How the Double Cone Blender Works
ROSS Double Cone Blenders are ideal for highly accurate and repeatable mixing of powders, granules, and other free-flowing solids. These can be designed to handle extremely high bulk densities and intimately blend very minor ingredients. Materials are constantly being intermixed as the Double Cone rotates. One main advantage to tumble blending is that it is very low-impact and able to mix friable materials without compromising integrity. Another advantage is the vessel geometry which allows for complete discharge while also being easy to access and clean.
Double Cone Blenders can be supplied with intensifier bars to assist with deagglomeration as needed. Discharge is accomplished through a butterfly valve 24” from the floor. All units are provided with appropriate safety railings and limit switch interlocks.
