Industrial plow mixer for efficient solid and liquid mixing

Experience unparalleled mixing precision with high-speed plow mixers, designed to fluidize and efficiently blend diverse solid and liquid components, optimizing both heating and cooling processes for consistent product quality.

Mixes, Agitates, and Fluidizes Solids and Liquids

The Industrial Plow Mixer from Scott Equipment Company is engineered for exceptional performance in mixing, agitating, and fluidizing a wide range of materials. Its distinguishing feature is the high-intensity wedge-shaped plows that create a fluidized mixing zone, ensuring uniform mixing across both batch and continuous operations. Designed for flexibility, this mixer is ideal for applications ranging from spice blends and pigments to chemical slurries and industrial powders, producing end-products like curry powder, printer toner, and plaster. It accommodates a variety of production capacities, with options for mild or stainless steel construction to suit different material compatibility needs. The plow mixer integrates easily into automated systems and supports efficient energy use with optional high-speed choppers and steam or water jackets for temperature control. Meeting USDA, FDA, and 3A standards, it’s perfect for food and pharmaceutical industries. Maintenance is streamlined with features like a clamshell or hinged-door design for easy access and cleaning. Customizable configurations and engineering support are available to tailor the plow mixer to your specific production requirements.
