Powder Mixer Selection Guide - How to choose a right pharmaceutical mixer?

There are various mixers on the market, including the series of V, CH, SH(3D), Double Cone, Planetary Cone, etc.

 To choose a right mixer, we should consider the physical characteristics of the materials to be fixed, like particle size, stickiness, moisture, and material difference. Besides, we should also consider whether the machine discharges mixed materials easily, whether its price is reasonable and whether it is easy to clean.

V-Series Mixer (Cost-Effective)

If the materials have the particle size larger than 0.01mm, with almost no difference among various particles and weak stickiness (Dynamic Angle of Repose ≤ 45°), this cost-effective v type powder mixer is your first choice.

Double Cone Mixer (High-Efficiency)

Double Cone Mixer has the same applicability as V-Type Mixer, but it is a high-efficiency mixer. Thus, if you want a mixer with higher efficiency, the Double Cone Mixer is a better choice.

SH-Series Mixer (also known as 3D Mixer)

If the materials have the particle size larger than 0.01mm, with great differences among various particles and weak stickiness (Dynamic Angle of Repose ≤ 45°), this 3D mixer is your first choice.

CH-Series Mixer (High output, suitable for both dry and wet materials)

If the materials to be mixed are wet, with the particle size larger than 0.01mm, almost no difference among various particles, and weak stickiness (Dynamic Angle of Repose ≤ 45°), the CH-Series Mixer is your first choice. However, you must know that this mixer is not easy to clean and not suitable for aseptic production.

Planetary Cone Mixer (Strong stickiness)

If the materials to be mixed are dry, with the particle size larger than 0.01mm, with great differences among various particles and strong stickiness (Dynamic Angle of Repose＞45°), and you have a higher production demand, the Planetary Cone Mixer is the best choice. By the way, due to its special structure, you may have some difficulty in cleaning it.
