Food Powder Horizontal Ribbon Mixer 1500L 600-900kg Batch Blending Machine

This horizontal ribbon mixer is tailored for food powder production, combining a 1500L trough with a 600-900 kg batch for reliable, high-hygiene blending. Milk powder, flour, cocoa, coffee, soup bases and instant drink mixes are homogenised quickly and gently by the counter-flowing inner and outer ribbons, which fold the material rather than shear it. Full stainless steel construction, crevice-free welds and an easily removable discharge valve streamline cleaning and help producers satisfy food-safety and GMP-oriented requirements while maintaining continuous output.

The WLDH series ribbon mixer consists of a horizontal trough, a spiral agitating blade and a transmission unit. The spiral blade is generally made in two or three layers: the outer ribbon gathers material from both sides toward the centre, while the inner ribbon conveys it from the centre back to the two sides, so the two streams form a continuous convection mixing action. Because the trough can be manufactured with a circular section and fitted with a jacket, the same machine can also be used for reaction and drying when required. This unit is tuned to a 1500L trough and a 600-900 kg working batch, giving a compact, energy-efficient solution with a large loading coefficient.

• Double Ribbon Convection Principle: Counter-flowing inner and outer spiral ribbons lift material from the centre and fold it back along the trough walls, producing a fast, uniform blend without dead zones.
• Rapid, Gentle Mixing: Typical mixing time is only 3 to 8 minutes for a 600-900 kg batch, with a coefficient of variation (CV) that meets industrial uniformity requirements while protecting particle shape.
• Stainless Steel Construction: All material-contact parts are made of stainless steel with a smooth, crevice-free finish that resists corrosion, prevents cross-contamination and simplifies cleaning between recipes.
• Large Loading Coefficient: The horizontal trough design accepts a large fill ratio, so the machine reaches its rated capacity with a small footprint and low specific energy consumption per tonne.
• Easy Discharge and Maintenance: A durable discharge valve, generous inspection openings and a simple drive train make emptying, cleaning and routine servicing quick and straightforward.
• Flexible Process Integration: Optional jackets for heating, cooling or drying and a customized voltage (220V, 380V or 415V) let the machine fit a wide range of production lines.

The 1500L model serves milk powder, flour, cocoa, coffee, soup base and instant drink blending lines that demand hygiene and continuous output.

Thanks to its stainless steel contact parts and gentle convection action, this model is also suitable for mixing viscous or cohesive powders, for blending liquid and paste materials into dry powders, and for large-volume production where variety changes are infrequent. It is a reliable choice for food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, feed and new-material industries.

Changzhou Xiaoli Drying Equipment Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer of industrial drying, grinding, mixing, granulating and packaging machines applied in the food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and chemical industries. Established in 2014 and exporting more than 80% of its output to overseas markets, the company designs every machine around the principle of building touching products with the spirit of craftsmen. With in-house engineering, strict quality control and responsive after-sales service, our team helps customers select, install and maintain the right ribbon mixer for their process.

We offer full customization of capacity, voltage, jacket and discharge type, together with documentation and spare parts support. Our engineers are glad to advise on the correct configuration, recommend the optimal fill level and mixing time, and provide layout drawings for your production line before shipment.

• What is the batch capacity of this model? This model has a total volume of 1500L and a working capacity of 600-900 kg per batch, with an equipped power of 11-18.5 kW and a dead weight of about 1900 kg.
• What material are the contact parts made of? All material-contact parts are stainless steel, with SUS304 as standard and SUS316 available on request. The smooth interior meets GMP-oriented hygiene requirements and resists corrosion.
• How long does one mixing cycle take? A typical batch mixes in 3 to 8 minutes, reaching a coefficient of variation (CV) that satisfies common uniformity standards for powders and granules while keeping particle attrition low.
