Continuous mixing improvements for high-capacity production
Technological developments make continuous mixing a better option than batch mixing, especially so for high-volume production. High throughput continuous mixers are becoming the best sellers in this equipment category.
The more, the better
Over the years, advances in continuous mixing have been developed to improve ingredient metering, process controls and include specialized mixer designs and ultra-high capacity mixers. Compared to batch mixing, such technological developments make continuous mixing a better option than batch mixing, especially so for high-volume production.
