Yinda Ribbon Blender For Your Powder processing Task：

Yinda ribbon blender is a heavy-duty and lightweight blender that is used to mix or blend powdered components.

Ribbon blenders offer multi-purpose uses in the industries of food, cosmetics, plastic, chemical, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and many other industires. It requires little maintenance even after constant product changeovers.

This guide contains useful information about ribbon blenders. Read this guide to comprehensive knowledge about ribbon blenders.

1. Design of Ribbon Blender:

The ribbon mixer has a U-shaped horizontal tank with a double spiral ribbon agitator. The ribbon agitator moves around the horizontal trough. The double agitator shaft is placed in the middle of the tank.. It has a set of outer and inner helical or spiral ribbons. That’s why it is also called a ‘’double helical ribbon agitator’’. There is a gap of approximately 3-6 mm between the outer edge and internal wall of the agitator. However, this gap varies depending upon the application of ribbon blenders.

A motor, gearbox, and couplings drive ribbon agitator. The motor, gearbox, couplings, and bearing products are mounted on a supporting frame. It requires a power of 3 to 12 kW/m3 for working. However, the amount of power depends on the material used. The endplates are bolted or welded to the container where the agitator shaft exits the blender. At this point, the ribbon blender has sealing arrangements to ensure that no material could leave the container to the outside and vice versa.

On the top cover of the ribbon blender, nozzles or feed-hoppers are mounted.  These nozzles and feeders connect to the charging material in the ribbon blender. You can maintain and clean the inside of the blender via an inlet valve. The blender container has an external jacket for several applications that require continuous heating and cooling of the material.

Generally, the container must be filled up to 40-70% with the materials to ensure smooth blending. Make sure that you have filled it till the mark of the outer ribbon’s tip. The ribbon agitator operates at a speed of approximately 100 meters per minute. However, the operation speed depends on the application and size of the blender. The outer ribbon of the agitator brings material from the outer edges to the central position. The inner ribbon of the agitator brings material from center to ends.

This rotational movement of the ribbons creates radial movements. The outer and inner ribbons move with a different peripheral speed that creates an axial movement of ribbons along the horizontal axis. The radial and counter-current axial movements ensure a homogenous blending of materials in it. The mixing efficiency of ribbon blenders depends on the size of feeding particles and bulk density of it. The smaller the size is, the faster the blending speeds are.

A discharge valve is present at the bottom of the manger. Usually, slide-gate, butterfly, flush bottom, spherical, and other types of valves are easily fitted with the discharge valve. They can be operated either manually or pneumatically.  You can release materials from the discharge valve after blending.  The rotation of the ribbon agitator supports this process. If you are dealing with fragile material, a paddle agitator is the best alternative to the ribbon agitator. It has both forward and reverse paddles instead of ribbon. It is positioned to move materials in lateral and radial directions.

2. Pieces of equipment of Ribbon Blender:

The heavy-duty ribbon blender has the following pieces of equipment to ensure uniform and smooth blending:

1# Blending vessel:

The blending vessel is the largest part of this machine. It has a U-shaped body that can hold the material in it. It also has two ribbons that move synergistically to ensure a uniform blending.

2# Discharge door:

The discharge door has two valves that control the discharging process. These valves provide excellent sealant properties. The valves prevent the entry of washing material in it. Usually, valves are electric, pneumatic, or manual.

3# Top cover:

The ribbon blender has a heavy-duty top cover that fits tightly. The top cover is easily opened or closed. It also provides sufficient space for the cleaning process.

4# Rotating shaft:

The speed of the rotating shaft is not the same for all ribbon blenders. The average speed of the rotating shaft is 80-100 meters per minute. The high speed of the rotating shaft ensures efficient mixing.

5# Agitator:

It is a helical part that blends smoothly to generate reliable results.

6# Control panel:

The ribbon blender has a wired control panel. It is attached to the main body. The control panel has a main power button, safety limitation button, emergency stop button, and speed control button.

3. Optional accessories for Ribbon Blender:

Besides the above-mentioned pieces of equipment, the ribbon blender requires the following optional accessories to improve its functionality.

• Use a spraying system for the liquid injection process
• Use high-efficiency explosion-proof motors and variable speed drives with the control panel
• Use wear-resistant plates for corrosive or rubbing products
• Use full or partial loading with paddles
• Use end discharge with continuous ribbon agitators
• Interrupted ribbons for high density materials
• Use suitable baffled jackets for cooling and heating systems
• Use diaphragm valves, slide gate valve, and butterfly valve for rapid discharge
• Use lump breaks for size reduction
• Use cover openings for inspection or cleaning windows

4. Application of Ribbon Blender:

A ribbon blender can work in batch and continuous manner. Usually, a batch type ribbon blender has operation capacities up to 50 m3. A ribbon blender is widely used for mixing, coating, heating, cooling, and blending purposes. Following are the common applications of ribbon blenders:

•  A ribbon blendercan mix large quantities of dry solids at a very fast rate.
• It offers a smooth mixing of dry powder with liquids.
• It can efficiently mix cosmetics powders, chemicals, and drugs in bulk form.
• It lubricates dry granules in bulk quantities.
• It constantly coats the solid particles with the liquid phase to make formulations.

5. How do Yinda Ribbon Blenders work?

https://youtu.be/ZuqDNaEkZ0g

Ribbon blenders work on the principle of convective mixing and diffusion mixing. The macro movement of large portions of ingredients is called convective mixing. When the solid or dried particles are turned over alog the horizontal axis of the agitator, convective mixing occurs. The micro mixing of individual particles is called diffusion mixing. It happens when the particles in front of the ribbon move in one direction. These two mechanisms ensure the mixing and blending of ingredients.

The ribbon blender has a U-shaped trough that offers uniform mixing of ingredients. Its horizontal agitator has erected inner and outer helical ribbons. The material moves in a specific axial and radial flow pattern with these ribbons. However, always choose a well-equipped ribbon blender as per your specifications. The multi-purpose ribbon blenders drastically reduce the capital cost and increase the lead time.

6. Double Spiral Ribbon Blenders Drawing:

Ribbon mixers consist of a U-shaped horizontal mixing tank with double ribbon spiral blades.

An external ribbon moves the powder from the ends to the centre and an internal ribbon moves the powder from the centre to the ends. This counter-current action results in uneven mixing.

8. Multiple Cover Openings For Option：

There are different types of openings on the barrel cover of the ribbon blender to meet different working conditions.

Depending on the function of the openings, manholes, wash doors, inlets, exhausts, and dust ports can be installed, and the openings can be in the form of flanged standard openings or quick openings with covers.

100L-500L ribbon blender can be equipped with a fully open cover, which is easy to clean the inside of the ribbon blender.

9. Excellent Discharge Device:

The ribbon blender is commonly equipped with a pneumatic curved surface flap valve, which perfectly fits the curved surface of the barrel when the valve is closed.

During the mixing process, no dead space is left over, so the mixture is more uniform.

10. Highlight the benefits of ribbon blender:

• Consume relatively less mixing time
• High-quality blade and cover make it durable
• Heavy-duty stainless steel body
• Provide high output and require little maintenance
• Give more efficient and smooth results

11. Some common do’s for Ribbon Blender:

A ribbon blender is the first choice for blending requirements. Here is a list of some common do’s you should follow to ensure smooth working of the system.

• Always choose a proper location for ribbon blenders to ensure its sustainability.
• Always identify the accurate bulk density of the material according to the size of the ribbon mixer.
• Always fill 30-70% volume of the ribbon blender to generate and adequate contact between agitator and the product.
• Always use a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to stay away from onset torque during the process of blending.
• Always choose an interchangeable paddle agitator to ensure a fine-tune shear input.
• Always equip ribbon blender with a discharge extruder for viscous applications.

12. How to choose the right type of Ribbon Blender?

Follow these 5 key considerations before choosing the right type of ribbon blender.

1# Size & volume:

Choosing the right volume and size of the ribbon blender increases efficiency and reduce the time required to mix all ingredients. It optimizes the entire process and avoids a shutdown if something goes wrong.

2# Type of ribbon or agitator:

The ribbon blender has corkscrew-like metal blades for mixing all ingredients. The outer and inner helixes of the ribbon move the material in the opposite direction. It generates enough shear force to mix or blend all the ingredients. Choose a gentle agitator or paddle agitator for fragile ingredients. Likewise, two sets of agitators reduce the overall time.

3# Construction material of the blender:

A ribbon blender is made of both mild and heavy-duty stainless steel. The construction material of the blender directly influences the ingredients. Always choose a ribbon blender made up of stainless steel with special finishing for food materials.

4# Horsepower:

Always choose a motor with appropriate horsepower to ensure effective and efficient mixing. When you select a too powerful motor, it puts extra expense on you. Likewise, selecting low-power motor underestimates the workload.

5# Discharge gate:

A drop bottom discharge gate is used to release the material instantly. A pneumatic slide gate is suitable for batching or bagging process. A multiple slide gate offers a faster discharge rate.

13. After-service of Ribbon Blenders:

What Is A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Ribbon blender machine

A ribbon blender is a high-tech machine that consisting of a horizontally u-shaped trough. It also has a revolving specially engineered double-helical manufactured ribbon agitator.

Ribbon blenders use a tried-and-true agitator design that ensures a triple blending action for quick and effective blending.

The ribbons’ measurements and arrangement are carefully calibrated to ensure that material moves freely within the containers. This helps avoid dead spots and allowing for quick product outflow.

The ribbon blender’s designs might include;

• Tensile strength
• Corrosion-resistance
• Vacuum input
• Outflow arrangements
• Customized shaft sealing
• Thermal jackets

Ribbon blenders are produced in stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316, and mild steel fabrication in sizes ranging from 100 to 8000 liters.

What Are The Applications Of A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Ribbon blenders are among the highly adaptable, cost-effective, and widely used solids content blenders in a wide range of industries.

Examples of industries that use Ribbon Blender Machines include:

• Food
• Pharmaceuticals
• Agricultural products
• Polymer blends

Most materials and light extracts can be mixed using ribbon blenders. The anterior and posterior ribbons work together to deliver efficient and cost-effective mixing.

Ribbon blenders are commonly used to mix dry grains and powders uniformly. A “U” tank and a shaft containing two sets of spiral ribbons, one inside another, make up the blender.

The proximal and distal ribbons are exactly aligned. The material contacts each corner of the trough during spinning and transmits radial and linear movement to the entire content to be blended.

What Are The Main Parts Of A Ribbon Blender Machine?

A ribbon blender, like all other tech equipment, is a multifunctional machine with multiple functional parts. These components work together to guarantee a productive working system and consistent mix output.

These parts include;

Parts of ribbon blender machine

Mixing Vessel

The mixing and combining of the components take place in this compartment of the Ribbon blender.

A U-shaped cylinder is the most common shape for this chamber.

This compartment is where the mixing occurs. You can blend solid or granular ingredients according to the complexity of your operation.

Top-flat Cover

According to the diameter of the troughs, a tight-fitting upper flat cover is provided to enclose the container while working.

The top cover is a completely open tray, allowing for easy maintenance and reloading of the materials.

Usually, the cover is composed of robust stainless steel that does not bend even when subjected to moderate stress.

Discharge Division

The discharge section is properly equipped with effective valves that regulate the discharge promptly.

Normally, the valves offer a tight seal to prevent spillage and material waste.

They also keep the operator’s workplace conditions cleaner and safer.

The valves’ operating methods might be mechanical, electrical, or pneumatic.

This type of operation allows for more accurate regulation of the discharge processes.

You can choose from several different valve types.

Rounded valves, knife gated valves, rotational ball valves, butterfly nozzles, and plum-blossom displacement valves are all options based on the source materials.

Rotating Shaft

The rotating shaft is the transverse passageway that revolves at high speed to keep the agitator moving efficiently and quickly.

The agitator rotation then causes the materials to be toppled over and outwardly conveyed inside the blender.

The shaft’s speed is usually variable. The outer Ribbon’s length determines it. The shaft normally rotates at a speed of 80–100 m/min.

This high speed is necessary for producing thorough and consistent blends in a short amount of time.

Agitator Element

Commonly, ribbon blender machines have two spiral agitators containing anterior and posterior ribbons.

These are suitable for solid and liquid operations, such as solidified and diluted slurry.

Control System

The control unit is critical to the mixer’s general functionality.

The primary power controller, safety restriction switches, a fuse specifically for the rotors, and an emergency halt switch are all included in the control system.

Drive Mechanism

This component is in charge of guaranteeing the machine’s efficient functioning.

However, the drive mechanism can be changed depending on; the type of materials, the starting technique, processes, power efficiency, and output speed.

The drive unit is made up of motors, and you can choose from various types.

Standard motors, adjustable speed motors, superior energy efficiency, renewable motors, as well as explosion resistance motors, are just but a few examples.

What Is The Working Principle Of A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Convection and dispersion are the two blending principles used by ribbon blenders.

The macro displacement of substantial sections of the material is known as convective blending.

When the materials are flipped over across the horizontal plane of the agitation system, convection blending ensues.

Diffusion blending, which happens when isolated particles are displaced relative to the adjacent particles, is the other form of Ribbon blending.

Diffusion happens in the ribbon blender whenever materials in front of the Ribbon are pushed in one orientation while neighboring partials remain stationary or lag.

Solids are mixed and blended when these two types of motion are combined.

Ribbon blending system

Which Features Should You Consider In Ribbon Blender Machine?

The selection of mixers you use for your operation will greatly impact how quickly and successfully your recipe comes together.

Here are a few aspects to consider when selecting a ribbon blender for your materials and method.

Size And Volume

When choosing a ribbon mixer, the capacity and appearance of the blender are by far the most significant factors to consider. They would vary depending on how much material you’re mixing and how quickly it needs to be blended.

The Ribbon And Agitator Type

Some components may perform much better in a blender with blades rather than ribbons as the agitator.

A good example are substances that contain a lot of fluids or are vulnerable to shearing.

When configuring a ribbon mixer or any form of a blender, choosing the proper Ribbon or agitator type is critical.

The type of agitator you’ll need will be determined by the components you’re using. Also the amount of time and the mixer profile you’ll use for mixing will determine agitator you choose.

Mixer Construction Materials And Finish

Most ribbon blenders are made from stainless steel.

The building materials will be determined by the blended components and how those substances will be utilized.

When working with food-grade substances, the blender should be made of stainless steel with special coatings that make it easy to clean and disinfect.

If the contents are corrosive, stainless steel might be a better option, as milder steel would be dissolved over time by the substances.

Your ingredients or procedure may require other metals or finishes. These finishes may not be required if your products are not vulnerable to foodborne diseases.

Discharge Gate

When configuring your Ribbon Blender Machine, consider how your contents leave the blender. The best ribbon mixer will be determined in part by the processing duration and subsequent procedures.

Some operations may need a complete and quick shutdown. A full-length dropping underside delivery gate would be appropriate in this situation.

Other procedures may require a slower outflow or a firmer seal, in which case a slide-gate may be preferable.

Which Are The Various Types Of Ribbon Blender Machines?

There are several distinct types of blenders, the most common of which are:

Vertical Ribbon Blenders

Vertical ribbon blender

These are employed in small operations and comprise of a vertical rotor that lifts materials to the top and then drops back down.

It repeats the procedure to blend the components.

Horizontal Ribbon blender

Such blenders are generally mixers that comprise whips or blades connected to a lateral rotor.

Horizontal ribbon benders can typically have greater constant uniformity and short blending durations.

Horizontal ribbon blender

What Is The Difference Between Ribbon Blender Machine And A Paddle Mixer?

Compared to a paddle mixer, the mass output of blending duration is short in the ribbon mixer. It displays an excellent overall homogenization procedure with a short time and high efficiency.

The circular forces produced by the paddle blender are transverse, while the axial forces produced by the angled paddle mixer are longitudinal. Low viscosity fluids, mixtures, and dissolving solutions are suited for the paddle stirrer.

The ribbon mixer is a high-efficiency mixer commonly used to mix fluid or viscous ingredients with powdered and granular materials in applications such as;

• Food
• Livestock feed sectors/industries
• Pharmaceuticals
• Beauty products

Which Products Are Processed By A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Ribbon mixers are employed in the pharmacological industry to make polymer mixes, medicinal powders, and compound fillings.

Ribbon mixers are employed to make baby food, flavors, spices, dried food items, breakfast cereal products, cake mixtures, nutritional supplements, instant beverage mixes, and other goods in the foodservice processing sectors.

Other industrial products that are commonly combined in the Ribbon blender include:

• Animal Supplements
• Pet food
• Seeds for birds
• Beauty products
• Abrasives
• Herbicides as well as pesticides
• Powdered plastics
• Detergents for laundry
• Fertilizers
• Anti-inflammatories
• Gypsum
• Chemicals for cleaning

Are There Add-On Equipment For A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Ribbon Blender Machine

Yes. Additional equipment may be required for the ribbon blender, depending on the operation type.

The most typical access mechanisms for ribbon mixers are hatches on the roof of the blender, with the option to release the blender’s covering completely (tilting or slanting lid).

Some companies provide a ribbon extraction method that enables the entire Ribbon to be removed.

This is conceivable, increasing the expense and operational sophistication.

What Does A Ribbon Blender Machine Warranty Cover?

Warranty coverage for most Ribbon Blender Machines ranges from 1 year to 5 years, depending on the materials used in the machine’s construction.

Most manufacturers offer warranties covering any parts of the machine naturally damaged within the stipulated warranty period.

Ensuring high maintenance of the ribbon blender and regular servicing would guarantee maximum warranty coverage for the client.

How Do An IBC Bin Blender And Ribbon Blender Machine Compare?

IBC blender system

Ribbon blender machine

In the food handling sector, a Ribbon Mixer is a common application. Ribbon-shaped rotors and a U-shaped trough appear in a variety of models.

On the other hand, an Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) bin blender is a blender fixed with a container to make its operation more effective.

Although both of them are used for various blending applications, the IBC bin blender is mostly used for granules and powders.

In terms of support mechanism, the Ribbon Blender Machine has firm and rigid support. Conversely, the IBC bin blender is clamped to provide support to the machine.

Both machines, in their own respect offer sufficient blending.

Ribbon Blender Machine provides a triple mixing action while the IBC bin blending offers a 360 degree symmetrical mixing.

Also, the thorough blending can be attributed to the unique attributes of both machines.

For ribbon blending the countercurrent ribbon movement results to the thorough mixing. Conversely, the vigorous blending in the IBC bin blending machine is as a result of its irregular shape.

Notably, both type of blenders achieve homogenous blending within a short/limited time.

Lastly, we have a wide range of customization options for both our IBC bin blenders and ribbon blenders.

What Are The Benefits Of A Ribbon Mixing Machine?

Some advantages of the ribbon blenders include:

• Most ribbon blenders have an outside shell made of steel. It is deserving due to the high quality of the blade and cover.

The stability of the material is critical.

• Also, our ribbon blenders have a service life of over 20 years.
• Additionally, ribbon blender’s dual ribbon blender blades spin faster, resulting in more effective and homogeneous results after the operation.
• The blending operation is made faster and more efficient with triple mixing. Ribbon mixers with good sealing do not allow material to leak out.

As a result, the ribbon mixer is a low-cost item.

• Moreover, with the assistance of the one-sided installation, you can effortlessly maintain the ribbon mixer. You can get in touch with us if you have any questions about how to maintain a ribbon mixer.
• Nonetheless, the autonomous control center of the ribbon blender supports the machine’s functionality. Its system has comparatively minimal mixing time, and the control device can redo the process. There is a possibility of recombination.
• Lastly, the ribbon blender’s discharge is straightforward, and the mixer can be used in various ways. Ribbon mixer designs and sizes range from 5-25000 liters.

What Is The Difference Between Double Mixer And Ribbon Blender?

A double mixer needs less headspace than a Ribbon mixer because it is a moderate blender. Also, the Double Mixer has only one opening cover, which makes maintenance and servicing simple.

This mixer works on the free-flow principle, which is often used to gently mix free-flowing grains and particles.

A double mixer is preferable for combining 2 to 5 items.

Ribbon mixers, which are U-shaped, have a quick mixing duration and are very efficient.

Two interconnected cylinders are combined that continuously split and intermesh granular movements, resulting in 1 to 2 percent mix fluctuations.

Each of the cylinder legs does have its entry lid for reloading materials, maintenance, and inspections.

The pharmaceuticals, nutritional, culinary, and skincare products sectors find this mixer preferable because it can blend 2 to 10 substances.

How Can You Calculate The Ribbon Blender Machine Capacity?

Mixers are volumetric; this implies their dimensions are usually expressed in cubic feet. If the mixer is too packed or too empty, particles will not mix well (flow).

Thirty-five percent to 65 percent of total capacity is a reasonable range of efficacy.

The material’s flow properties will best determine the capacity limit of each substance combined in the mixer.

The operational capacity is commonly calculated as 50% of the entire volume of the mixer as a thumb rule.

For instance, if a mixer has a two ft3 real volume, the operational capacity is one ft3.

What Is The Capacity Range For A Ribbon Blender Machine?

Ribbon blender vessels come in various sizes. From 8 ounces for a portable or miniature mixer to 10 to 64 ounces for a regular mixer to 80 ounces for a heavy-performance mixer.

The determination of the capacity best suited for your application is at your convenience.

Frequent maintenance becomes even more critical for more complicated blenders (like those with a spray bar).

The blender’s operating and servicing handbook is the best source of information for establishing what management practices to perform.

What Materials Are Used To Make The Ribbon Mixer?

As a competent ribbon mixer supplier, our ribbon mixers can be constructed from an array of metals.

For example, carbon steel, 304 as well as 316L alloy steels, a weather-resistant steel, and so on.

The mixer is very durable thanks to its interoperable welded structure and dense, fully reinforced side panels.

When abrasive compounds are employed, wear and tear-resistant liner sheets can also be used. All exterior steel components, unlike the functional units, are coated with motor paints like enamel paints.

The ribbon mixer is a separate device that is riveted and welded together. The end panels have been reinforced completely.

All of these precautions make the tank exceedingly robust and stable, allowing the agitator oscillations and motion to be controlled.
