The right mixer for the preparation of powdery, fragile or viscous foods
For the production of food various mixing tasks have to be solved. Therefore, various mixer designs are available:
HorizontalMixer

Construction
- Horizontal, cylindrical mixing hopper with mixing shaft and revolving mixing tools
Functional principle
- Revolving mixing tools distribute the product in both the circumferential and axial directions, thereby achieving an intensive mixing effect
Benefits
- Intensive mixing of the components
- Short mixing time
- Metering of liquids on the surface or under the product level
- Optional de-agglomerater
Applications
- Production of powder mixtures
- Metering of liquids
Cleaning
- Good access to the inner mixing area
- Maintenance-friendly construction and surfaces
- Quick-clean discharge valve
ScrewBeltMixer

Construction
- Vertical, cylindrical mixing hopper with
- rotating screw belt mixing tools
Functional principle
- The mixing tools convey the material near the hopper wall upwards; thereby causing the material in the middle of the hopper to flow downwards
Benefits
- The 3-dimensional mixing process results in a very homogeneous mixture
Applications
- Production of premixes composed of various flours and baking ingredients
Cleaning
- Inspection and cleaning opening for good access
ScrewMixer

Construction
- Vertical, cylindrical mixing hopper with conical outlet, centrally aligned conical mixing screw
Functional principle
- The mixing screw conveys the inner product upwards while the outer product flows downwards by gravity, thereby causing the product circulation
Benefits
- The final mixer in combination with a receiving hopper above a production line
- Complete discharge without residual product
Applications
- Mixing of various flours and baking mixes
Cleaning
- Inspection and maintenance door for easy access to the inner mixing area
ContainerMixer

Construction
- The mixer is composed of a mixing lid with integrated mixing tools. This, together with the docked container, forms the mixing chamber.
Functional principle
- All the raw materials in a recipe are collected in transportable containers and then docked to the mixing head of the ContainerMixer. When mixing, the container rotates in one direction and the mixing tools in the opposite direction. Addition of liquids is made through a hollow shaft.
Benefits
- Intensive, quick mixing of all components
- Mixing without product adhesion
- Extremely large filling-level range makes possible the production of the most varying of amounts and products with one mixer model size
- Ideal for frequently changing recipes
- Complete discharge without residual product
Applications
- Production of mixes from various raw materials, e.g. baking ingredients, spice mixes
Cleaning
- Mixing chamber and tools are easy to clean
- Container is cleaned separately from the mixer
PneumaticMixer

Construction
- Vertical, cylindrical mixing hopper with filter and fluidized-bed bottom.
Functional principle
- The chamber-wise supplied air intensively and gently fluidizes and mixes the raw materials. Through the selection of the air temperature, the mixture can also be cooled or heated. The addition of up to 10 % fats and other liquids is possible, because the mixer is additionally equipped with one or more nozzles for the addition of liquids.
Benefits
- Gentle product mixing
- Short mixing time with or without temperature charge
- No moving parts in the inner mixing chamber
- Can be used as source hopper for dense phase conveying, thereby separation-free discharge and conveying are possible
- Metering of liquids
- Optional de-agglomerater
Applications
- Mixing of coarse and fine bulk materials
- Mixing of baking ingredients
- Cappuccino mixes
Cleaning
- A very good cleanability is ensured through the large inspection and maintenance door and by the lack of inner mixing tools
ShearFlowMixer

Construction
- Vertical, cylindrical mixing hopper, in which shear rods are anchored. In the hopper rotates a shaft also equipped with shear rods. The mixing tools operate according to the rotor/stator principle.
Functional principle
- Continuous and intensive mixing of solids and liquids within shear gaps
Benefits
- Continuously operating mixer which can be matched to various mixing tasks
- Quick mixing
- Adjustable mixing time
Applications
- Production of doughs, suspensions and solutions
Cleaning
- Easy cleaning through mixer lid and two maintenance doors
