Blend, heat, cool and add liquids in this rotary batch mixer

| By Chemical Engineering

This miniature rotary batch mixer blends bulk ingredients, adds liquids and achieves 100% batch uniformity in less than three minutes while heating or cooling the batch, according to the manufacturer. The model MX-1-SSJ mixer (photo) features an internal spray line for liquid additions, a discharge chute to direct the flow of discharged materials and an insulated, jacketed mixing drum that can be piped to an oil, steam or chiller system. Suitable for applications involving contamination-sensitive materials and frequent product changeovers, the 1-ft 3 (28 L) unit features 304 stainless-steel contact surfaces, wide spacing of internal flights for easy access, continuous polished welds and external removable seals. Construction with exotic alloys as well as carbon steel is also offered, as are configurations with CIP vessel-cleaning nozzles. — Munson Machinery Co., Utica, N.Y.
