Ribbon Mixer Machine

 

 

We are then backed with the rich industrial experience in the field of manufacturing, supplying and exporting Ribbon Mixer Our provided Ribbon Blenders are manufactured using materials of stainless steel or mild steel with various other components. The process of our inner ribbon constantly circulates the material and outer ribbon moves the ingredients in the blender. Moreover, ends of the vessel are provided with stuffing boxes on the shaft diameter. This stuffing box prevents leakage of material and also prevents material from entering into the bearings. The shaft is supported on heavy duty pedestals. The mixer is offered with a hopper and discharge. The drive consists of a suitable gear box coupled to the motor.

 

Principle of Operation

Ribbon Mixers are a specific type of powder blenders that consist of 2 parts mounted on a central shaft . The mixing medium often consists of inner and outer helical ribbons that are designed to move material both inwards and outwards. The external helical ribbons pull product from the sides of the mixer into the middle and the internal ribbons push the product back to the sides. The back-and-forth folding motion of the materials to be blended creates a convective mixing pattern.

The ribbon blades are designed to have precise gap tolerances between the walls of the mixer. In some instances, they can even be designed with soft material wipers to help keep product from building up on the sides. The drive mechanism often consists of a belt drive for the powder transmission between the motor and gear box. This arrangement would use a system of flexible belts and pulleys to produce the desired speed and torque required for the specific mixing application. However, more manufacturers are starting to use direct drives via gear motors that utilize a motors low inertia rotor to specifically match the gearbox unit. The advantage of this arrangement means less maintenance over the life of the industrial mixer.
