3-A Authorized batch paddle mixer design with custom bag dump, custom covers, and our patented main shaft lip seal. Did we mention it's a custom machine? Ideal for mixing powdered soup, dehydrated vegetables, & other food seasonings!
At Marion Process Solutions, we take pride in being the only horizontal mixing and blending company that is 3-A authorized. We are committed to providing an efficient sanitary solution, with sanitary finishes and fits as well as 3-A certified incidental contact zones.
Marion’s paddle agitator is designed for gentle mixing of solids of dissimilar size, shape, density, and viscosity. Materials travel in a 3D figure-eight pattern, constantly pulling from the end of the mixer to the middle for consistent mixing of product. Our paddle agitators can work effectively down to 20% of rated capacity, and are available welded, bolted, or a combination of both depending on the application.
At Marion, we offer innovative and durable SealGuard™ air supply manifold technology to prevent costly seal damage. Acting as an insurance policy that ensures air pressure is on and flowing to the seals prior to mixing, it is a simple yet effective component of preventive maintenance that will ensure your industrial mixer is performing optimally.
Whether you are emptying bags, boxes, drums or manually dumping materials by hand into your mixer, eliminating material waste and dust pollution or contamination is critical. Marion Process Solutions offers bag dump hoods to prevent product loss, eliminate contamination, and offer dust control. Available in stainless steel or carbon steel designs, the hood contains integral safety grates, a vacuum port, and baffled air flow.
Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems are designed and installed to ensure efficient, automatic cleaning for each of our customer’s unique application and facility needs. Effective cleaning means minimizing cycle time, lowering chemical usage and reducing water and utility costs. Additional benefits include:
Marion Process Solutions believes that CIP should be a holistic approach. It begins with the foundational element of simplicity in design, and is coupled with the correct selection and layout of appropriate cleaning devices to achieve optimal results.
Staying competitive in today’s world requires intelligence in and on all fronts. That’s why Marion Process Solutions has invested in an expert team of talent to create intelligent solutions through smart controls. iNCONTROL™ is much more than a control system capability. It’s a toolbox of resources and knowledge that will take your machine to the next level of performance. Your smart resource from day one. At a minimum, all control packages include:
Custom is what we do, and our covers are no exception. Doors, inlets, dust collection vents, threaded temperature probes and pressure relief ports are just a few of the endless ways our covers can be configured to meet your needs. It all starts with safety and ergonomics. Hinged doors that provide full-width access can be counter balanced and/or counter weighted, as well as cylinder actuated for easy opening. The doors and safety grates located underneath are guarded by electrical interlock switches to prevent unsafe use.
Accurate batch sizes are a snap when utilizing integral load cells.
