When to choose
- You blend dry powders, granules or lightly wetted materials in batches
- You want a horizontal trough with top inlets and a bottom discharge
- Batch size is defined by trough volume rather than a tank shape

A horizontal trough mixer with a ribbon agitator for blending powders, granules and pastes.
What it does
Process role
A horizontal ribbon mixer turns a ribbon-style agitator inside a U-shaped trough. The ribbons move material in opposing directions along the trough so the batch is blended, and the charge is typically discharged through the bottom.
Configuration points
- Trough volume and working fill level
- Ribbon design and clearance to the trough wall
- Top inlet and bottom outlet layout
- Drive arrangement and shaft sealing method
- Contact material and surface finish for the product
Inputs to share
- Bulk density and particle characteristics
- Target batch size and charging method
- Dry powder and granule blending
- Adding small liquid amounts to bulk solids
