| 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. |
