– the horizontal mixing process of the Bühler Sanimix is synonymous with an
unrivaled homogeneous product mix within extremely short mixing and discharge
times. Available in the form of a paddle- or chopper mixer, the Sanimix is optimally
equipped to handle both dry and specialty mixes. The unique geometry of the
mixing trough and tools ensures a consistent and repeatable mixing accuracy.
And needless to say that all this comes in the tried and true, rugged Bühler design
of sanitary stainless steel. Sanimix – mixing at the highest level.

7. THE BEST WAY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE IS TO CREATE IT.
—Peter F. Drucker
Why retire a workhorse that’s still doing the job?
Simply put, your old dryer may be costing you a bundle. In fact, today’s
Wenger dryer could save you enough in operating efficiency alone to cover the
replacement of your old dryer. Additionally, our new advanced dryer designs
give you less potential for cross-contamination and bacteria build-up; feature
new direct drive spreaders for level product bed and uniformity of final prod-
uct moisture; and afford quicker, easier inspection and cleaning.
Contact us now. With new concepts and fresh initiatives, we’re ready to help
you develop the product possibilities of the future.
Turning ideas into opportunities.
