Ribbon Mixer - A Classic Equipment Choice For Efficient And Uniform Mixing | JCT Machinery

Ribbon Mixer Working Principle

The equipment adopts a U-shaped cylinder + inner and outer double-layer ribbon structure:

• Outer ribbon pushed the material towards the sides.
• Inner ribbon pushed the material towards the center.
• Two flow directions are opposite, creating strong onvective mixing.

Through this three-dimensional circulating flow, the materials achieve a high degree of uniformity in a short time, making it especially suitable for mixing powders wih small amounts of liquids.

Ribbon Mixer Main Structure

1. Double-layer ribbon structure

Faster mixing speed

Fewer dead spots

Suitable for lightweight powders, easily hygroscopic powders, and materials with uneven additive ratios.

2. U-shaped cylinder design

Allows for a more rational material mixing flow path, reducing retention.

3. High-efficiency power system

Integrated motor and gearbox drive

Low energy consumption, high stability, and easy maintenance.

4. Multiple discharge methods available

• Pneumatic flap valve
• Manual ball valve
• Butterfly valve

Can be selected according to material viscosity and powder fluidity.

5. Optional liquid spraying system

For powders requiring the addition of a small amount of liquid, a spray gun system can be selected to achieve a more uniform wet mixing process.

Applications of Ribbon Mixer

Powder mixing:

• various resin powders
• building material powders
• coating pigments and fillers
• food additive powders
• fillers, additives, calcium carbonate, etc.

Powder-liquid mixing:

• pre-mixing of white emulsion powder
• mixing of insecticides and feed additives
• mixing of powder materials in hot melt glue formula

Other processes:

• high-temperature material mixing (with jacket option)
• mixing of easily airborne powders (with dust removal port option)
• mixing of materials prone to clumping (with optional blades or crushing device)

Advantages of Ribbon Mixer

1. High mixing uniformity (CV≤5%)
2. High efficiency
3. Simple operation and easy maintenance
4. Low cost and excellent value for money
5. Customizable
