LCI kneaders are used for mixing powders and liquids to form a homogeneous wet mass, ideal for downstream processes requiring consistent moisture levels.
Dry ingredients are manually charged into the bowl. Liquid is added to the moving dry powder and mixed by the counter rotating twin shafts, producing a uniform wet mass. Once the desired mixture characteristics are achieved, the kneader bowl is tilted using the hand wheel (or via motor) and the product is discharged and collected for further processing.
