General
The Premium Pulman Horizontal Ribbon Blender is thoughtfully designed for rapid blending of dry or wet ingredients. It features a ribbon or paddle mounted on a central shaft, rotating within a U-shaped trough to ensure thorough mixing. A bottom discharge valve enables fast and clean unloading. This mixer handles viscous additions like molasses (up to ~10%) with ease
Construction & Operation
- Built from thick steel plates with internal stiffeners for strength and stability.
- The shaft is supported by self-aligning bearings, with the ribbon angle finely tuned for ideal mixing performance
- Liquids are poured through a perforated tray above the blend, ensuring even distribution as they trickle down. Typical mixing cycles complete in 7–10 minutes
Key Features
- Ideal for cattle and poultry feed, delivering homogeneous mixes in dry or wet conditions
- No need for pre-heating or pre-mixing—liquids such as molasses can be added directly
- Rapid mixing: 6–8 minute cycles
- Fully dust-proof design with stuffing box seals on either side to protect bearings
- Bottom sliding discharge gate and inspection/cleaning access at the tips or sides
- Strong foundation ribs for structural support
Agitator Designs
- Paddle Type
- Vertical arms with paddles—great for coarse ingredients and pre-mixing
- Single Ribbon
- A single helical ribbon enables smooth, efficient mixing for medium-to-fine ingredients
- Double Ribbon
- Twin helical ribbons move material in opposing directions, delivering the fastest and most uniform melding
- Central Spiral Ribbon
- Combines outer ribbons (conveying material outward/inward) with a central spiral flight to maximize blending uniformity
Laboratory / Baby Models
- Compact versions in M.S. or S.S. construction.
- Ribbon or paddle agitators on shaft-supported bearings.
- Titled body for manual unloading; equipped with suitable motor/gearbox.
- Full-length discharge gate option available—ideal for R&D and pilot testing
Special Configurations
- Jacketed Mixers: U-troughs with jackets for heating (water, oil, steam)—perfect for oily or fatty blends like spices or batters
- Pneumatic Discharge Gates: Air-actuated gates enable faster filling and unloading cycles.
- Liquid / Molasses Mixers: Feeds liquids via perforated trays or spray nozzles—ideal for feed applications requiring molasses or binders
