VERTICAL MIXING IN LÖDIGE MACHINES

LÖDIGE vertical mixers offer a space saving alternative to our well-established horizontal mixers. The vertical mixers are particularly advantageous because they are easily accessible, easy to clean and take up less space on site. Good mixing quality and short mixing times are self-evident.

They are mainly used in the cosmetics, food, pharmaceutical and plastics industries. They are ideal for applications such as the granulation of tablet formulations in the pharmaceutical industry or the production of face powder in the cosmetics industry. They are also ideal for mixing and processing medium to high viscosity compounds and various plastic mixes.

THE MIXING PROCESS IN A VERTICAL LÖDIGE MIXER

During the mixing process, the product is lifted and circulated by a mixing impeller rotating close to the bottom of the vertical drum, ensuring fast and efficient mixing. The addition of liquids and the use of choppers are also possible in our LÖDIGE machines. Furthermore, the mixing drum can be equipped with a temperature control jacket for heating or cooling the product.

LÖDIGE vertical mixers can process powders as well as granules or pasty products. Depending on the machine type, the machine drive is located above or below the mixing drum.
