Bulk Material Mixing System Produces Highly Homogenous Blends

http://www.nbe-inc.com/mix Designed specifically for fully automated introduction, transfer, mixing, and blending of multiple, sluggish materials; this NBE, integrated bulk material mixing system produces such homogenous blends that downstream production scrap is virtually eliminated. An NBE lift-and-seal gaylord dumper system, with a dust-tight, custom discharge hood introduces the bulk material to the transfer bin. An integrated agitator and vacuum pump transfer system supply material to the high-volume material mixer. Within the mixer, a 16-inch diameter auger mixes bulk material in a 17-inch diameter, 10-gauge mix tube. In-feed scoop blades at the base of the mixing auger, and broad-throw dispersion paddles at the top of the mixing auger ensure a homogenous and consistent bulk material blend supply to downstream processes.
