Dual Ribbon Auger High-Capacity Coating System Introduced

The Laycote dual ribbon auger high-capacity coating system is designed to mix fertilizers and coat liquids and powders quickly and effectively in a continuous blending or coating process. The dual ribbon auger is designed to coat at a maximum capacity of 400 tn/hr of urea, although initial R&D testing has shown the capacity to reach at 430 tn/hr.  

“Our engineering group has been actively working on developing several improved metering and mixing systems for liquid and powder products that require a superior coverage in a continuous blending process,” said “Anne Sheehy, SR, VP sales & marketing, Yargus Manufacturing. “We are seeing a strong movement towards the continuous blending process where blend capacities are higher and blend accuracy are superior to batch-based systems. The Laycote dual ribbon auger represents a new high capacity option for our customers.”
