What We Offer

Our ribbon blenders come in two distinct styles. One is a center bottom discharge, by far the most popular and efficient option. The second style is an end discharge, used when a customer needs to discharge the product at the end of the machine rather than in the center. All models have a counter-current flow pattern that keeps the materials blended at a uniform height during the operation. Our well-designed blenders are powerful and are easy to load and unload.

The ribbon blender line from AIM Blending Technologies, Inc. runs from a 5 cu. ft. blender up to a 500 cu ft. version. Horsepower can run up to 150 HP, and each machine is sized and constructed based on the bulk density and special features of the customer's product. This ensures you get the performance you need for the products you produce. Plus, our designs focus on high levels of sanitation and safety while requiring only low levels of maintenance.

 

 

Call our sales team or ribbon mixer consultants to discuss your needs, our designs, and the extra quality you get when you AIM for the best. Sample blends are welcome.

Showroom Blenders

Ribbon Blender

We’re proud to have produced the showroom blending machines for two of the nation's largest nutraceutical manufacturers. Each company selected a 350 cu. ft. blender for their showroom. One opted for a low bacteria/mirror finish on both the inside and outside, including the frame and motor mount. Both companies are exceptionally pleased with their real "live production" showrooms and use them for customer tours.
