What Jobs Require the Use of an Industrial Double Cone Mixer?
Mixing is frequently used in the manufacturing process of products for industries such as food, chemical, healthcare, detergents, cosmetics, plastics, and fertilizers.

How Does a Double Cone Blender Work?
Double cone blenders are used for the dry blending of particular solids. The conical shape at both ends enables uniform mixing and easy discharge. These solids can vary in bulk density as well as the percentage of the total mixture.
The materials placed in a double cone mixer are in a non-stop, yet gentle state of being intermixed as the double cone rotates. This creates for a final product that is completely integrated and blended evenly. Since minimal oversight is needed, this process not only ensures that your end product is blended to perfection with little effort, but that your laborers are working to their full potential in focusing on less menial tasks.
While the normal cycle times can vary, they are generally in the range of 10 minutes.
What's the Difference Between a Double Cone Blender and a V Blender?
V blenders—which are named after their v-shape—provide short blending cycles and utilize two connected cylinders that are in a constant state of dividing and intermeshing particles. Each cylinder provides a location to load material and clean. A V blender is mainly used for mixing 2 - 10 ingredients.
A double cone blender requires less headroom than a V blender. It provides one access cover that equates to easy cleaning and inspection. A double cone blender is generally suited for mixing 2 - 5 ingredients.
