Batch mixer for animal feed
Streamline your mixing process with a high-speed batch mixer that delivers up to 20 mixing cycles per hour while ensuring minimal cross-contamination and exceptional mixing quality for free-flowing dry solids.

Processes and Mixes Dry Solids Efficiently
The Speedmix Batch Mixer from Bühler Group excels in efficiently processing dry solids for a range of industries from animal feed to cosmetics. With its innovative design, the Speedmix achieves unrivaled mixing homogeneity through precisely engineered mixing elements that operate at high speeds, completing cycles in just 90 seconds. This mixer is built for diverse applications, including poultry feed, fish meal, and ground spices, delivering up to 20 mixing cycles per hour. Its automated system supports seamless integration into existing production lines, featuring closed-loop control via a multi-sensor NIR system for real-time monitoring of moisture, protein, and fat content. Designed with minimal cross-contamination in mind, the Speedmix holds residues to under 0.05%, thanks to hygienic flaps and seals suitable for powder additives as fine as 100 microns. This machine’s user-centric maintenance, like adjustable paddles and easy-access cleaning, ensures minimal downtime, while the option for a stainless-steel construction offers durability under demanding conditions. Ideal for high-capacity operations, the Speedmix caters to those demanding precision and efficiency in batch processing.
