This horizontal mixer operates on a three-dimensional mixing mechanism. The motor drives the main shaft, rotating multiple layers of paddles arranged in opposite directions. The upper paddles force materials downward, creating a tumbling convection; the middle layers generate intense shear forces to break agglomerates; and the bottom paddles push materials axially, enabling a continuous circulation cycle. This synergistic action ensures that particles of varying sizes and specific gravities, such as light bran and heavy mineral premixes, are uniformly combined within a short cycle (typically 4-8 minutes). The optional liquid spraying system integrates seamlessly during this process.
Our factory primarily offers Pig Feed Paddle Mixers made of carbon steel and stainless steel. Carbon steel is economical, durable, and high-strength, suitable for conventional dry feeds; stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, suitable for feeds with high hygiene requirements, containing additives, or with slightly moist feed.
Carbon Steel: Carbon steel is the standard economic configuration for pig feed paddle mixers. Made from high-quality wear-resistant carbon steel plates, it boasts high structural strength and impact resistance, capable of withstanding long-term mixing and friction from conventional feed ingredients such as corn, soybean meal, and bran. Carbon steel models are more cost-effective and offer excellent value, suitable for small to medium-sized pig farms and feed processing plants with moderate hygiene requirements, primarily mixing ordinary powders and pellets.
Stainless Steel: 304/316 stainless steel models prioritize hygiene, corrosion resistance, and durability. All parts in contact with materials are made of food-grade stainless steel, with a smooth, easy-to-clean surface that does not rust or contaminate feed. Suitable for feed processing scenarios with high hygiene requirements, mixing feeds containing trace elements/premixes/wet feeds. Stainless steel is acid and alkali resistant, corrosion resistant, and has a longer service life.

The Pig Feed Paddle Mixer is suitable for large-scale pig farms, small and medium-sized feed processing plants, and breeding cooperatives. It can quickly mix raw materials such as corn, soybean meal, and premixes to meet the feed formulation needs of piglets, finishing pigs, and sows at all stages.
Large-scale feed processing plants: In large feed production enterprises, the pig feed paddle mixer is a core production piece of equipment used for the batch preparation of complete compound feed. Its high-speed mixing capacity can meet the production needs of 10-50 tons per hour, and its automated control system enables precise formula switching.
Pig farm self-mixing: Modern pig farms are usually equipped with self-mixing systems, where the paddle mixer enables low-cost nutritional regulation. Farms can flexibly adjust the formula according to the growth stage of the pigs and add functional additives. The equipment supports a liquid addition module, which can mix oils to improve palatability.
Specialty feed production lines: For high-end feeds such as creep feed and nursery feed, the paddle mixer protects the activity of heat-sensitive additives through a gentle mixing mode. Its low-residue design avoids batch-to-batch cross-contamination.
Feed R&D Center: Small paddle mixers (50-500L) are commonly used as formulation R&D platforms in research institutions and feed companies. By simulating production conditions, they quickly verify the effects of new raw materials and additives, and optimize mixing time and process parameters.
Yes, it supports the simultaneous addition of water and other liquid raw materials, oils, molasses, and liquid vitamins. The equipment uses an atomizing spray system to evenly spray liquids onto flowing dry feed. Multiple layers of counter-directional paddles simultaneously perform shearing, convection, and diffusion during the mixing process, ensuring that liquid and solid raw materials are fully integrated within 3-5 minutes, avoiding clumping or uneven moisture content. The mixed feed has uniform moisture content and consistent nutrient distribution, meeting the nutritional needs of pigs at all growth stages. The equipment's inner walls and paddles feature an anti-stick design, and a heating jacket can be optionally added to assist in moisture regulation, adapting to different climates and process requirements.
To formulate the best pig feed that promotes faster growth, it is necessary to scientifically control three aspects: raw material ratio, nutritional balance, and mixing uniformity. First, based on the different stages of piglets, finishing pigs, and sows, energy feed, protein feed, minerals, vitamins, and trace elements are formulated to ensure comprehensive nutrition and good palatability. Second, a pig feed paddle mixer is used to thoroughly mix the feed within 8–20 minutes, ensuring that trace additives do not separate and that the nutrition of each batch of feed is consistent, avoiding localized over- or under-nutrition. Simultaneously, the particle size, moisture content, and freshness of the raw materials are controlled to reduce mold and waste. Combined with timed and quantitative feeding, clean drinking water, and a suitable environment, this ensures good digestion and absorption, rapid growth, and a low feed conversion ratio for pigs.

Yes. Our paddle mixer is equipped with a high-pressure atomizing spray system that can uniformly add liquids (water, oil, molasses, liquid vitamins) during the mixing cycle. The powerful paddles ensure the liquid is thoroughly absorbed by the dry ingredients within 3-5 minutes, preventing clumping and ensuring consistent moisture content across the batch.
The standard mixing time ranges from 8 to 20 minutes, depending on the specific raw material characteristics (particle size, density, moisture). For most conventional pig feed formulations, a cycle of 8-12 minutes is sufficient to achieve a uniformity coefficient (CV) of ≤ 5%. The time can be flexibly adjusted via the control panel.
Selecting the correct model depends on your required batch production capacity. For instance, if you need to produce 1 ton of feed per batch, the WZL-2 model (volume: 2m³, capacity: 600-1000kg) would be a suitable choice. We recommend consulting with our engineers who can analyze your production goals, raw material density, and available installation space to provide a tailored recommendation.
