*Ribbon Blender
*:Ribbon blenders are very common in process industries for performing dry-mixing operations. The mixing is performed thanks to 2 helix (ribbon) welded on the shafts. Both helix move the product in opposite directions thus achieving the mixing<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.powderprocess.net/Equipments%20html/Ribbon_blender.html |title=Powder Mixer - Ribbon blender - Design calculation and key operation parameters |access-date=2018-02-16 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180216205355/https://www.powderprocess.net/Equipments%20html/Ribbon_blender.html |archive-date=16 February 2018 |df=dmy-all }}</ref> (see picture of ribbon blender).

*Banbury mixer
*:The ''Banbury mixer'' is a [[brand]] of internal [[Batch production|batch]] mixer, named for inventor [[Fernley H. Banbury]].  The "Banbury" trademark is owned by [[Farrel Corporation]]. Internal batch mixers such as the Banbury mixer are used for mixing or compounding [[rubber]] and plastics. The original design dates back to 1916.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-29505973_ITM|title=AML - support.gale|website=www.accessmylibrary.com|access-date=26 April 2018}}</ref> The mixer consists of two rotating [[spiral]]-shaped blades encased in segments of cylindrical housings. These intersect so as to leave a ridge between the blades. The blades may be cored for circulation of heating or cooling. Its invention resulted in major labor and capital savings in the tire industry, doing away with the initial step of roller-milling rubber.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XSybNRCfYn0C&dq=%22Banbury+mixer%22+history&pg=PA336|title=The Labor History Reader|first=Daniel J.|last=Leab|date=26 April 1985|publisher=University of Illinois Press|access-date=26 April 2018|via=Google Books|isbn=9780252011986}}</ref> It is also used for reinforcing fillers in a resin system.
