A Double Cone Blender (also called a Twin Cone Blender) is a type of industrial mixing equipment widely used for uniform blending of dry powders and granules in industries like pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and cosmetic manufacturing.
- The double-cone blender has two conical sections joined at a central cylindrical portion.
- As the blender rotates (usually at 10–30 rpm), the material inside tumbles and intermixes due to gravity.
- The gentle mixing action ensures a homogeneous blend without degrading sensitive materials.
