The Pegasus® Batch Mixer is a multifunctional mixer, suitable for almost any type of powder, grain, or free-flowing dry product. This compact double-axis mixer provides a homogeneous mixture quickly and effectively, without product damage.
Process:
Mixing & ProcessingThe Pegasus® Batch Mixer enables ultra-fast homogeneous mixing of products with different mass and composition. Dinnissen designed, tested and developed the Pegasus® Batch Mixer entirely in-house. The paddles and the mixing chamber are designed to minimize product damage and ensure optimal product mixing. Four or two hatches on the side of the machine (depending on the size of the mixer) ensure easy and hygienic cleaning of the system.
Mixing with a Pegasus® Batch Mixer is -as the name suggests- not a continuous process where the new product is supplied continuously and the mixed product is discharged. A predetermined quantity of product is added to the Pegasus® Batch Mixer and mixed through two paddle welds until the desired result.
In industries with strict hygiene requirements, easy cleaning between batches is very important. Therefore, the mixer can be equipped with extending shafts and/or wingdoors, for extra good accessibility. This allows the operator to thoroughly clean the entire mixer with minimal effort.
Read in our Customer Story how Holland Animal Feed replaced 18 mixers with one Pegasus® Batch Mixer with a mixing time of 40 seconds.
The Pegasus® Batch Mixer is a compact mixer capable of handling dry products and suitable for mixing sprayed-on liquids. The straight top of the Pegasus® Batch Mixer makes it easy to add and connect various components. The stainless-steel walls ensure minimal residue is left behind. Dinnissen offers several options to make the stainless steel as smooth as possible. An additional option with which the Pegasus® Batch Mixer can be supplied is bottom flaps that can open over the full length of the machine. In addition, the mixer can be equipped with roll-out shafts and/or wing doors.
The Dinnissen Pegasus® Batch Mixer consists of several components. The products to be mixed enter the mixing chamber through the top of the machine. The mixing chamber contains two shafts with paddles that rotate the product into a homogeneous mixture. The mixing shafts can be driven out of the chamber, making it easy to clean. When the Batch Mixer is finished, the double bottom valves at the bottom of the machine open, allowing the product to fall out of the mixing chamber and be transported further from there.
Generating a homogeneous blended mixture is a complicated process. Homogeneity is highly dependent on the mixing procedure used, the type of mixer, the mixing paddles and the shape of the mixing chamber. In addition, during mixing, the set rotation speed and the length of the mixing time are important
All Pegasus® Mixers are characterized by two counter-rotating paddle shafts. But Dinnissen also supplies a single-axis paddle mixer, which can be used as a pre-mixer. The single-axis paddle mixer is energy-efficient, cost-effective and efficient for light preliminary work when it comes to mixing dry substances.
