The Ribbon Blender is an efficient and versatile blending machine for mixing of dry granules & Powders homogeneously. Approximately two third of the volume of the container of Ribbon Blender is filled to ensure proper mixing. The Ribbon Blender gives best result for mixing of dry powder & granules due to the design and shape of the mixing ribbon and product container. It can be used for Pharmaceutical, Food, Chemical and Cosmetic products etc. v Material should be charged from the top. There are port/ports provided on the top cover to charge the material as well as for air vent. One discharge valve provided at the bottom and at center of the container. The discharge height can be adjusted as per the requirement. Material gets discharged in the other container directly, so that material handling time for discharge is nil and the operation is dust free.

In Ribbon Blender the powder moves from center to the end of container and end of container to the center of container. Hence requirement of total mixing time is very less and the RPM required are also very less.

The dry material gets sufficient continuous movement due to the shape & movement of ribbon & shape of the container., which moves material for good quality of blending.

The unit consists of one electrical motor, one warm reduction gear, belt drive between motor and gear, couple drive between gear to (ribbon) mixing stirrer. Container having four nos. of legs with discharge valve & top cover. Both ends of mixing shaft are sealed.

The double cone blender is ideal for mixing soft powders of granules that degrade by attrition. It consists of two cone shaped sections with 45º slopes that prevent the material from sliding along the inner wall. In operation, the blender is loaded to a fill level of 50 to 60% of capacity, then tumbles and gently mixes so that the material spreads and folds over itself.

The smooth transition area simplifies cleaning as there are no areas to trap particles and cross-contaminate batches. The cone sections are welded at their wide ends to a centre band, and the option is available for contra rotary baffles with mechanical seals at both ends for critical mixing applications.
