The plow mixer is often used in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries for mixing and saturating powder products with liquid media in order to obtain a high-quality mixture.

High intensity and quality of mixing, stirring
Short mixing time and a high productivity
Guaranteed repeatability and reproducibility of the product batches
Gentle handling of the product due to the mixing device's special plows
A large number of options to choose from to fit a specific product type
Air Purge Seals

Plow-shaped mixers are utilized in the production of seasonings, the confectionery industry, and applications requiring starch saturation. They also find use in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, where it is essential to achieve a uniform mixture of components across various fractions in a batch or portion of a product.

Plow-shaped mixers allow you to process powder products and carry out the following technological processes:

*saturation with liquid media*	*granulation*	*applying coating*	*mixing different fractions*
saturation of soy protein, starch	pharmaceutical agglomerates	fat coated pellets, animal feed	homogenization of powder mixtures

Advantages:

Pneumatic valves for product supply and unloading.
Special air seals for the shaft and bearings.
Hygienic design, internal surfaces ground to Ra<2 µm.
Large sectional hatches for service and cleaning.
A special mixing device with specifically shaped plows that create a “fluidized layer” inside the container when the product particles are suspended under the influence of vortex flows.
The presence of choppers/knife heads for breaking lumps when adding liquid media.

The basic version and operating principle

It comprises a cylindrical horizontal drum on a supporting structure, inside of which a mixing shaft with plows and a powerful electric drive is installed. The shape of the plows follows the shape of the working container; they rotate fairly close to the walls of the mixer. When the shaft rotates, the components are mixed along a complex path from the walls to the axis of the drum. The components/mixture moves from plow to plow along the axis of the shaft, changing the trajectory of their movement. Their peripheral speed and geometric shape are coordinated to move the product against centrifugal force while maintaining axial direction. Liquid media are supplied to the installation using special heads (spray/rotary), the installation is equipped with a filter, the cartridge of which is selected and ordered additionally depending on the type of product.

The control system is selected by the customer additionally based on the desired degree of process automation. The unit is equipped with special Air Purge Seals, which require purified air from an external source. Compressed air is also required for the pneumatic product loading and unloading valves.
