MIXING

Ribbon and paddle mixers

The Rosal mixers are designed to be durable and require minimal maintenance.

They facilitate effective homogenization with various products in the animal feed and chemical industry, achieving high production efficiency in reduced mixing times.

Features

Ribbon mixer at Rosal production plant

Ribbon

Ribbon mixer

The rotor, machined and balanced both dynamically and statically, is equipped with two opposing belts or propellers, ensuring efficient and balanced performance.
 
The ribbon is supported at the ends by a double row roller system, providing stability and reducing friction.
 
In addition, it has a quick unloading system by means of a pneumatically operated slide lock.

Paddles

Single shaft paddle mixer

Rosal has a wide range of single shaft paddle mixers, from 50 up to 16,000 liters.

Unlike the ribbon mixer, the body of the paddle mixer is cylindrical, adapting to the path of the rotor along the entire vertical axis.

The signle shaft paddle mixer is designed with a bolted, adjustable and interchangeable paddle rotor, which allows for great versatility and adaptability in the mixing process.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does an industrial mixer work?

The mixer loads ingredients from the top, agitates them with an internal rotor (paddles or belts) and discharges them through a bottom gate after 3-5 minutes of mixing.

What level of homogeneity do our mixers achieve?

The Rosal ribbon and paddle mixers for animal feed achieve a coefficient of variation (CV) lower than 5%, which guarantees a homogeneous and constant mix, even in large volume batches.

What is the typical mixing time in a mixer?

The standard mixing time is approximately 4 minutes, although it may vary depending on the formula and ingredients used.

What material are the mixers made of?

The tanks are manufactured in AISI 316 stainless steel or carbon steel, with thicknesses ranging from 4 to 10 mm depending on the capacity of the equipment. The rotors are made of treated carbon steel for greater durability.

Can liquid be added during mixing?

Yes, the industrial mixers are prepared for the addition of vaporized liquids by means of integrated spraying systems, which makes it possible to enrich the mixture with oils, molasses or other additives.

How is the download performed?

Discharge is by means of a pneumatically operated, fully opening swing gate. It includes pneumatic cylinders, magnetic detectors and vibrator to ensure complete emptying.

What safety systems do these mixers incorporate?

They have stop sensors in inspection doors, motor consumption control, hermetic seal and protection against overheating in bearings by means of temperature probes.

What type of transmission do they incorporate?

Rosal ribbon and paddle mixers have direct drive to the drive shaft by means of hollow shaft reducers with shrink ring. This configuration minimizes possible mechanical losses, reduces maintenance and improves the energy efficiency of the system.

Can the mixer be adapted to different feed formulations?

Yes, our industrial mixers allow for speed and mixing time adjustments, among others, which makes it easier to work with different formulas, densities and types of ingredients.

What sequence do the mixers follow?
  1. Add macroingredients

  2. Add micro-ingredients

  3. Dry blending 

  4. Add fat

  5. Add liquids

  6. Wet mix

What maintenance is required?
  • Weekly: dusting and visual inspection.
  • Every 4 months: check oil levels and operation of safety devices.
  • Every 6 months: greasing of bearings.
  • Every 10 years: complete replacement of bearings and overhaul of gearboxes.
