Mixers
A.I.S. Powder Mixing Systems, powered by PerMix, are engineered to deliver consistent, homogeneous blending of powders, granules, flakes, and dry bulk solids. These mixers are designed to control segregation, mixing time, and energy input—while integrating seamlessly into complete ingredient handling and processing systems.

AIS integrates PerMix powder mixers with upstream feeding, conveying, and downstream discharge to deliver production-ready, scalable solutions for demanding industries.
Used extensively in food & beverage, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, plastics, battery materials, agriculture, and advanced manufacturing.
A powder mixer combines multiple dry ingredients into a uniform blend while managing variables that powders love to weaponize:
• Particle size differences
• Bulk density variation
• Segregation tendencies
• Cohesiveness or aeration
• Fragility or abrasiveness
PerMix powder mixers are engineered to overcome these behaviors mechanically—not statistically.
AIS integrates the full range of PerMix powder mixing technologies, selected based on material behavior, batch size, and process goals.
• Gentle, fluidized mixing action
• Excellent for fragile or segregative powders
• Short mixing times with low energy input
• Minimal particle degradation
• Ideal for food, chemicals, and specialty powders
A top choice when blend integrity matters more than brute force.
• Proven axial and radial mixing action
• Effective for free-flowing powders
• Cost-effective and versatile
• Suitable for batch blending and conditioning
The classic workhorse—simple, reliable, and still very relevant.
• High-intensity mechanical agitation
• Effective for cohesive or difficult materials
• Capable of liquid addition, coating, and agglomeration
• Optional choppers for deagglomeration
Used where powders resist cooperation or require active conditioning.
• Steady-state blending for continuous production
• Consistent output with compact footprint
• Ideal for extrusion, compounding, and high-throughput lines
Built for processes that never stop and don’t forgive drift.
PerMix builds exceptional mixers. AIS ensures they are fed correctly.
Powder mixers are integrated with:
• Gain-in-weight feeders
• Loss-in-weight feeders
• Bag dump stations
• Bulk bag unloaders
• Drum and tote dumpers
• Screw & auger conveyors (including Easy-Clean designs)
• Pneumatic conveying systems
Accurate feeding upstream is what makes uniform mixing downstream possible.
Many powder processes require controlled liquid introduction.
PerMix powder mixers integrated by AIS can include:
• Spray bars or atomizing nozzles
• Metered liquid dosing systems
• Pre-wetting and coating configurations
• Agglomeration and granulation setups
Liquid is added intentionally—not sprayed and hoped for.
Powder mixers are often cleaning bottlenecks. PerMix designs them to be manageable.
Easy-Clean options include:
• Tool-less access doors and covers
• Hinged or removable shafts and paddles
• Smooth internal geometries with minimal ledges
• Flush-mounted discharge valves
Sanitary configurations include:
• 304 / 316 / 316L stainless steel
• Polished or electropolished product-contact surfaces
• FDA-compliant seals and elastomers
• Washdown and CIP-ready designs
Faster cleaning, easier validation, fewer QA migraines.
Powder mixers are engineered with discharge that protects blend integrity:
• Gravity discharge into feeders or conveyors
• Screw or auger-assisted discharge
• Pneumatic conveying pickup
• Direct discharge to packaging or storage
Segregation prevention is engineered—not wished for.
Powder movement creates dust. AIS designs around it.
Integrated features include:
• Dust-tight covers and seals
• Vent ports for dust collection
• Filtered air displacement
• HEPA filtration where required
Clean mixing is controlled mixing.
For combustible dusts and classified environments, AIS-integrated PerMix powder mixers can be designed to comply with:
• ATEX Zones 20, 21, and 22
• NFPA standards including 652, 654, 61, 68, and 69
Available safety features include:
• Explosion-proof motors and controls
• Grounding and bonding provisions
• Anti-static components
• Pressure-rated mixer housings
• Compatibility with explosion protection systems
Energy stays in the mixing—not the incident report.
AIS powder mixing systems engineered by PerMix are used for:
Food ingredients, spices, and blends
Nutraceutical and supplement powders
Pharmaceutical excipients and APIs
Chemical powders and additives
Plastics compounds and fillers
Battery and energy materials
Minerals, pigments, and specialty powders
If uniformity matters, this is where it’s earned.
PerMix engineers powder mixers that understand material behavior. AIS ensures those mixers are fed accurately, discharged cleanly, controlled intelligently, and integrated completely.
Together, they deliver powder mixing systems that behave the same on day one and year five.
