Mixers - Paste Mixing Machines

Frain Industries carries several types of mixers covering numerous process stages including comminution, mixing, drying, agglomeration, classification, weighing, and metering.  Additionally, mills are capable of aeration, deaeration, emulsification, general pre-milling, processing, homogenization, particle size reduction, paste mixing, vacuum mixing, and whipping.

The Frain engineering team can design a paste mixing solution based on your final product, volume, and integration requirements.  Contact us today to discuss you paste mixing needs.

• Horizontal Mixers / Blenders – Frain Industries carries several styles of industrial horizontal mixers with different types of agitation depending on your application. Roller bar agitator, single sigma blade agitator, and dual sigma blade agitator are some of the styles Frain carries.  Additional features such as jacketed mixing bowl, tilt discharge, dual end drive, and sliding gate discharges are also available.  Horizontal mixers are ideal for mixing a number of products including: breads, creams, dough, icing, marshmallow, pasta, pizza crust, pretzels, pastry dough, pet foods, stiff fillings, as well as many other products.

• Double Arm Mixers –   Primarily used in pasta and bread bakeries, double arm mixers produce soft doughs such as French bread, confectionery, sandwich bread, bread sticks, etc. These style mixers mix at high speed, and oxygenate the dough without heating it.

• Disperser Mixers –   Designed to incorporate powders into liquid and break down particle agglomerates to produce a fine dispersion.  There are different types of blade designs depending on your application including saw-tooth, high vane, cutter, and polypeller.

• Continuous Mixers – Ideal where a single product is mixed in large quantities.  The weighing, loading, mixing, and discharge steps take place simultaneously.

• High Shear Mixers – Applications include high speed particle size reduction, homogenization, emulsification, and solids size reduction.

• Three Roll Mills – Dispersion is achieved by the shear force generated between the rolls.

• Planetary Mixers – Ideal for low shear mixing and kneading viscous pastes.
