Figures (17) shows kneaders used in the production of putties. The kneader consists of a separate tank which can be fixed in the mixer or transferred with its contents to the packing unit. This system helps in weighing the tank content before mixing and to clean the mixing vessel in the cleaning unit. In this system the mixers can be elevated vertically or laterally as shown in Figure (18).

Figure (19) shows a horizontal kneader consisting of a U-shaped vessel in which two mixers with special shape rotate in different directions with small clearance between them.
There are other types of kneaders which can be heated by steam or cooled by water in order to control the viscosity of the mixture.
