Mixers for dry bulk products
"Drunken barrel" 2D and 3D tumble mixers and V-blenders, 100–500 L, for food, pharmaceutical, chemical and laboratory use
Milberg mixers blend dry powders, granules and bulk ingredients for the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries and for laboratories. We make four types: the "Drunken barrel" tumble mixer (2D and 3D) and the V-blender, with a rotating body, and the ribbon blender and paddle mixer, with an agitator in a stationary body. Volumes are from 30 to 3,000 L, stainless steel, and a version for pharmaceutical production is available.

How to choose a mixer for bulk products
- Product flowability. Free-flowing powders and granules are gently mixed by the "Drunken barrel" and the V-blender — by tumbling, without an agitator. Caking and poorly flowing products and blends with liquid additives need a ribbon blender or a paddle mixer.
- Homogeneity and small additions. For premixes and small additions — the 3D "Drunken barrel": blend homogeneity can exceed 99.9%.
- Batch size. We make all types from 30 to 3,000 L; standard V-blenders are 100, 150, 200, 300 and 500 L.
- Production requirements. There is a dedicated version for pharmaceuticals. For frequent recipe changes, complete discharge and easy cleaning matter — the "Drunken barrel" and the V-blender have no agitators inside.
