Vertical Ribbon Blender

Traxit Engineers Pvt Ltd has designed a Vertical Ribbon Blender. The company specialises in providing appropriate process engineering technology through specialized process machines. Traxit vertical ribbon blender consists of a vertical circular cylinder with a bottom cone. Inside is a single flight of ribbons, which moves the material from the bottom to the top. On reaching the top the material comes down by gravity; this vertical up and down motion gives good mixing and also there is no breakage of granules. As the equipment is vertical the discharge completes through a bottom discharge valve. Also as the material handled by the mixing element at any given time is limited, the installed power is less than the conventional mixers (horizontal ribbon blenders or bowl mixers as was used). This equipment for many applications can replace the Nauta mixer (cone screw mixer), which is complicated in design due to the special gearbox requirement. This vertical ribbon blender (with proper features) can be used as a dryer and also as an effective reactor.
The vertical ribbon blender is designed for use in case of the following specific requirements:

• Granules should not undergo reduction in size
• Mixing to be uniform
• Discharge should be easy and complete.
