Plow Blenders
Plow blenders use wedge-like plows attached to a high-speed rotor to lift the product and create a weightless effect, helping negate problems caused by differences in particle size or density. They’re adept at mixing solids to solids, liquids to solids, and solids to liquids for a wide range of applications which makes them a great fit for producers making many products or those with many variations.
Features and Benefits
- High mixing efficiency: The plow-shaped blades create a fluidized motion that ensures even blending of materials, making plow blenders ideal for materials with varying particle sizes and densities.
- Customizable design: Our plow blenders can be customized to meet your specific requirements, including size, shape, and material of construction.
- Easy maintenance: Our plow blenders are designed to be easy to clean and maintain, with access to all critical components for routine inspections and maintenance.
- Durability and reliability: We use only the highest quality materials and components in our plow blenders, ensuring that they can withstand the rigors of continuous use and provide reliable performance for years to come.
Applications
Plow blenders are suitable for a wide range of food processing applications, including:
- Blending granular materials and powders for snack foods, baked goods, and cereals
- Mixing spices, seasonings, and powders for sauces, marinades, and dressings
- Homogenizing powders and granules for nutritional supplements and pet foods
- Combining dry ingredients for spice blends, dry mixes, and other food products
When to Use
Plow blenders are ideal for blending dry and semi-dry materials that are free-flowing, non-sticky, and non-cohesive. They are particularly effective for mixing materials with varying particle sizes and densities. Plow blenders are also suitable for materials that require gentle handling, such as fragile or heat-sensitive materials.
When Not to Use
Plow blenders are generally not suitable for materials that are cohesive, sticky, or have a tendency to pack or form clumps. They are also not recommended for materials that have high moisture content.
Integration and Support
Our engineers and fabricators will work with you to integrate your plow blenders seamlessly into your existing production line, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. We also offer ongoing support and maintenance services to ensure that your plow blender continues to operate at peak performance for years to come.
