DOUBLE CONE BLENDERS

What is a Double Cone Blender & Mixer?

A double cone blender is a standard tumble blender that works best for materials that need to be gently tumbled as it can thoroughly combine a wide variety of granules and dry powders with its angled design. The specifications of a double-cone blender avoids the dead spots that can happen in a standard double cone mixer. Its conical shape makes for easy discharging and uniform mixing. They are simple to keep clean, load, and unload. They can also manage a lot of weight. A great piece of machinery for many processing industries and applications.

The double cone blender features a unique design. The mixing vessel is made up of two cone-shaped parts at both ends and a cylindrical section in between. The mixing vessel is fully welded and polished, allowing the particles inside to tumble freely. This design is how you get many of the advantages that come with using this piece of machinery.

How Does it Work?

You feed the particles to be blended by one of two ways. The first is manually and the second is by using vacuum suction. The blending vessel needs to be filled with two-thirds of its total volume. Then, the particles are intermixed as the double cone performs a 360-degree rotation. The process of blending generally takes 10 to 15 minutes in order to achieve homogeneous mixtures. However, this all depends on the general properties of the materials in the blender. It varies from blend to blend.

A double cone blender is an efficient piece of machinery that is widely used for the dry mixing of free-flowing solids, such as granules and powders. This machine is capable of producing homogeneous mixtures by blending 2 to 5 ingredients. At the end of the day, a double cone blender is a versatile machine that can be used in various industries like pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, chemicals, plastics, fertilizers, etc. Please reach out to us today to get a quote for a piece of machinery.
