Why Choose HENGMEI Ribbon Blender?
Ribbon Blenders 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 Blender Work?
What It Does
The batch ribbon blender 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
It blends dry powders, granules and pastes — seasonings, beverage mixes, pharmaceutical excipients, chemical raw materials, plastic additives — using double spiral ribbon agitator for uniform mixing. It can also heat, cool, or dry materials under vacuum, and coat solid particles with small amounts of liquid.
A ribbon blender 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 optional. Designed for vacuum operation up to 29.5"Hg as well as positive internal pressure.
