Used Double Arm Mixers for Sale


Double arm mixers, also known as sigma blade mixers, are heavy-duty mixing systems designed to process highly viscous, dense, and sticky materials. These mixers use two counter-rotating blades within a horizontal trough to knead, fold, and shear materials with high torque. This mixing action makes them ideal for applications that require intensive blending and material working. Used double arm mixers are widely utilized in chemical processing, food production, pharmaceuticals, and rubber and plastics manufacturing. Aaron Equipment offers used double arm mixers for sale in a range of capacities, blade designs, and discharge configurations.

Double Arm Mixer Applications & Typical Use Cases

Used double arm mixers are commonly used in applications requiring high-torque mixing of viscous or cohesive materials. Typical use cases include:

  • Dough, bakery products, and food paste mixing

  • Adhesives, sealants, and resins

  • Rubber, plastics, and polymer compounding

  • Pharmaceutical and cosmetic pastes

  • Chemical and specialty material processing

These systems are essential for achieving uniform mixing in materials that are difficult to process with standard mixers.

When to Choose a Double Arm Mixer

Double arm mixers are best suited for processes involving extremely viscous, sticky, or non-flowing materials. They are typically selected when high shear and kneading action are required to properly blend ingredients. Compared to planetary mixers or ribbon blenders, double arm mixers provide greater torque and are preferred for applications requiring intensive material working and consistent batch results.

Used Double Arm Mixer Buying Considerations

When evaluating a used double arm mixer, consider:

  • Capacity and batch size: Ensure the mixer meets production requirements

  • Blade design: Sigma blades vs. other configurations impact mixing performance

  • Discharge method: Tilt discharge, bottom discharge, or extrusion options

  • Jacketed trough: Heating or cooling capabilities for temperature-sensitive processes

  • Drive system and condition: Evaluate motor power, gearbox, and maintenance history

Why Buy Used Double Arm Mixers

Purchasing a used double arm mixer can significantly reduce capital investment while maintaining high-performance mixing capabilities. Many units are available for immediate delivery, helping facilities avoid long lead times associated with new equipment. Used mixers also provide access to proven systems suitable for demanding industrial mixing applications.

Sell Your Used Double Arm Mixers

Aaron Equipment purchases surplus and used double arm mixers from a wide range of manufacturers and configurations. Whether you are upgrading mixing systems, closing a facility, or selling idle equipment, our team can assist with buyouts or consignment opportunities.

A double arm mixer is a heavy-duty mixing machine that uses two counter-rotating blades to knead and mix viscous materials. It is commonly used for thick or sticky products.

Double arm mixers are used for processing dough, adhesives, rubber, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and chemical pastes. They are ideal for mixing materials that require high torque and intensive blending.

Double arm mixers provide high torque and kneading action, while other mixers may focus on blending or low-shear mixing. They are specifically designed for viscous and difficult-to-mix materials.

The cost of a used double arm mixer depends on capacity, blade design, manufacturer, condition, and configuration. Larger or jacketed units typically command higher prices.
