Powder blender for liquid mixing applications

Optimize your process with a compact blender designed to efficiently dissolve powders into liquids, ensuring homogeneous mixtures for smooth operations in your production line.

Dissolves and Mixes Solids in Liquid Streams

The Table Blender MM-1, MM-2, and MM-3 series from INOXPA are compact, efficient solutions designed for pharmaceutical, food, and beverage processing. These blenders use a centrifugal pump paired with a venturi system to achieve thorough dissolution of solids and powders in liquids. Ideal for producing items like cough syrup, marmalade, yogurt, and flavored milk, they ensure efficient process integration.

The table blender’s unique venturi system generates a suction force, drawing solids from the hopper into the pumped liquid, ensuring uniform mixing. It supports batch operations and manual control, with in-line options available for continuous processes. The design includes a hygienic layout with ISO 2852 Clamp connections, simplifying cleaning and assembly.

With construction options in AISI 316L and AISI 304 stainless steel, the blenders offer corrosion resistance essential for demanding pharmaceutical and food applications. Optional features like double mechanical seals, solenoid valves for seal cooling, and pneumatic actuation for valves enhance flexibility and process reliability. The unit is suitable for clean-in-place (CIP) systems, streamlining maintenance while maintaining product integrity.
