Application :
Octagonal Blenders are made with superior quality raw material that efficiently processes large volumes of product. Crafted to perfection, these machines are octagonal and compact in size compared to a ‘V’ shaped or double cone blenders. Moreover, Octagonal Blenders are in high demand on the global market owing to its less power consumption, low blending speed and being well balanced even in higher capacities.
In pharmaceutical Octagonal Blender, the granules come from all sides due to the product container’s octagonal shape; hence, RPM’s requirement is less. Suitable mainly for Crystalline & Granular type material. This type of material gets sufficient continuous movement due to their shape if containers have only slow motion and will result in adequate quality blending/lubrication of granules.
