Pharmaceutical powders and granules dry blending

Achieve uniform blending of diverse powder and granule formulations with minimal maintenance, optimizing your batch processing for consistent end-product quality.

Blends and Mixes Pharmaceutical and Chemical Powders

The Double Cone Blenders from Freund are specifically designed for pharmaceutical and chemical powder processing, ensuring uniform blending and mixing of powders and granules. Featuring a robust AISI 316L stainless steel contact surface, it is built for durability and resistance to corrosion. The blenders operate with a direct motor attachment to the shaft, reducing maintenance needs and operational noise. With an electric control panel that features an inverter and timer, you have precise control over blending speed and duration. Ideal for creating uniform formulations in tablets, supplements, and chemical additives, the blending capacity ranges from 37.5 to 2800 liters. The protective frame and safety switch-equipped access gate ensure compliance with CE and OSHA standards. Further, customization options such as pneumatic control of valves, touch operator panels, and hazardous location upgrades enable versatile integration into diverse processing environments. Available cleaning options, including WIP/CIP, streamline maintenance for high hygiene standards ensuring no cross-contamination.
