Ribbon Mixer
A ribbon mixer, also known as a ribbon blender, is a type of industrial mixer used for blending dry powders, granules, and other materials. The mixer works by using a ribbon or paddle agitator, which moves the material back and forth along the length of the mixer, effectively mixing it.
A ribbon mixer typically consists of a U-shaped trough or container with a horizontal agitator. The ribbon agitator consists of two helical ribbons or paddles mounted on a shaft, which rotates in the opposite direction of the mixing container. The ribbons are designed to move the material both radially and axially, ensuring thorough mixing.
