Overview

The GOFINE U-shaped ribbon blender is a highly efficient and versatile mixing equipment designed for the uniform blending of powdered materials in industries such as fertilizers, food, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. With its unique U-shaped trough structure and spiral agitator, this blender effectively solves the problems of uneven mixing, dead zones, and low efficiency commonly found in traditional mixing equipment. It is an indispensable core piece of equipment for production lines requiring high-precision mixing, especially in fertilizer production, where nutrient uniformity directly determines product quality. Whether you are producing organic fertilizers, compound fertilizers, or BB fertilizers, the U-shaped ribbon blender ensures stable and consistent mixing results, laying a solid foundation for your high-quality products.

Features

• Uniform Mixing & No Dead Corners: Reverse-rotating ribbons eliminate dead corners, achieving 99% mixing uniformity and solving nutrient segregation issues.

• High Efficiency & Energy-Saving: Optimized structure cuts mixing time by 30% and energy consumption by 20-25%, reducing operational costs.

• Strong Adaptability: Handles dry/wet powders, granules (moisture ≤30%), with 500L-50,000L capacity for diverse production scales.

• Stable & Durable: Anti-corrosion stainless/carbon steel trough, sealed design, ensuring over 10 years of reliable operation.

• Easy Operation & Maintenance: PLC control for auto/manual operation, detachable agitator and quick discharge valve reduce downtime.

Applications

The GOFINE U-Type Ribbon Mixer is widely used in multiple industries, especially in scenarios requiring high mixing quality and efficiency:

• Fertilizer Industry: Mixing of BB fertilizer raw materials, organic fertilizer (compost + additives), compound fertilizer powders, and urea-based fertilizer blends, ensuring uniform nutrient distribution.

• Food Industry: Blending of flour, seasonings, food additives, and grain products, meeting food hygiene standards with no material residue.

• Chemical Industry: Mixing of plastic particles, rubber powders, pigments, dyes, and chemical additives, with corrosion-resistant design for acidic/alkaline materials.

• Pharmaceutical Industry: Blending of pharmaceutical powders, excipients, and Chinese herbal medicine powders, ensuring high mixing precision and clean production.

Working Principle

The U-Type Ribbon Mixer operates based on the bidirectional conveying and stirring of the ribbon agitator, driven by a motor and reducer. When working:

1. Materials are fed into the U-shaped trough through a feeding device (such as a screw conveyor), and the trough provides a closed, stable mixing space.

2. The motor drives the dual-layer ribbon agitator to rotate—outer ribbons (with larger diameter) rotate clockwise, pushing materials from both ends of the trough to the center;

3. Inner ribbons (with smaller diameter) rotate counterclockwise, conveying materials from the center to both ends of the trough;

4. This continuous bidirectional material flow forms a strong turbulent mixing effect, making materials collide, shear, and blend fully in the trough;

5. After reaching the preset mixing time, the discharge valve at the bottom of the trough opens, and materials are completely discharged under the action of the ribbon agitator, with no residue left.

Application in Production Lines

As a core mixing equipment, the GOFINE U-Type Ribbon Mixer is seamlessly integrated into various production lines, especially in the fertilizer industry:

BB Fertilizer Production Line: Installed after the automatic batching machine, it mixes various compound fertilizer granules, urea, and micronutrients uniformly, ensuring each BB fertilizer granule has consistent nutrient content, which is a key link to improve product qualification rate.

Organic Fertilizer Production Line: Used to mix decomposed organic materials with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium additives and microbial agents, realizing uniform blending of organic matter and nutrients, and enhancing the fertilizer efficiency of finished products.

Compound Fertilizer Production Line: Applied in the pre-mixing stage of raw materials, it mixes powdered raw materials (such as urea powder, phosphate rock powder) uniformly before granulation, avoiding uneven granulation caused by material segregation and improving granule quality.
