Double Cone Blender - Double cone powder blender with VFD control and stainless steel construction. Symmetrical design, smooth discharge, TC connection. 2.5 Kg to 5000 Kg capacity.

The Double Cone Blender delivers superior mixing uniformity with symmetrical cone design, engineered for efficient pharmaceutical blending across lab to production scales.

The basic equipment is thoughtfully designed with non-FLP construction for enhanced safety and reliability, making it suitable for various pharmaceutical applications.
The main structure of this equipment is expertly crafted from heavy-duty SS 304 square tube, ensuring durability and longevity.
The symmetrical double cone design provides optimal mixing dynamics and ensures complete material blending without dead zones.
The blending bin and gear box output are seamlessly coupled with heavy-duty Pin Bush Coupling, ensuring efficient and reliable blending operations.
A variable frequency drive is included for precise speed control, allowing you to tailor the blending process to your specific formulation needs.
A self-positioning sensor is provided to ensure accurate and consistent discharge positioning, reducing the need for manual adjustments.
At the discharge point of the blender, a manually operated butterfly valve simplifies the discharge process, providing easy control and flexibility.
The discharge includes a specially designed adaptor assembly with T C (Tri-Clamp) connection. In the event of damage to the butterfly valve, this assembly serves as a safeguard, preventing material loss and ensuring product integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum blending capacity?

The Double Cone Blender can handle up to 5000 Kg batches, making it ideal for small lab trials to large-scale production runs.

How does the symmetrical design improve mixing?

The double cone geometry eliminates dead zones and provides superior tumbling action, achieving 99%+ mixing uniformity without segregation.

Is the blender suitable for fragile granules and heat-sensitive formulations?

Yes. It is a diffusion (tumble) blender with no internal agitator, so shear is low and granules survive intact. There is no heat input, so heat-sensitive actives are unaffected.

How full should the cone be, and how fast does it run?

Charge to about 50-60% of the shell's gross volume so the bed has room to cascade. Production tumble blenders run in the region of 8-20 rpm; the VFD lets you tune the shell speed to the formulation. Fix blend time and the lubricant addition point during validation, because lubricated blends can over-mix.

Double cone, octagonal or bin blender?

All three tumble-blend at low shear. A double cone is the simplest choice for lab, pilot and moderate production batches with one shell to clean and qualify. An octagonal blender packs more working volume into less headroom for larger batches. A bin/IBC blender suits multi-product suites, containment and bin-to-press flow. See our guide comparing the three.

What is the construction and material of construction?

Non-flameproof construction on a heavy-duty SS 304 square-tube frame, with the gearbox output coupled to the shell through a heavy-duty pin-bush coupling. Product-contact finish and MOC (SS 316 / SS 316L, mirror or matt polish) are configured to your requirement at the quotation stage.
