Why Choose HENGMEI Ribbon Mixer?
Ribbon Mixers consist of a U-shaped horizontal trough and a solid agitator shaft mounted with spokes that support outer and inner helical blades called ribbons. Powered by a gearmotor drive, the agitator rotates and produces a peripheral speed of up to approximately 300 fpm.

How Does a Ribbon Mixer Work?
What It Does
The batch ribbon mixer is a proven workhorse in bulk solids processing. From seasonings and beverage mixes to pharmaceutical, chemical, plastic and agricultural powders or granules, the wide range of applications that are efficiently and economically processed makes it a popular and versatile choice.
How It Works
The ribbons move material radially — the outer ribbons move the ingredients in toward the blender's center, and the inner ribbons move ingredients out toward the blender wall. The difference in the outer and inner ribbons' speeds moves material laterally or axially, in opposite directions. The radial and two-way axial mixing actions promote small-scale random motion (diffusion), large-scale random motion (convection), and shear.

Common Questions
A ribbon mixer blends dry powders, granules and small amounts of liquid using double spiral ribbon agitator. Ideal for uniform mixing of free-flowing bulk solids in food, pharma, chemical and plastic industries.
A ribbon mixer uses helical ribbon agitator for gentle but efficient blending of free-flowing dry powders; a paddle blender uses paddle blades for faster but less uniform mixing. Ribbon blenders are ideal for low-viscosity free-flowing materials.
Yes. Heating/cooling jacket and vacuum cover are available. Designed for vacuum operation up to 29.5 inches Hg.
