PerMix Paddle Mixer

UK-centric features:

• Gentle mixing: Ideal for delicate pharmaceutical or food blends that cannot tolerate aggressive shear.
• Liquid spray systems: Precise dosing of binders, flavours, or moisture during mixing.
• Jacketed shells: Heating or cooling jackets to control temperatures in reaction or process blends.
• Sanitary finishes / CIP-ready design: Fully polished internals for easy cleaning in food or pharma lines.

Typical UK / EU applications:

• Spice blends, premixes, botanical powders, enzyme blends.
• Fine chemical blends in regulated plants.
• Additive mixing in adhesive or coating plants.

Some mixes demand more energy or better uplift — the twin-shaft (fluidised zone) design handles them.

• High velocity mixing: Throws materials into a pseudo fluid zone, reducing mixing time and improving uniformity even with particle size variation.
• Suitable for dense blends: Handles multi-component mixes that resist uniform blending.
• Dual shafts: Allow more flexible control of shear and residence time.

For vertical integration, or when factory floor space is at a premium.

• Compact vertical footprint: Ideal for retrofit or tight lines.
• Gentle paddle motion: Suited for delicate materials.
• Full discharge capability: Ensures no dead zones.
• Vacuum/drying versions: Flexible for process lines in UK/EU plants.

PerMix UK offers robust construction options tailored to your process and regulatory needs:

• 304 / 316 Stainless Steel: For general food and pharma use.
• Hastelloy / Titanium: For aggressive chemical reagents.
• Hardox or abrasion liners: For heavy, abrasive materials.
• Surface treatments: Electropolish, mirror finishes to minimise contamination.
• Seals, bearings & purge systems: Designed for ATEX zones and safe handling of dust.

To accommodate complex processes, we provide:

• Vacuum or pressure loading systems: Handle powders without dust spillage.
• Tote, bulk bag or silo interfaces: Flexible loading options.
• Bottom valves: Butterfly, slide gate, or ball valves for controlled discharge.
• Tilt or pivoting vessels: Designed for sticky materials.
• Liquid injection systems: Spray bars and metering systems to introduce binders, solvents, or additives uniformly.

Critical for regulated operations (food, pharma):

• Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems: Internal spray nozzles allow full washdown without disassembly.
• Waterless CIP / dry cleaning: Options to conserve water or operate in cleanroom lines.
• Smooth welds & polished internals: Minimise residue and ease manual washdown.
• Removable internals: Allow inspection or manual cleaning when required.

PerMix paddle mixers support a wide array of core sectors:

• Food & Beverage: Culinary powders, seasoning blends, bakery supply lines.
• Pharmaceuticals / Nutraceuticals: GMP-friendly designs, careful control of moisture, precise blending.
• Specialty Chemicals & Catalyst Blends: Inert, reactive, or filamentous materials.
• Adhesives, Sealants & Construction Additives: Accurate blending of fillers, binders, and resins.
