CPE mixers are used in manufacture of food premix, herbs and spices, milk powder and infant formula, animal feed and fertilisers, plasters and powder coatings, and industrial powder additives.
CPE is the world leading designer and supplier of paddle mixing solutions with over 40 years of market experience.
Our equipment design has constantly evolved over the years to address various process requirements. Today, we have a world leading paddle mixing technology for sanitary mixing applications. We custom design mixers to suit your process needs.
Our mixers generate a high volume of voids for particles to change place in a manner and at a speed that the effect of gravity is neutralised and segregation cannot occur.
Particles are not forced into mixer walls, it is efficiently mixed without being exposed to shear or heat.
In a double rotor mixer, the two shafts of the mixer are counter rotating, which lifts the material up in the middle of the mixer (fluidized zone). The angular paddles provide an overlapping rotation and sweep the powders off of the bottom of the mixer (B).
In zone (A), particles have freedom of movement, which ensures homogeneous mix is achieved in a short time.
Why use CPE Paddle Mixers over Ribbon Blenders?
CPE mixers move particles faster and in a more organised manner.
The mixer create more voids (a higher volume) for particles to travel between.
Energy transfer to the particles is more streamlined, thus no heat or shear force is generated.
CPE mixers use less power to achieve uniform mixture in an even shorter time.
Mix quality is measured as the coefficient of variation (CV). CPE mixers can consistently achieve a CV of 5 in a short mixing time, while a Ribbon Blender will take significantly longer to achieve a CV of 5 (in some cases it never can achieve a CV of 5).
