Features

The Ribbon Blenders series feature strong, GMP compliant stainless steel construction combined with rugged motors and thoughtful engineering. This has resulted in the creation of a range of blending machines that are reliable, easy to clean, resistant to corrosion, and large enough to satisfy most industrial or manufacturing capacity requirements. The Ribbon Blenders also features mixing blades that are fitted into the tank with sealing devices at each end, allowing them to be used with liquid or semi-liquid materials, as well as dry powders, without leakage.

Offering the benefit of a carefully designed mixing mechanism that avoids dead spots and thoroughly combines the materials in the mixing tank, the Ribbon Blenders will produce a homogeneous end product that is suitable for demanding applications.

The stainless steel blades and mixing tanks make for simple cleaning to avoid cross-contamination between batches. The machines also have excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for use in many industrial and chemical processes without discolouring or reacting to caustic materials. With a wide selection of mixing capacities available, one or other of these mixers will meet almost any requirement in the food processing, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Ribbon Blenders in Use

Both the design of the Ribbon Blenders and their simple controls make them very straightforward machines to use. The cabinet has just a couple of buttons and status lights mounted on its left hand side, giving you all the control and information you need.

Filling and cleaning these mixers is made simple thanks to the large tank doors, while emptying the finished product from the tank is an undemanding task, thanks to the electronic discharge pump that does all the work for you. The tank also tilts on its axis, and can be kept at the angle you choose, which greatly simplifies using - and especially cleaning - the mixer.

There is no great effort needed to maintain the Ribbon Blenders either, as they are ruggedly built, and require only a regular lubrication schedule and check over to keep them in good working order.
