Twin shell blenders—also known as V-blenders—are ideal for blending dry powders and granular materials with minimal shear. Their distinctive V-shaped design allows for an efficient tumbling action that promotes uniform mixing without the use of internal agitators, making them especially suitable for delicate or friable ingredients.
These blenders are widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, food and beverage, plastics, and mineral industries for batch processing of powders that require consistent distribution of components. In pharmaceuticals, twin shell blenders are frequently employed to blend active ingredients with excipients. In food processing, they handle spice blends, protein powders, and similar formulations. Their low-impact mixing makes them valuable in plastics and mineral applications where particle integrity is essential.
Federal Equipment offers a reliable selection of used twin shell blenders, including well-known models from Patterson Kelley blenders (PK blenders), a trusted brand in industrial mixing. Whether you're scaling production or replacing legacy equipment, used twin shell mixers provide a cost-effective and dependable solution.
