Typical capacity

This specific unit is listed at 1300 litres. For this class of industrial paddle mixers, capacities commonly range from 500 litres up to 3000 litres, depending on the model and manufacturer.

Mixing mechanism

Twin shaft paddle design, which typically provides efficient and thorough mixing, particularly for viscous or delicate products.

Discharge method

End discharge, commonly found on units of this type, facilitating controlled emptying directly into subsequent processing equipment or containers.

Construction material

Typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food processing environments.

Power supply

Industrial units of this size commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Footprint

For a 1300-litre mixer, a significant floor area is typically required, including space for loading, discharge, and maintenance access. Buyers should consult the seller for exact dimensions.
