Choosing the Right Double Cone Drum Mixer

How to Choose
1

Choose by batch volume and whether drying is required

Choose by batch volume and whether drying is required, since vacuum drying changes the vessel specification.

2

Confirm surface finish and access provisions for regulated industries

Confirm surface finish and access provisions for regulated industries, and match discharge arrangements to downstream packaging to avoid segregation.

3

Confirm with POLYC

Confirm contact materials and documentation (CE) with your order specifications.

Process Engineering

Working Principle

  1. The double-cone vessel rotates so powder cascades and recombines continuously, producing gentle convective blending.

  2. The conical geometry promotes complete discharge through the bottom outlet with minimal residue.

  3. Because there is no high-speed agitator, particle size and shape are preserved and little heat is generated.

  4. Where fitted, a jacketed vessel and vacuum connection allow drying in the same vessel.

Equipment Benefits

Frequently Asked Questions

What mixing duties is the Double Cone Drum Mixer designed for?

The Double Cone Drum Mixer is built for Pharmaceuticals, Food, Fine Chemicals. It is selected when the batch has to be blended homogeneously without the shear damage a disperser would cause.

What viscosity range can it handle?

The working viscosity range follows the agitator geometry and drive torque. Product-contact parts are Stainless steel 304 / 316L.

How is mixing uniformity achieved?

The agitator geometry keeps the whole batch moving rather than only the zone around the shaft, so colour, filler and additive distribution stay consistent from batch to batch.

What capacity range is available?

Capacity is 50 - 4,000 L, with motor power 1. Vessel size is matched to the batch and the available floor space.

What discharge and cleaning options are available?

Bottom discharge, side discharge and hydraulic discharge arrangements are offered, with vacuum and jacket options where the formulation requires them.
