Vertical Mixing & Drying Machine
A compact industrial unit that combines blending and moisture removal with controlled heating and airflow—ideal when plastic powders or granules need both uniform mixing and drying before downstream extrusion or molding.
- Uniform blending for pellets, flakes, regrind, and additives.
- Integrated heating and airflow for reliable moisture control.
- Compact vertical footprint saves valuable factory floor space.
Vertical Mixing and Drying Machine Features
Integrated mixing and drying with precise control, durable construction, and efficient use of floor space and energy.
-
Compact Vertical Design
The vertical tank and conical bottom support efficient mixing and clean discharge while reducing the required floor space.
-

Commonly built with corrosion-resistant stainless steel to withstand demanding industrial environments.
-
Integrated Mixing & Drying
Combines blending, controlled heating, and moisture removal in one unit to simplify handling and improve throughput.
-
Control System
Set and monitor parameters like temperature, mixing speed, and time for repeatable results.
-
Safety Protection
Emergency stop and safety interlocks help protect operators and reduce operational risk.
-
Optional Accessories
Options like spray nozzles for liquid dosing or vacuum support for deaeration can be added.
-
Consistent Output
Uniform mixing and stable moisture control help deliver repeatable material quality for downstream processing.
-
Energy-Efficient Operation
Optimized heating and airflow help reduce unnecessary energy use and support lower operating costs.
How Mixing and Drying Work in One Machine
A simple 3-step workflow that blends materials uniformly, removes moisture using heating and airflow, and discharges cleanly for the next process.
-
Step 1Material Feeding
Load powder, granules, pellets, or flakes into the vertical chamber—optional dosing supports stable batch control.
-
Step 2Circulating Mixing
The vertical screw mixing system circulates materials throughout the tank to achieve homogeneous blending of additives, masterbatch, and resins.
-
Step 3Heating, Drying & Discharge
Controlled heating with hot-air circulation removes moisture, then the conical bottom supports fast, clean discharge to downstream equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about vertical mixing, integrated drying, batch cycle times, and machine maintenance.
It’s suitable for many powders and granules, including plastic pellets/flakes, chemical compounds, and certain food or pharma powders. Tell us your material type and moisture level for confirmation.
Yes. The vertical mixing design supports consistent blending. We can recommend mixing speed/time based on bulk density and additive percentage.
Selection depends on batch size, target throughput, moisture content, and available installation space. Share your process details and we’ll propose a suitable configuration.
We support common industrial power standards and can customize for your region. Provide your voltage/frequency and site layout to confirm wiring and auxiliary equipment.
We recommend cleaning the chamber after production and following a routine inspection/lubrication plan. A maintenance guide and spare-parts list are available.
Yes. We offer remote or on-site commissioning options, operator training, and after-sales support with recommended spare parts for quick maintenance.
