Hygienic mixer for batch operation
When working in industries requiring precise mixing of varied materials, such as powdered, grainy, or fibrous substances, achieving consistent homogeneity can be challenging. The need often arises for a solution that handles diverse bulk densities and structures efficiently, while remaining easy to clean and maintain.
Achieve high-quality mixing with precise control
The Ploughshare® Mixer from Gebrüder Lödige Maschinenbau GmbH is designed for batch operation with high efficiency in mind. This system uses specially arranged shovels on a rotating shaft within a cylindrical drum to create intense turbulence and a three-dimensional movement of materials. This process ensures quick, precise mixing and prevents dead zones. The mixer is flexible, handling both bulk goods and pumpable substances, and includes additional high-speed choppers for breaking down agglomerated material. Liquid components can be added via diverse feeding systems, allowing for granulation and coating of particles. The mixer is ideal for the food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and chemical industries, offering a high surface quality (Ra < 0.8 µm) and FDA-approved contact materials. It’s also designed for easy cleaning with minimal maintenance requirements.
