Trough Mixer
U-shaped trough mixer with rotating blades that knead wet or dry powders and pastes into a uniform blend, often ahead of granulation.
Overview
The trough mixer uses a U-shaped horizontal trough with rotating blades that knead and turn wet or dry powders and pastes into a uniform mixture. It is widely used ahead of granulation, where damp powders must be blended evenly before being formed into granules.
Features
- U-shaped trough with kneading-type blades for thorough mixing
- Handles viscous and damp materials as well as dry powders
- Tilting trough for fast, easy discharge
- Stable, simple operation
- Stainless-steel contact parts
Working Principle
Blades rotating inside the U-trough repeatedly cut, fold and turn the material, dispersing the components until they form a homogeneous mixture. When mixing is complete, the trough is tilted to discharge the batch.
