Ploughshare mixer to be innovated and developed in foodstuff industry




Food is the most important part in our every people’s life. Bakery, spice seasoning, milk powder, flour and nutrition is what we need in daily life. Food safety is highly concered by goverment and every consumers. How to control the safety and what could influence it? Production is the first and preliminary part that every manufacturer shall take it into consideration. As for powder food, mixing is a key and final step before packing. So, the powder mixer has to be designed and manufactured to meet FDA and GMP requirement. Besides the normal rules in GMP requirement, Mixing Technology is developing and innovating better solutions for it. Firstly, we start from ploughshare mixer to be designed as shaft take out type.


In 2013, a food nutrition company Ghana found us to help them design a mixer solution for their new plant in China. Ghana is a leading global performance nutrition and ingredients group employing more than 5,800 people across 34 countries worldwide. In Europe, they use Italy brand ploughshare mixer
but they want to use chinese brand mixer in their china plant for localization. Cleaning and no contamination is the most important issue for Ghana and the project manager also want us to find a best solution for them to make mixer easy clean. Although it has cleanout door on the vessel of ploughshare mixer, it can not clean every corner and part inside mixer and it is also takes long time
to dry the mixer which affect working efficiency in daily production.


Through discussion in engineer team, we finally try to design the shaft of mixer which can be pulled out for cleaning and fast drying by air. Vortex Mixing Technology has done many experiment and innovated. First, we design screw rod and driven by gear motor to make shaft pulled out. In order to avoid plough shovels collide choppers, we install sensor on shaft and it could be stop at the same
position every time. However, the motor must be with brake in order to make shaft stop smoothly and without error. Furthermore, the sensor switch will also be installed on screw rod when the shaft pulled out at fixed position. Second, the shaft connection shall be coupling type which must be strong and stable. Third, in order to save space, the screw rod will be placed on top not bottom.

After many times test, this easy clean design type ploughshare mixer can save 2/3 effort on cleaning and drying. The worker just need to pull the shaft out and to use water jet to clean shovels. Then, using air to make water dry. Not only saving much time and labors, but also the mixer can be cleaned thoroughly. This new type mixer will be developed in more area like pharmaceutical and cosmetics. We believe that it will have a good market in near future and will be welcomed by many Europe customers.

How to solve the problems which Ribbon mixer lutter and leakage

Ribbon Mixer running powder and some material leakage, often plagued everyone, today we come to discuss the equipment leak problem. Just slightly different depending on the material! Now for everyone to introduce a brief, horizontal real stone paint the production process, the other or the material production principle and we introduced in front of similar, hoping to give our customers help. The next year, Mingguang Ruisheng will be more efforts for the domestic production line of the ribbon mixer to make more independent research and development of equipment, we will give customers the best production of the best quality equipment. The basic components of the equipment before mixing are divided into: sand drying system, packing system, mixing system, batching system, powder material storage system with different properties, and its electronic control system and its auxiliary equipment. And so on. This component, in the use of the process, can be very effective to ensure that its finis
