Ribbon Mixer 

Ribbon blenders are widely used for the effective mixing of a variety of substances that vary from dry powders, very viscous pastes, and creams to meat, and almost everything in between.  Most ribbon blenders are U-shaped troughs with one or multiple helical agitators or “ribbons” that blend, fold, and agitate products using both an axial and radial motion.  There can be variations on this design where the agitator could utilize paddles or plows for mixing.  Regardless of the agitator type, these devices are very difficult to clean due to the multiple surfaces, shadow areas, and close tolerances.
