Mezclador de arado: The Ultimate Batch Mixing Solution for Precision & Efficiency
Botek machinery’s industrial ploughshare mixer is engineered for demanding applications where precision, speed, and repeatability are non-negotiable. Leveraging advanced fluidized-bed mixing technology, it consistently delivers homogeneous blends in just 30–180 seconds—even with ingredients of drastically different densities or particle sizes. Whether you’re processing powders, gránulos, or pastes, our mixer ensures exceptional batch-to-batch consistency, minimal product degradation, and virtually zero cross-contamination.
How It Works: Engineered for Performance
The ploughshare mixer operates using a horizontally mounted, cylindrical drum with a centrally mounted shaft equipped with specially designed plough-shaped mixing tools. As the shaft rotates, these tools create a three-dimensional, turbulent yet gentle material flow that ensures every particle is actively engaged. This dynamic motion eliminates dead zones, prevents segregation, and enables rapid, uniform mixing. Optional high-speed choppers can be integrated to break down agglomerates or support wet granulation and coating processes.
Advantages
1.Rapid Mixing Cycles: Achieve complete homogeneity in as little as 30 seconds, dramatically increasing your production throughput.
2.Gentle Product Handling: The optimized tool geometry and controlled motion protect fragile particles and coatings from damage or abrasion.
3.Superior Cleaning & Accessibility: Designed with large, quick-access doors and Clean-in-Place (PIC) options to minimize downtime between batches and meet strict hygiene standards.
4.Versatile Process Capabilities: A single machine can perform mixing, liquid addition, granulation, coating, and even vacuum drying—saving space and capital investment.
5.Robust & Low-Maintenance Design: Built with heavy-duty construction, accessible drive components, and wear-resistant materials to ensure reliable, long-term operation with minimal maintenance.
6.Fully Customizable: Available in capacities from 100L to 12,000L+, with material options including carbon steel, wear-resistant steel, or AISI 304/316L stainless steel. Explosion-proof (ATEX) and GMP-compliant designs are available.

ploughshare mixer FAQS
A ploughshare mixer is a high-efficiency batch mixer that uses specially shaped plough-like tools mounted on a rotating shaft to create intense yet gentle three-dimensional mixing action. Unlike ribbon blenders that primarily create horizontal movement or paddle mixers with limited vertical motion, ploughshare mixers generate true fluidized mixing through centrifugal force, making them significantly faster and more efficient for difficult-to-mix materials with varying densities and particle sizes.
Our ploughshare mixers typically achieve complete homogeneity in 30-180 seconds, depending on material characteristics and batch size. This rapid mixing cycle is 5-10 times faster than conventional ribbon blenders, significantly increasing production throughput while reducing energy consumption per batch.
These mixers excel with a wide range of materials including:
Dry powders with significant density differences (up to 1:100,000 ratio)
Fragile granules and coated particles requiring gentle handling
Materials requiring liquid addition and dispersion
Products needing simultaneous mixing and size reduction
Heat-sensitive materials (with jacketed cooling options)
Sí, absolutely. Our mixers can be equipped with:
Liquid spray systems for uniform dispersion
High-speed choppers for agglomerate breakdown and controlled granulation
Vacuum systems for drying during or after mixing
Heating/cooling jackets for temperature control
We offer pharmaceutical-grade ploughshare mixers with:
Polished 304 or 316L stainless steel construction
PIC (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Steam-in-Place) sistemas
Sanitary quick-release clamps and seals
Liso, crevice-free surfaces meeting FDA and GMP requirements
Validatable cleaning procedures
