      Most chemical processes involve mixing. As diverse as manufacturing is the mixing operations and requirements vary greatly. Mixing requirements include liquid blending, solid suspension, pigment dispersion, and these operations can be complicated by product viscosity. We offer a broad selection of industrial mixers for all your mixing needs. From small portable mixers and lab dispersers to low-speed agitators and high-speed dispersers through multi-shaft mixers and planetary mixers we offer mixers to handle the toughest mixing problems.

Horizontal Ribbon Mixers

Young Industries has been manufacturing Ribbon Mixers since their founding in 1947. We offer the most complete line of mixers available to industrial users. Models range from one-half cubic foot laboratory mixers to production units with batch capacity up to 1500 cubic feet. Young Industries has ASME U & UM certifications for those mixing applications that require high pressure bodies or heating/cooling jackets. Our ability to custom design and manufacture mixers makes us a leader in mixing of powders.

Young Industries Horizontal Mixers are in use throughout industry in a wide variety of process applications. These mixers provide fast, thorough and accurate blending of dry, paste and liquid ingredients, including: chemicals, plastics, drugs, foods, insecticides, fertilizers, cosmetics, adhesives, pigments, and numerous other products.

Many of the Mixers are purchased based on the quality and uniformity of product blend that our mixers are able to achieve. The robust body and agitator design assures many years of service life for complete customer satisfaction. Our mixers have earned a reputation for being manufactured of the highest quality while offering long life with virtually maintenance-free operation.

These have a single agitator which is the most important part of the mixer. All agitator types have at least one thing in common; the outer ribbon/paddle conveys material towards the discharge and the inner ribbon/paddle conveys material away from the discharge. Young offers four standard agitator types:

DOUBLE RIBBON AGITATORS

Two spiral ribbons are supported from the mixer shaft. The outside ribbons direct the flow toward the outlet, usually in the center. The inner ribbons direct the flow in an opposing direction away from the outlet.
This results in multiple mixing actions, the ribbons cut through the ingredients radially setting up a tumbling action. The difference in pitch direction, from the outer to inner ribbons, carries the product back and forth, end-to-end of the mixer. Turbulence at the ends and between the outer and inner ribbons, aids in the rapid mixing process.
The double ribbon agitator is widely used because it rapidly blends, without damaging ingredients of different characteristics such as size, weight and shape. Additives as small as 1% are distributed and mixed throughout the blend.

MULTI-PITCH DOUBLE RIBBON AGITATORS

The Multi-pitch agitator has two outer ribbons and a single inner ribbon. For every pitch of the outer ribbon, there are three pitches of the inner ribbon. This design produces an intense dynamic mixing action. The Multi-pitch agitator can typically blend products having different characteristics in size, weight and shape to a uniform blend.Additives less than 1% are disturbed and mixed throughout in less than 10 minutes. The Multi-pitch agitator is proven to provide the most efficient mixing of powders in the least amount of time.
