Designed for capacities between 5 and 98 cu. ft., NBE Quick Mixers can economically mix pellets, regrinds, and granular materials. Standard features include a vertical mixing auger with both a bottom scoop and dispersion plate to ensure homogenous blends, every time. On all capacities, the vertical tube and auger are removable for easy cleaning between ingredient or additive batches.
NBE Quick Mix systems arrive onsite ready for use. Standard features like prewired controls and tool-less components make start-up quick, while rugged construction and heavy-duty components ensure long term reliability.
NBE mixers are engineered to be configurable for specific application requirements. With a broad selection of design features and accessory components, our mixers can meet even the most demanding process and compliance requirements.
Personnel Platforms:
For mixers with optional gaylord discharge stands, a personnel platform allows operators to access the
elevated mixing vessel and provides a stable working space from which to control operations and conduct
cleaning or inspections.
304/316 Stainless Steel Construction:
In addition to carbon steel, 304 and 316 stainless steel construction is also available for Quick Mix units.
Product contact seams are continuous-welded and ground smooth.
Flex Screw Discharge Stand:
Mixers that discharge into a flexible screw conveyor may require a discharge stand to raise the height of
the mixer in order to affix an inlet boot. NBE discharge stands are constructed of heavy gauge steel, and
feature integrated footpads for proper mixer positioning.
Vacuum Line Distribution Box and Probes:
For process operations with local or centralized vacuum takeaway systems, NBE Quick mixers can be optionally
equipped with an integrated distribution box and probes.
Quick Mix covers are center-hinged for easy access to both sides of the mixing cone, and include proximity switches that stop the mixing cycle if the covers are opened to ensure operator safety.
Integrated heavy-duty fork pockets allow mixers to be transported to multiple process locations around the plant.
When handling semi-free flowing dry, bulk materials; the 60-degree hopper cone ensures continuous flow throughout the mixing cycle, as well as complete discharge once processing is complete.
A heavy-duty gearbox ensures both power and reliability. Output speed on standard gear reductions is fixed at 226 RPM.
High-strength mixer body construction aids in stable material loading and processing. Product contact seams are sealed with continuous welds that are ground smooth to remove irregularities.
Placed at the top of the screw, the dispersion paddle distributes material across the surface of the mixture during the processing cycle. This action helps quickly create a homogenous ingredient blend.
An innovative scoop-blade design draws material into the bottom of the auger, helping quickly integrate ingredients and improve flow of materials. The Quick Mix auger also features tool-less removal, aiding cleanout and changeover between batches.
The Quick Mix auger tube is removable without the use of tools, enabling efficient changeover and complete cleanout. A tube skirt increases material density near the auger intake, while spreading mixed material from above to the sides of the hopper. This encourages a more complete mixture in less time.
Standard controls packages include prewired start/stop switch, spring-wound 60-minute timer, and safety switches, mounted in a NEMA 12 enclosure.
