched paddles moves material from the bottom of the container, up the middle, and back down the sides to create an intimate mixture of materials. Paddle mixers are welded and one-piece construction, along with heavy gauge walls and fully reinforced end panels, make these vessels extremely rigid, allowing for exceptionally close tolerances between the agitator and the vessel wall. This, in turn, minimizes residual product in the channel after discharge, reducing material waste and cleaning time.
Fixit Engineering design Paddle mixer for different materials, hard-to-handle powders, granular materials, as well as the appropriate advice to select the ideal type of mixer for the materials that require implementing and obtaining homogeneous mixtures in short periods of time. time, making an excellent balance between the power required and volume of mix.
The paddle type mixer is best suited for mixing ingredients of equal/unequal size and density. The paddles are arranged to lift or collect the product producing much less shear than ribbon type agitator. This makes the paddle mixer an ideal choice for friable materials. Fill levels can vary from 20% to 70% of the mixer working capacity.
Using helical paddle mixers achieves incredibly low coefficients of variability (Cv) in much shorter mixing times for most powdered or granular ingredients.
Paddle mixers vs Ribbon mixers
Paddle mixers consist of shafts with radial arms that support numerous short paddles, which move material in smaller areas over shorter distances with greater cutting action than ribbon mixers, preventing the entire batch from rotating on its axis. While this increases cycle times, paddle agitators can handle materials that entangle, flow poorly, or tend to "roll" when using ribbon agitators. Additionally, paddle agitators can handle certain high viscosity abrasive materials and slurries more effectively than ribbon agitators. Friable material can be easily processed in paddle mixer while it tends to break in ribbon type mixer.

How can you increase the speed of the ribbon blending machine

[@fixitengineering]

Hello, Thank you for your interest in our blending machine. Speed can be varied using VFD -variable frequency drive that will be mounted in the electrical control panel. If you have an existing system and you wish to increase the speed of it, In that case you can change the motor configuration, instead of 900/1440 RPM motor, you can mount 2800 RPM motor which enables you the doubled speed compare to your existing one. For more or any specific details, you may feel free to reach us on [e-mail] or WhatsApp on [phone].
