Industrial Mixers
Our reputation for building quality, robust, and proven processing equipment manifests itself in our comprehensive line of mixers and blenders. Regardless of the powder and bulk solids industry, S. Howes designs and builds quality into every mixer.
Mixers are available in a variety of features and configurations including ribbon, paddle, and custom agitators, continuous and batch operation, single and double shaft mixing action, heavy-duty capacities, sanitary designs, and jacketed units for thermal processing.
Mixers for Processing Powders & Bulk Solids
MIXING SYSTEMS
When mixing and other processes such as screening, size reduction, or transferring material downstream is necessary, our engineers will design a complete integrated system. And if simulation under various mixing conditions is required, our engineered-to-order lab mixers provide accurate, scale-up simulation prior to specifying or building production machines.
Laboratory testing in our Innovation Center may be required prior to designing and manufacturing mixers. Our testing equipment will be used to validate process and product requirements and the data will be used to build mixers and mixing systems.

FAQs for Mixing Equipment
What types of mixing equipment does S. Howes offer?
S. Howes provides a range of mixers including ribbon blenders, sanitary mixers, continuous mixers, thermal mixers (with heating/cooling), lab mixers, and heavy-duty industrial mixers. Each is engineered for specific material characteristics and production needs.
How do I choose the right mixer for my application?
Select based on your material (powder, slurry, paste), batch size, temperature needs, sanitation requirements, and throughput goals. Our engineers can help determine the best configuration based on these factors.
Can these mixers handle temperature-sensitive ingredients?
Yes. We offer mixers with integrated heating or cooling jackets and thermal control features to protect sensitive ingredients and maintain consistent product quality throughout the mixing process.
Are S. Howes mixers suitable for food and pharmaceutical applications?
Absolutely. We design mixers with sanitary finishes, clean-in-place (CIP) options, and smooth internal surfaces to meet strict hygiene and regulatory standards required for food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical processing.
Do you support small-scale and pilot production needs?
Yes. Our lab mixers and pilot-scale units are ideal for R&D, testing, and scale-up trials, allowing you to validate performance before transitioning to production-scale equipment.
What kind of support is available after purchase?
S. Howes provides ongoing support, including installation assistance, operator training, spare parts, retrofits, and maintenance guidance to help you maintain peak performance throughout the equipment’s lifecycle.
