Ribbon impellers are designed for mixing and heat transfer in high bulk density solids, such as grains, powders and soils.
The reversed double helix design promotes multi directional fluid flow, resulting in improved heat transfer and mixing with reduced residence time.
Ribbon impellers may be installed in a stand-alone ribbon blender or incorporated into a holding tank or silo.
Standard Features
- Diameter: 200 mm ~ 2+ m
- Material: Stainless Steel 316
- Applications: Mixing and heat transfer in high density fluids and solid such as pastes, slurries, grains and powders
JM Engineering impellers can be customised to suit all mixing applications. If the options you require are not listed below, please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Configuration OptionsRibbon impellers are supplied in a variety of mounting options to cater for various applications. These options include:
- Single or Double Helix
- Welded Blades or Bolt-on Blades
Finishing OptionsJM Engineering can provide a range of finishing options for all shafts and impellers. This ensures a long, trouble free life in a variety of environmental conditions. Select from our standard range of coating systems, or we can adhere to your own specifications. Standard options include:
- Rubber Lined – Shafts and impellers may be coated in butyl rubber for highly abrasive mixing applications. This prolongs the life of the wetted end and assists in corrosion prevention.
- Polished – Shafts and impellers can be electro-polished for a high quality, mirror finish. This may be required in hygenic applications such as pharmaceutical and food manufacturing.
