VH Powder Mixers in Use
All the VH Powder Mixers are extremely efficient, and can be used with either granular materials or powders of virtually any mesh size. To operate you simply open one of the top inlets and fill the chamber approximately two thirds full, before selecting a running time and turning the machine on. Once started, the mixer will turn off automatically at the end of the running time. Alternatively, you can set the machine to run until switched of manually.
The advantages of using a powder mixer go beyond just the obvious speed benefit. Thanks to their specially designed asymmetric mixing tubes and multidimensional movement pattern, the VH mixers ensure that the powder they are holding is evenly dispersed within the steel mixing tubes throughout the duration of the mixing process. This gives the sort of reliable results that are difficult to achieve with manual mixing. By eliminating the dead spots that could otherwise result in pockets of poorly mixed materials, the VH Powder Mixers safeguard the nutritional or chemical efficacy of the products you manufacture.
