Processing — blending
Powder mixing
and blending systems.
Mixing is easy; staying mixed is engineering. Mixer geometry, fill level and discharge design decide whether the blend survives to the pack.
In brief
TLG builds batch powder mixers matched to the recipe: gentle tumble and paddle designs for friable and agglomerated products, higher-shear ribbons where dispersion demands it. Discharge and downstream transfer are designed against segregation, so the blend that leaves the mixer is the blend that reaches the bag.
In detail
How it works.
Every blend wants to un-mix: particles of different size and density segregate in every transfer after the mixer. The engineering answer is short, mass-flow paths from mixer to pack — which is why TLG designs mixing and its discharge as one problem, not two.
The blender photographed is a TLG build, installed and running — twin drives on a full-length paddle shaft, with the discharge beneath.
