Marion’s Momentum mixer: Cutting-edge fluidizing paddles turbocharge efficiency

The Momentum Series horizontal fluidized mixer

Firing Industries Ltd. supplies processing equipment by Marion Process Solutions, like the Momentum Series horizontal fluidized mixer, for instance. One of the features that makes this device so potent is its use of Marion’s namesake fluidizing paddles – which cut mixing time in two while lowering power costs per tonnage.

Ideal for delicate materials and food-processing tasks, this fluidized mixer by Marion offers fast mixing with high blending quality.

No need for air-pressure cleaners

The Momentum Series horizontal fluidized mixer is inherently easier to clean than competing mixers are, promoting superior drainage during cleaning while eliminating areas for residue buildup. The design of its fluidizing paddles offers quicker, fluidized mixing and sophisticated dual-directional movement that carefully handles such materials as bakery blends, nutraceuticals, and detergent powder. With the assistance of Firing Industries, Marion can provide food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade finishes and customization, to meet individual application- or industry-specific needs.

Other advantages of investing in the Momentum Series horizontal fluidized mixer:

• combined inward and outward mixing motion, reducing mixing times by half;
• a sanitary design that eliminates the requirement for air-pressure cleaners and minimizes maintenance needs and costs;
• optional features that automate and improve consistency and throughput, including load cells and liquid manifolds; and
• a fully customizable design that meets unique mixing needs and helps users to comply with industrial safety and sanitary standards.

Marion’s complete line of customization options gives users the flexibility to solve specific process challenges. Among the examples is a fluidizing agitator, which uses large paddles with dual-directional sweeping movements to create a fluidizing bed inside the mixer. Its design provides quick processing, low maintenance, and easy cleaning. Also available are innovative, durable SealGuard air-supply manifolds that prevent expensive seal damage – a simple yet effective component of preventive maintenance.

Customers can also install Marion high-speed choppers, which offer the ability to blend and disperse in one operation, with intensive speeds of up to 3,600 revolutions per minute. The iNCONTROL control system can bring this mixer up to the next level of performance.
