Used Industrial Mixers & Blenders — What We Carry

SIGMA Process Equipment sources and sells used industrial mixers and blenders for chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, and cosmetics manufacturing. Our inventory in this category is deliberately lean — we prioritise quality over breadth. If we do not have your exact specification in stock, we source on request through our supplier network. Submit your RFQ and we will respond within 48 hours.}

Used Ribbon Blenders

A used ribbon blender is the workhorse of dry powder and granule blending. The ribbon mixer working principle: counter-rotating inner and outer helical ribbons inside a horizontal U-trough create opposing axial flows that mix cohesive and free-flowing powders uniformly in 10–20 minutes per batch, from 50 L to 30,000 L. We carry — or can source — used ribbon blender for sale units in SS 304, SS 316L, and carbon steel. Used double ribbon blender configurations and second hand ribbon blender units from API pharmaceutical and food manufacturing plants are regularly available. A ribbon blender second hand unit sourced from an OSD or nutraceutical line is a cost-effective alternative to new. A used ribbon mixer for sale with intact ribbons and functioning drive is quoted with inspection photos.

Used Mixing Tanks with Agitators

We stock used mixing tanks — jacketed and unjacketed vessels in stainless steel with top-entry agitators. A used stainless steel mixing tank with agitator covers the majority of liquid mixing, dissolution, and blending duties in chemical and food plants. We also carry used mixing tanks with agitators in larger capacities for continuous-process installations, and used stainless steel mixing tanks for sale without agitators for customers fitting their own drive assemblies. Buyers looking for used mixing tanks for sale or second hand stainless steel mixing tanks from pharmaceutical or food plant decommissions will find the most options in our sourced-on-request service — contact us with your required capacity and finish. Used mixing vessels are inspected for shell integrity, jacket (if fitted), agitator seal, and drive condition.}

Used Homogenizers

A homogenizer used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics manufacturing reduces particle size and produces stable emulsions that conventional mixing cannot achieve. We stock vacuum emulsifier mixers — combined high-shear homogenizer and mixing vessel units — suitable for creams, ointments, lotions, and food emulsions. Used milk homogenizer for sale units in SS 316L, suitable for dairy and food processing, are sourced on request.}

Used V Blenders

Used v blenders — twin-shell or V-cone blenders — are the standard batch blending machine for free-flowing pharmaceutical powders and granules. The tumbling action is gentle, making V blenders preferred where shear would damage particles or active ingredients. Blender used in pharmaceutical industry applications commonly specify V blenders for final blend steps before tablet compression. Available on request.}

Mixers Used in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Mixers used in pharmaceutical industry applications span a wide range: ribbon blenders for dry granulation feed, planetary mixer in pharmaceutical industry for wet granulation, high-shear granulators for pelletisation, and homogenizers for topical formulations. Used industrial mixing equipment from pharmaceutical plant decommissions is verified against GMP service records where available.}

Key Buying Considerations

• Capacity & batch size — specify working volume and fill ratio (ribbon blenders typically fill to 60–75% capacity).
• Material of construction — SS 316L for pharma and food-contact duty; SS 304 for general chemical; carbon steel for non-contact applications.
• Mixing duty — dry powder, wet granulation, liquid-liquid, or emulsion; determines agitator type and required shear level.
• Drive & power — confirm available electrical supply (Hz, voltage, kW) and required shaft speed.
