DAVIS Standard Duty Precision-Mix Soil Mixers

PEAT, VERMICULITE, PERLITE, SAND, SOIL, BARK, WOOD SHAVINGS, STYROFOAM, CHEMICALS & FERTILIZERS

Are Precision Mixed In Only Three Minutes. Davis Precision-Mix Soil Mixers assure predictable consistency, batch after batch, and they're built to provide many years of dependable service. We've been building Mixing Equipment since 1894. Our first Soil Mixer was built in 1951. Davis Mixers are used throughout the country by many leading greenhouses, growers, nurseries and garden centers. They enjoy the assurance of uniform plant growth, time after time, because their growing media is consistent. Plants can't grow uniformly unless the mix is consistent. A list of our users is available.

Genuine Precision Mixing

Accurate Mixing of micro nutrients; nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, iron, manganese, copper, boron, zinc, molybdenum. For 50 years Davis Mixers have been used in the Food Industry to blend all-purpose flour, donut flour, peanut butter, ice cream powder, etc. If our Mixers can meet the rigid accuracy requirements established for equipment blending ingredients for human consumption ...chances are we can satisfy you. 

Davis Mixers are used throughout the world in commercial, industrial, agricultural, food processing, greenhouse and nursery operations. They regularly mix a vast variety of ingredients ranging from chemicals, fertilizers, foundry sand, detergents, lubricants, plastics, insecticides, livestock feed, dog food, rat poison, grass seed, municipal garbage and manure, as well as all types of potting soil.

Gentle Mixing Action

Precision Mixes without damaging the media. We build many different types of mixing agitators to blend the numerous ingredients Davis Mixers are called upon to handle. For blending potting soil the paddle agitator is a must. Its gentle blending movement provides a lifting and tumbling action as well as circulation from end to end in order to achieve precision mixing, batch after batch without damaging the ingredients' integrity. 

There's a delicate balance between not enough mixing action to provide a uniform mix and too much which unnecessarily breaks down the delicate media, especially peat and chemicals or fertilizer. Ribbons and augers are fine for mixing other products, but ribbons provide too little movement and augers far too much ...which results in excessive destruction of ingredients in the mix. 

Combining paddles and augers isn't necessary. A properly designed paddle agitator provides all the necessary mixing action. Anything else only serves to tear up the media. In soil mixing, the critical balance revolves around using the fewest moving parts in order to accomplish precision mixing. It's simply a matter of having the necessary experience building Mixing Equipment to do the job right ... Ours dates back to 1894.
