Conical paddle mixer for accurate powder blending
In industries where precise blending of fragile powders or high-temperature processing of powders with liquids is required, achieving uniform mixing without damaging the product can be challenging. Controlling temperature and ensuring minimal product distortion is crucial in these scenarios.
Blend powders with high accuracy
The Conical Paddle Mixer (CPM) from Hosokawa Micron is a versatile batch mixer designed for mixing, drying, and reaction processes. It features a conical-shaped vessel and a central paddle rotor that creates vertical and axial motion, ensuring thorough and gentle mixing. The CPM is available in volumes from 50 to over 15,000 liters, making it suitable for small-scale to large-scale industrial applications. Its design allows optimization of the mixing process by adjusting the rotation speed, typically between 1 and 10 m/s, to control the mixing energy. Key applications include the mixing of fragile powders, powders with liquids, and high-temperature processing. The CPM can also handle tasks such as sterilization, pasteurization, and vacuum drying with liquid recovery. Ancillary options include various outlet valves, liquid spraying systems, samplers, lump breakers, and access doors with FDA-approved seals.
