The Pegasus Continuous Mixer mixes sticky liquids with a high sugar content (syrups) with dry powders such as flakes, flour and wheatmeal. It can mix sugar-containing liquids with dry ingredients in a ratio of up to 75% by weight of the dry material. The mixer prevents ingredients from becoming extremely sticky, from caking or lumping. Mixing dry basic ingredients with a high percentage of sticky liquids presents a challenge in the food, feed, pharmaceutical and chemicals sectors. The mixing system complies with the criteria for hygiene and food safety and can be easily cleaned as the mixing shafts can be detached. The mixer allows to quickly and efficiently switch to other recipes. It can homogeneously mix a large number of dry basic ingredients, after which the mixture can be mixed in with a roughly similar quantity of sugar-containing sticky liquid in a second stage. The system still functions effectively even if the dry basic ingredients vary in terms of particle size, bulk density and flow characteristics.
