Mixers

Increase efficiency and raise profits when you select the right industrial mixers for the job
By Laura Major One commercial mixer is not the same as the next. Industrial mixers, while usually containing similar components, provide assistance with a variety of mixing uses. Not just designed for food and cement, industrial mixing equipment stirs adhesives, chemicals, paints, and many other construction materials. If your business involves combining materials, commercial mixers can improve your company output.

Review the following information about industrial mixers before investing as there are many details to consider:

1. Determine which mixers, based on type and design, are best suited for your business tasks.
2. Decide whether it's more profitable for you to rent or buy industrial mixers.
3. Investigate the right supplier or wholesaler online to obtain the perfect industrial mixer information to meet your business needs.
   

Match the right commercial mixer with your business

If your business involves the mixing of liquids including adhesives and chemicals that require high-speed, continuous mixing, consider static mixers. Otherwise, use dry mixers to combine dry materials such as minerals and powders. Blend dry ingredients that require a liquid for the final product with wet mixers. Or incorporate the best of both with a dry/wet mixer. Once you select the type, decide if your business needs a mixing truck, a tabletop, or large stationary mixing machine.
Try:  Discover the various types of mixers and the companies associated with them with MacRae's Blue Book, the Supplier's Directory from Owen Media Partners. Investigate a custom-made Miracle Mixer from Tumble Drum Ind, if your company requires a highly specialized mixer. View the mixer video to see just how it works.

Maximize your company's capital by obtaining lease and purchase information about industrial mixers

Depending on your business, it may be most economical for the company to lease rather than buy industrial mixing equipment outright. Even the purchase of refurbished equipment from a dealer you trust can make the most of company capital.
Try:  Take advantage of the "try-before-you-buy" lease to purchase plan Kady International offers to insure you buy the right mixer for your business. When mixing is the heart of your business, consider the purchase of equipment. While rental payments and rental purchases are tax-deductible in variable proportions and circumstances, use G.W.N. CPA, CP's Lease vs. Buy Calculator to know the figures behind your decision.

Seek the best options to buy industrial mixers online

Save time and legwork by investigating the various commercial mixer wholesalers and dealers online. View each vendor's features and benefits side-by-side and broaden the search to include new, used, rented, refurbished, independent and commercial mixer sellers.
Try:  Know the companies behind your equipment when you compare mixer manufacturers with the Industrial Quick Search Directory. When renting is not feasible, it is more cost-effective to purchase used equipment. Connect with mixer sellers and dealers through Equipment Traders Online's classified ads offered by Dominion Enterprises. Also, utilize Equipnet's interactive marketplace for used industrial equipment.

• When deciding whether to rent or buy and choosing between new and used equipment, you must remember the role mixers play in your business and how much use you need from them.
• Renting may be the better choice if hard usage would require regular repair. A mixer down for repair has a major impact on the business unless your wholesaler can provide a loaner. You must plan for these circumstances in your rental or purchase agreements.
