Fluidizer Blenders
Fluidizer blenders are new on the American industrial scene. While the last 25 years have seen a steady increase in their use, most ribbon blender users remain unfamiliar with them.
These machines look like ribbon blenders on the outside, but inside, they are a large group of fluidizing blades moving in all directions. These blades produce a very nice counter-current flow while keeping the material at the blending chamber level. Plus, the blend speed is faster than what’s typical of ribbon blenders. If a gentler mixing action is desired, add a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). This addition allows the fluidizer to handle the product gently, like a paddle blender, but blend it much more quickly. In most applications, fluidizers mixers notably outperform both ribbon blenders and paddle-type blenders. Industrial mixer users simply aren’t as aware of them because of their relative recency, and most blender manufacturers don't have the technology or make them.
