Mixing Solutions
The Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer is used for dry mixing and wet mixing for granular and powder material. The paddle design ensures high mixing action with uniform and homogenous distribution of important nutrients, vitamins, and minerals in the pellet mixture.
This mixer is used for the incorporation of different powder and granular ingredients, with or without the addition of liquid in food, premix, pet food, aqua feed, and animal feed production.
Improve the quality of your product while shortening your mixing time with the Twin Shaft Paddle Mixer. This versatile mixer offers optional replaceable and adjustable paddle angles, and is easy to clean thanks to pre-assembled spray nozzles with compressed air for pipe maintenance.
Why Choose CPM:
- Protect product quality with short mixing time and low shear from the twin paddle design.
- Deliver consistent results with high mixing efficiency and homogeneity (C.V. 3%–5%).
- Enhance hygiene thanks to optimized paddle-to-wall gap design.
- Minimize waste with large double “bomb” doors for low-residue discharge.
- Reliable and flexible transmission via V-belt, with optional direct drive and gearbox system.
- Easy liquid addition and cleaning with optional pre-installed spray nozzles and compressed air cleaning system.
- Support ingredient versatility with a loading grate for solid or semi-solid additions during mixing.
- Customizable performance with optional adjustable, replaceable paddles.
- Durable and adaptable construction in mild steel or optional double-walled stainless steel for material-contact surfaces.
Coating Solutions
CPM’s coating systems are designed to efficiently apply liquid ingredients—up to 30% inclusion—to pet food, fish feed, and livestock feed. These ingredients are absorbed either by penetrating the product’s pores or coating its surface, depending on the application. This process ensures precise, even distribution of critical additives that enhance both nutritional value and product appeal.
Whether you’re boosting palatability, improving shelf life, or enhancing the nutritional profile of your feed, CPM coating technology delivers the consistency and efficiency manufacturers need.
Why Choose CPM:
- Enhance nutritional content by precisely applying oils, vitamins, enzymes, and other sensitive ingredients post-extrusion.
- Boost palatability to improve taste appeal and encourage repeat consumption.
- Extend shelf life with even coating coverage that supports better preservation.
- Maximize product value by upgrading standard kibbles into premium offerings.
- Drive profitability through value-added processing that increases market appeal.
- Ensure coating consistency with advanced technology that delivers uniform coverage across every batch.
