  • MACHINE DESCRIPTION

The Blender is designed to mix/Blend different ingredients in dry Granules/power form in Blender Bin. Blender bin consisting of unmixed dry mass is clamped in bin holding arm .Bin holding arm is fixed on moving trolley. Trolley can be move up and down with the help of Hydraulic cylinder with chain and pulley arrangement. Hydraulic cylinders, Trolley, chain and pulley arrangement is housed inside the mast. Mast base is fixed on the floor and top is supported on the ceiling. Safety railing of SS304 with interlock is provided for safety of the operator. All the gaskets are of food grade silicone.

Product mass in the Bin can be rotated at preset RPM and preset time for the following:

  • RPM setting
  • Soft start
  • Soft stop.

Complete equipment can be divided in the following sub sections:

  • Mast consisting of Hydraulic cylinder, Guide Rollers and chain-pulley assembly.
  • Bin Holding arm.
  • Main panel consisting of Hydraulic power pack and hydraulic circuit, Electrical power panel, PLC (optional) and VFD.
