The slant double
cone design eliminates dead spots which occasionally occur in
conventional double cone mixer.
The particle size reduction is minimized due
to the absence of any moving blades.
Shape of blender body results in a near complete
discharge of product material, clearly an added advantage over
horizontal blender.
Blender rotates, the material at the sides nearest
the access starts to cascade first, striking the sloping sides
of the cone where it is deflected towards the center. The progressive
cascading action moves material from the smallest axial radius
and towards the center. The speed of the unit determines the point
of rotation at which the material starts to cascade.
A second action takes place simultaneously with
the cascading action. Material falling in to the middle of the
blender spreads apart as it falls, mixing with the material flowing
inwardly from the sides. The double blending action is so rapid
and effective that particles of different physical properties
cannot separate, and are interspersed uniformly throughout the
batch. |
