Thompson 5000, 5500, 5600, 51000 Mixer Mincers/ Grinders have hopper capacity ranging between 900 L to 1,500 L providing mix batch capacities of 500 kg to 1,000 kg.

Multiple mixing paddle options available for various product mixing.

5000 Series Twin Paddle Reinforced Heavy-Duty Stainless-Steel Overlapping Paddle Systems produce thorough homogenous mixing of product in all areas of the hopper / bowl.

The patented “HECS” High Efficiency Cutting Systems can produce up to 8,000 kg/hr on 1st cut and up to 7,500 kg/hr (125 kg/min) through 4 mm hole plate on 2nd cut.

End Chute Discharge option is available to allow product discharge without going through mincing head.

BladeStop Features and Benefits
Offering market leading performance with the fastest blade stopping time on the market, Scott’s BladeStop™ has redefined bandsaw safety culture in multiple industries for over a decade. The innovative “dual-sensing” operator monitoring system provides second-to-none protection for its users by utilising the following technologies:

1) GloveCheck™ Vision Sensing – This vision system was developed by Scott as a solution to significantly reduce risk of serious injury. Our high-speed vision system is continuously monitoring both the colour of the operators glove along with their movements; if their trajectory is calculated to result in contact with the blade, the BladeStop™ Braking-Mechanism stops the blade before an operator comes into contact with it. This results in most operators walking away from the saw without a scratch.

2) Body-Sensing Technology – A revolutionary system which monitors not just the operators’ fingers, but their entire body. Our advanced control system is continuously looking out for contact between the operators’ skin and the saw blade, even when not in direct line of sight on our GloveCheck™ system. The innovative sensing system can distinguish the difference between human flesh and the product being processed. It is this sensing system, paired with the fastest stopping time on the market, which makes it possible for the operator to walk away from an incident with a minor cut rather than a serious amputation.

If our GloveCheck™ system is considered as the equivalent of a “seat-belt”, our Body-Sensing system can be considered equivalent to an “airbag”. Where operator safety is concerned, the benefits of dual functional redundancy is where BladeStop™ distinguishes itself as a market leader with over 1,500 units protecting operators around the world daily. BladeStop™ is available in three models, suitable for a range of processing requirements in a wide variety of industries.

To summarise the benefits BladeStop™ will provide: -
- Unique Dual-Sensing operator monitoring system.
- Ultra-fast BladeStop™ Braking-Mechanism – Fastest on the market.
- Microcontroller based control unit – Responds within a millisecond.
- Fast restart - Ready to cut again less than a minute after a stopping event.
- Sustainable - No need to change the blade after a stopping event.
- Quality, Hygiene and Safety – Designed to conform with international standards.
- Convenience – Body-sensing achieved with a single quick-release operator strap.
- Simple and Straightforward – No complexity or unnecessary distractions for operators.
- Fit for purpose – Designed for use in industrial applications with end user in mind.

Stop time specifications: -
- Sensing time < 1 millisecond
- Blade stand-still time < 10 milliseconds*

* As tested on a well maintained and cleaned saw.

Thompson 91000 Mixer Mincer / Grinder has hopper / bowl capacity of 1,570 L and mix batch capacity of 1,000 kg to 1,200 kg. Reinforced Heavy Duty Twin Stainless Steel Counter Rotating & Overlapping Paddles produce thorough homogenous mixing of product in all areas of the hopper / bowl.

91000 Series Mixer Mincer / Grinder incorporates 280mm (11") diameter Feedscrew with the patented “HECS” High Efficiency Cutting Systems can produce up to 24,000 kg/hr on 1st cut and up to 12,000 kg/hr (200 kg/min) through 4 mm hole plate on 2nd cut.

170mm diameter standard Feedscrew provides production capabilities of up to 20,000 kg/hr on 1st cut and up to 12,000 kg/hr (200 kg/min) on 2nd cut.

5000 Mixer Mincer with CO2 Injection and End Discharge

Thompson Mixer Mincers / Grinders incorporate the world's best mixing, mincing and PLC controlled CO2 injection cooling technologies. They deliver the most efficient and consistent product temperature reduction technique coupled with perfect temperature controls.

A great feature available on Thompson 5000 Mixer Mincer / Grinder is the bowl discharge chute. This is a pneumatically controlled discharge flap on the end of the bowl allows the unloading of all products contained in the bowl without having to go through mincing head.

Thompson 5000, 5500, 5600, 51000 Mixer Mincers/ Grinders have hopper capacity ranging between 900 L to 1,500 L providing mix batch capacities of 500 kg to 1,000 kg.
