Orangewworks Mixer Tank With Load Cells 500 LTR

• Blending liquid and semi-liquid food products such as sauces, dressings, and beverages.
• Mixing powders into liquids to create slurries or suspensions in food production.
• Agitating ingredients during heating or cooling processes to ensure even temperature distribution.
• Holding and dispensing prepared ingredients in a controlled manner.
• Used in dairy, confectionery, and prepared meals sectors for various mixing tasks.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 100 litres up to several thousand litres; this unit is specified at 500 litres.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Mixing mechanism

Commonly features an agitator or stirrer, which can vary in design (e.g., propeller, anchor, paddle) depending on the product viscosity.

Load cells

Integrated load cells provide precise weight measurement, essential for accurate batching and inventory control.

Power supply

Typically requires a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK, for the mixer motor.

Temperature control

Many mixer tanks of this type include jackets for heating or cooling, though this is not specified for this particular unit.

Ancillary equipment

Often includes control panels, inlet/outlet valves, and cleaning-in-place (CIP) connections.

• What are the benefits of a mixer tank with load cells?

  Load cells enable precise ingredient dosing, accurate batch control, and real-time inventory monitoring, reducing waste and ensuring product consistency.

• Can this mixer handle viscous products?

• Is this unit suitable for heating or cooling applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for a stainless steel mixer tank?

• What certifications should I look for with used food processing equipment?

• Can the mixer speed be adjusted?

Food processing mixers and processors are valued for their durability and reliability when sourced used. Buyers typically prioritize machines with clear maintenance histories and robust construction. Key considerations include motor condition, bowl or chamber integrity, and compatibility with existing production lines. These units generally perform well across multiple applications, from batch mixing to food preparation. Stainless steel components and established brands tend to command buyer confidence in the secondhand market.
