The product name and key features list a 500L mixing capacity, while the specification table shows 1000L. This can indicate the difference between net (working) capacity and gross (vessel) volume. Please confirm with the supplier which number refers to effective batch (working) capacity. Many ribbon blenders are quoted with both gross and usable volumes.
The machine is designed for powders and powder blends including detergent powders, food powders, cosmetic powders, pharmaceutical powders, and some plastics powders. Check compatibility for moisture-sensitive or heat-sensitive materials and consult the supplier for applications requiring GMP or food-grade finishes.
The mixer is described as stainless steel, but the specific grade (e.g., SS304 or SS316) is not listed. SS304 is typical for general powder processing; SS316 is used when higher corrosion resistance is required. Confirm the grade with the seller if you need a specific material compliance.
The listed motor power is 7.5 kW. Voltage options shown are 220V or 380V — confirm the voltage, phase (single or three-phase), and local electrical requirements with the supplier or installer before purchase.
Mixing time depends on material properties and batch size. Typical homogeneous blending for powders is often between 5 and 20 minutes. Run a sample trial on your product to determine the optimal cycle time and speed.
The specification doesn't list the discharge type. Ribbon blenders commonly use a bottom discharge outlet with a butterfly valve, slide gate, or pneumatic valve. Confirm the standard discharge configuration and request alternative valve types if needed.
The listing states the machine is easy to operate but does not specify CIP. Standard ribbon blenders often require manual access for cleaning; CIP systems or special sanitary designs can usually be offered as options. Ask the supplier about CIP, access ports, and interior surface finish for your hygiene requirements.
The machine is used for food and pharmaceutical powders per the description, but pharmaceutical or food production often requires specific sanitary finishes, documentation, and certifications (GMP, FDA-compatible materials, surface finish Ra values). Confirm available hygienic options and compliance documentation with the manufacturer.
The specifications indicate that a video outgoing inspection and a machinery test report are provided. Ask the seller for additional documents you may need, such as manuals, wiring diagrams, material certificates, FAT reports, and any required compliance certificates.
Many suppliers offer custom options such as jacketed shells for heating/cooling, vacuum capability, discharge valve types, sanitary polishing, and automated controls. Contact the manufacturer to discuss available options and pricing for the features you require.
The listing does not detail safety features. Typical safety elements include emergency stop, motor overload protection, guarding around rotating parts, and interlocked access doors. Verify standard and optional safety features to meet your workplace and regulatory requirements.
Footprint and exact dimensions are not provided in the description. The unit weight is listed as 500 kg. Ask the supplier for dimensional drawings, anchoring/foundation needs, forklift or crane lifting points, and clearance requirements for maintenance and loading/unloading.
The listing does not specify warranty or after-sales terms. Typical offerings include a limited warranty period, availability of spare parts (motors, gears, seals), technical support, and commissioning services. Confirm warranty length, response times for service, and parts availability before purchase.
