Pugmill mixers are a type of continuous horizontal mixer used for mixing, conditioning, and granulating bulk solid materials of nearly all types. These industrial mixers can be used as a stand-alone agglomeration device, or as part of a larger agglomeration setup. However they are used, …
The pugmill mixer, also known as a pug mill or paddle mixer, is a type of horizontal industrial mixer used for processing bulk solid materials in conditioning, de-dusting, and granulation applications. This type of mixer is widely employed throughout various industries as a means of …
In the early stages of designing and developing a pelletizing plant, many questions often arise: what equipment will best suit my process; do I need a binder; how tall will my building have to be, and more. While this process prompts a host of questions, …
When looking to agglomerate material, many options are available. Agglomeration equipment manufacturers often specialize in a particular industry, type of agglomeration equipment, or category of agglomeration solutions. As the capabilities, offerings, and experience of each manufacturer vary significantly, finding the right agglomeration equipment provider requires …
Agglomeration (particle size enlargement) is widely used throughout the agriculture industry to minimize dust, improve handling and transportation characteristics, and enhance product performance – among other things. The practice offers benefits to everything from fertilizers and soil amendments, to animal feed products, and even pesticides. …
Variable Frequency Drives, or VFDs, are not a new technology, but only in recent decades have advancements in the field lowered many of the barriers associated with widespread VFD use, allowing their application in a range of settings. A recent market study anticipates that the …
The pugmill mixer, also commonly referred to as a paddle mixer or pug mill, is widely employed in a variety of processes transversing many industries. Flexibility in mixing, agglomerating, and conditioning make the capabilities of the pugmill mixer applicable to a wide range of bulk …
Dust collectors serve a critical need in the industrial process setting, helping processors to keep workers safe, comply with regulatory requirements, ensure product integrity, and promote equipment longevity. And while baghouses, electrostatic precipitators, and other dust collection systems provide these benefits, processors are often left …
This weekโs highlighted resource is a project profile on de-dusting fly ash with a pugmill mixer. Pug mills are widely used for conditioning fly ash – a dusty by-product of coal-fired power generation – into a more easily handled material that doesnโt become windblown upon …
This weekโs photo shows a pugmill mixer from the FEECO Innovation Center, where our team of process experts conditioned an iron-based material. Conditioning typically refers to the act of mixing a material; this may be to prepare it for pelletizing, to reduce issues associated with …
