Laboratory Mixers
Young Industries offers a complete line of Laboratory Size Ribbon Mixers. The sizes range from ½ cubic foot to 5 cubic foot capacity. These mixers are offered with all the same features and options as our production size mixers. These Mixers are designed to have the same mixing efficiencies as the larger production size Ribbon mixers.
The small volume of these mixers makes them an excellent choice for small scale, or pilot plant operations. These mixers can be supplied as stationary units with support legs, or portable units complete with casters. The rugged design of these mixers assures long service life.

Double Ribbon Multi-Pitch
Used when mixing multi-ingredient batches with small percentage of materials, strict homogeneous mix is required, and/or mix time is critical.
Double Ribbon Standard
Used when a gentle mixing action is required and mixing time is not a factor.
Paddle
Used when a gentle mixing action is required and mixing time is not a factor.
Trowel
Used when mixing ingredients that contain shortening or other soft agglomerates.
Agitators
The agitator is the most important component of the mixer, and we offer several options. All agitator types have at least one thing in common; the outer ribbon/paddle conveys material towards the discharge and the inner ribbon/paddle conveys material away from the discharge.
