Continuous mixers are designed to blend materials in a steady, uninterrupted flow, rather than in discrete batches. They are essential for large-scale manufacturing where consistent product quality and high throughput are critical. These mixers allow precise adjustment of feed rates, retention time, and mixing intensity, making them ideal for both powders and liquids in a wide range of industries.

Primary uses across industries

• In chemical manufacturing, continuous mixers homogenize powders, granules, and liquids in high-volume production lines.
• In pharmaceutical processing, they enable continuous blending of active ingredients and excipients for tablet and capsule manufacturing.
• In food production, continuous mixers blend ingredients for products such as sauces, beverages, and snack foods.
• In construction materials, they produce consistent mortar, concrete, and composite materials.
• In plastics compounding, they mix resins, additives, and colorants to meet precise product specifications.

Types of materials processed

• Powders, granules, and bulk solids
• Slurries and viscous pastes
• Liquid-liquid dispersions
• High-shear mixtures requiring intensive blending

Common materials of construction

• Stainless steel for food, pharmaceutical, and sanitary processes
• Carbon steel for general-purpose chemical and industrial mixing
• Specialty alloys for corrosive or abrasive materials
• Coated internals for sticky or reactive compounds

Key features of continuous mixers

• Non-stop operation for high-efficiency production
• Consistent blending with adjustable feed and retention times
• Scalable capacity for large-volume processes
