Technical Parameters
Working Principle
Ribbon mixer is a versatile and efficient mixing machine used in various industries for blending dry powders, granules, and other solid materials. It comprises a horizontal trough-shaped container with a central shaft and helical ribbon-shaped agitators spiraling around it. Here's how it works:
Design of the Mixer: The ribbon mixer's design consists of a U-shaped or cylindrical trough. Within this trough, there are typically two counter-rotating helical ribbons mounted on a central shaft. The ribbons are shaped like double helices or spirals, creating a continuous ribbon-like pattern along the shaft.
Material Loading: Solid materials to be mixed are loaded into the mixer through a charging port or hopper. The size and capacity of the mixer determine the quantity of materials that can be processed in a batch.
Mixing Action: Once the materials are loaded, the ribbons, powered by an electric motor or gearbox, rotate in opposite directions. This counter-rotating motion causes the materials to move in multiple directions within the mixing chamber.
Blending Process: As the ribbons rotate, they lift the materials upward and then drop them back down. This action creates a gentle but thorough mixing process, ensuring that the materials are consistently folded, mixed, and dispersed throughout the batch.
Discharge: Once mixing is complete, the mixed material is discharged through a discharge port at the bottom of the mixer, often aided by a discharge valve or gate.
Application Industry
Ribbon mixers are incredibly versatile and find applications across various industries due to their ability to efficiently blend dry powders, granules, and other solid materials. Some of the industries where ribbon mixers are commonly used include:
Food Processing: Ribbon mixers are extensively used in the food industry for blending ingredients like spices, seasonings, flour, baking mixes, powdered beverages, cereals, and nutritional supplements. They ensure uniform distribution and consistent blending of food products.
Pharmaceuticals: In pharmaceutical manufacturing, ribbon mixers are utilized for blending powdered medications, excipients, granules, and other pharmaceutical ingredients. They ensure uniform mixing and consistent dosage in final products.
Chemicals: Ribbon mixers play a crucial role in chemical manufacturing for blending various dry chemical compounds, dyes, pigments, fertilizers, powdered detergents, and other chemical formulations.
Plastics and Polymers: Industries involved in plastics and polymers use ribbon mixers to blend polymer additives, colorants, fillers, and powdered resins to achieve homogeneity in plastic formulations.
Cosmetics and Personal Care: Ribbon mixers are employed in the manufacturing of cosmetics, toiletries, and personal care products for blending powdered ingredients like talc, pigments, powders for creams, and lotions.
Construction Materials: In the construction industry, ribbon mixers are used to blend dry materials such as cement, mortar, plaster, and various construction chemicals to ensure consistent mixtures and improved workability.
Chemical Engineering: Ribbon mixers are also applied in chemical engineering processes for mixing powders, catalysts, and other materials used in chemical reactions or processes.
