Shufflemix 250 mixer aerator

• Blending various food ingredients, such as powders, liquids, and pastes.
• Aerating mixtures to achieve a lighter texture, common in confectionery and bakery.
• Homogenising sauces, dressings, and purees for consistent product quality.
• Mixing meat products with spices and additives.
• Preparing doughs and batters in bakery operations.

Typical capacity

For a '250' model, this typically refers to a working volume of around 250 litres, though buyers should confirm with the seller.

Power supply

Units of this industrial class commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Construction material

Food processing mixers are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Mixing mechanism

Mixer aerators commonly feature a high-shear mixing head or whisking elements to incorporate air and blend ingredients.

Footprint

The footprint for this class of equipment typically requires a dedicated area, often around 1.5m x 1.5m, plus operational space.

Control system

Basic models often have manual controls, while more advanced units may feature PLC-based systems for process automation.

• What is the difference between a mixer and a mixer aerator?

  A standard mixer primarily blends ingredients. A mixer aerator is specifically designed to incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a lighter, often foamier, product texture.

• Can this unit handle both liquid and viscous products?

• What maintenance is typically required for a Shufflemix 250?

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

• What safety features should I look for?

Lab mixers and stirrers hold strong reputations for reliability and durability. Buyers typically prioritise motor condition, speed range suitability, and vessel compatibility when purchasing used units. The equipment category is valued for consistent performance across research and production settings. Key strengths include robust construction, straightforward maintenance, and long operational lifespans. Corrosion resistance of wetted parts merits careful inspection. These devices remain dependable workhorses in pharmaceutical, biotech, and laboratory environments, offering solid value when sourced from reputable sellers with clear service histories.
