A new Munson Ribbon Blender, designated as model HD-6-1/2-15 SS, is capable of blending bulk solid materials up to 14.16 m³, effectively accommodating both low and high liquid percentages.
Featuring a split double-helical agitator, this design includes outer and inner blades that move materials in opposite directions, achieving uniformity in batches typically within 5 to 10 minutes.
Constructed with a one-piece, welded design and robust wall thickness along with reinforced end panels, the unit allows the outer blades to operate within 1.6 to 3.2 mm of the vessel wall, significantly reducing residual waste and cleaning time after discharge.
To facilitate access for cleaning and inspection, the blender is equipped with a hinged lid and a removable safety-interlocked grate as standard features.
Powered by a 111.9 kW motor, the flange-mounted agitator can be lifted vertically to simplify maintenance.
This stainless steel unit meets the standards required for industrial, pharmaceutical, and food applications, offering various finishes from clean mill to 2B, #4, and #7 mirror pharmaceutical finishes, as well as USDA Dairy standards.
Additional features include a bag dump station for minor ingredient additions, spray lines for liquid input, independently driven choppers or intensifiers, multiple discharge options, specialized drive configurations, heating/cooling jackets, and CIP manifolds. Other models are available with capacities ranging from 28 L to 33 m³.
