SZH Series Double-Cone Mixer for Food and Pharmaceutical Powder Blending
Model: SZH
A double-cone mixer offers a rotating-vessel approach for batch blending of free-flowing dry solids. Assess this powder mixer as part of the complete mixing equipment scope, with representative dry blending and granule blending trials to check uniformity and handling after discharge.
Working Principle
The double-cone vessel rotates about its horizontal axis. Gravity moves the material between the conical sections, repeatedly dividing and recombining the batch as the vessel changes position.
Key Features
- A double-cone vessel provides two conical mixing regions.
- Vessel rotation drives gravity-based tumbling.
- Inlet, outlet and working fill are confirmed for the formulation.
Suitable Materials
- Free-flowing dry powders and granules. Cohesive powders or mixtures requiring active lump breakup need a separate assessment before this tumbling method is selected.
- Confirm the actual material properties, moisture or solvent content, temperature sensitivity and target product condition before selecting the configuration.
Applications
Consider double-cone tumbling for free-flowing dry ingredient batches and blending steps that do not require active lump breakup. Review ingredient proportions and handling after discharge.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SZH mixer designed to do?
A double-cone mixer offers a rotating-vessel approach for batch blending of free-flowing dry solids.
What information is needed for model selection?
Review the useful batch volume rather than vessel size alone. Specify bulk density, acceptable particle damage and discharge needs; confirm rotation clearance, cleaning access and a sampling plan that can identify uneven distribution or segregation.
How should mixing performance be evaluated?
Agree the formulation, batch size, sampling procedure and acceptable variation before a trial. Evaluate the discharged blend as well as the material in the vessel, because subsequent handling can affect segregation.
Selection and Configuration
For a configuration review, send the material name, bulk density, particle-size distribution, moisture level, batch mass and required blending endpoint. Working volume, drive rating, contact materials, sealing and discharge details are confirmed for the selected configuration; no numerical model rating is implied by this overview.

Application Review: Food and Pharmaceutical Powder Blending
Define the ingredients, particle-size distribution, working fill and sampling method for the proposed blend. Check uniformity after discharge as well as within the vessel.
For pharmaceutical process evaluation, consult FDA process validation guidance.
For pharmaceutical cleaning requirements, consult the FDA equipment and cleaning questions.
For food ingredients, review the Codex food hygiene and HACCP framework when defining hygienic handling.
Review the actual powder characteristics using the HSE safe handling of combustible dusts.
Include moving-part access in the installation review using HSE work equipment and guarding guidance.
