four-blade/flight ribbon mixer

From the site with google image hits for the term, this appears to be a full machine in this context (shorthand usage thus).

The Bandwendel is apparently a sort of helical (aka spiral) mixer, but 'ribbon mixer' seems to be the trade term.

See (and compare the pictures):

Bandwendelmischwerk

For the purists, a helical 'blade' connected to a central shaft is called a flight.
