High-performance drive control for mixer duty

Whether you produce baked goods or animal feed, our drives provide accurate speed and torque control for mixer applications, reducing energy consumption by avoiding excess motor load and operating only to the required process demand. Recipe handling via HMI or control-system integration enables repeatable torque/speed profiles and consistent batch quality.


Rapid response to torque transients, often driven by solids content and additive dosing, supports smooth mixing and stable operation. Compact hardware reduces footprint and installation cost, and maintenance-friendly features help minimize downtime during cleaning and servicing.

 

Designed for reliability and flexibility, our drives minimize downtime for cleaning and maintenance, helping you maintain high productivity. The result is a solution that combines efficiency, reliability, and performance to keep your operations running at their best.

Key benefits

Increase quality while reducing costs

<p>Our VSDs (ACS180, ACS380, ACS580) deliver precise speed and torque for consistent mixing across batches. Custom programs enable standalone operation, while the compact design saves space and reduces costs.</p>

Blockage prevention to avoid equipment damage

<p>ABB drives squeeze the maximum torque available from the motor in every range of speed. An accurate diagnostic helps avoid unexpected blockages and mechanical damage.</p>

Different level of cost and performance

<p>ABB drive portfolio can satisfy all customer demands: from domestic mixers up to big industrial solutions with different voltage range and protection class available.</p>

Plug-and-play connectivity with any system

<p>ABB drives integrate with major control systems via standard fieldbuses. Modbus RTU supports domestic use, while OPC UA over Profinet or Ethernet/IP enables SCADA and data integration. The CP600 HMI provides simple plug-and-play connectivity.</p>

Uncompromised energy efficiency and sustainability

<p>Up to 95% recyclable, ABB drives cut emissions by up to 50%. Ultra Low Harmonic technology with Power Factor Correction reduces energy waste and system sizing, supporting sustainability goals.</p>

Global service and predictive maintenance for peace of mind

<p>ABB service operates in over 100 countries. Our predictive maintenance, and the use of drive and motor sensor data gives visibility into mixer health, helping you prevent unplanned downtime.</p>
