Powder blender for efficient mixing and discharge

Achieve precise mixing and efficient discharge with advanced powder blending technology, optimizing your batch operations and minimizing product carry-over for seamless production.

Mixes and Blends Powders and Granules

The Guedu® mixing agitator from De Dietrich Process Systems is engineered for precise powder blending in industries such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and bio-pharmaceuticals. Its unique agitator profile creates a vortex motion, facilitating division, separation, and dispersion of products like pharmaceutical tablets and specialty polymers. The equipment supports both manual and automated batch operations, integrating high-speed lump breakers for tackling challenging solid and slurry blends. Designed with a flat vessel base and minimal clearance, the agitator ensures thorough discharge, minimizing carry-over between batches. The system operates with optional spray rings for effective wash-in-place, promoting ease of cleaning and maintenance. Constructed for compatibility with a range of materials, it adheres to industry standards, offering customizable solutions for specific product types and processing needs.
