The rocking mixer, also known as a rocking-type blender, is a gentle mixing machine commonly used in pharmaceutical applications to homogenize ingredients without damaging their physical structure. It operates using a rocking motion, which gently stirs materials back and forth, ensuring uniform mixing without shear force – unlike conventional high-speed mixers.
Constructed from stainless steel (SUS304 or SUS316L) or high-grade aluminum alloy to ensure durability and corrosion resistance.
Provides sturdy support for all functional components and ensures stable machine operation.
Consists of a mixing platform or tray holder that tilts back and forth at a set angle.
The rocking movement causes the materials to flow in a wave-like motion, gently blending the contents evenly.
Supplies the power needed for the rocking motion.
Typically an electric motor equipped with speed control, allowing adjustment of rocking speed and angle as required by the process.
Includes control buttons or touch interface to adjust mixing parameters such as speed, angle, and time.
Some models come with digital displays or PLC-based systems for easy monitoring and programmable operation.
Equipped with rubberized feet or dedicated anti-vibration supports.
Helps reduce operational noise and minimize vibration transmission to surrounding equipment.
Powder Mixing: Ideal for blending fine powders, especially those prone to clumping or damage when using high-speed mixers.
Biological Solution Mixing: Frequently used in laboratories and biopharmaceutical production to mix liquids containing live cells or delicate biomaterials without causing damage.
Pre-Packaging Homogenization: Supports pre-compression or pre-encapsulation processes, ensuring uniformity before critical manufacturing stages like tableting or capsule filling.
Rocking mixer RK-500L manufactured by T&T MACHINERY is a gentle mixing device specifically designed to preserve the physical integrity of materials. It ensures uniform blending with high efficiency, while remaining easy to clean and maintain — fully compliant with GMP standards.
The mixer operates via a smooth rocking motion, without using impellers or high centrifugal force. As a result:
No shear or excessive friction is generated, avoiding particle breakage or molecular damage.
Ideal for materials that are mechanically sensitive, heat-sensitive, or prone to oxidation.
Perfectly suited for pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and cell-based biological products.
The rocking motion creates a wave-like rolling effect inside the mixing container, which:
Keeps particles in continuous motion, preventing buildup on the bottom or sides of the vessel.
Promotes even distribution of all components, even in mixtures with varying bulk densities or particle sizes.
Reduces risk of stratification, ensuring a highly homogeneous mix — crucial before tableting or encapsulation.
Available in various models, the rocking mixer supports both laboratory-scale research and pilot-scale production:
Allows precise control over time, speed, and rocking angle.
Selected models offer automated PLC programming for repeatable, flexible operation in R&D environments.
Constructed entirely from SUS304 or SUS316L stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and hygiene.
Streamlined design with minimal dead zones for effortless cleaning and reduced cross-contamination risk.
No rotating impellers or shafts in contact with the product — a cleaner and safer mixing environment.
User-friendly control panel requires minimal training to operate.
Smooth and quiet motion minimizes operator fatigue and wear on the machine.
Can run continuously or intermittently, consuming less energy than traditional high-speed mixers.
