Twin shell and double cone mixers rely on gentle tumbling action within rotating vessels shaped like a “V” (twin shell) or a symmetrical cone (double cone). This design promotes even blending without shear, making these mixers ideal for sensitive powders, fragile granules, or blends requiring precise homogeneity.

Primary uses across industries

• In pharmaceuticals, twin shell and double cone mixers blend excipients, active ingredients, and powders for tablets and capsules.
• In food manufacturing, they combine spices, powders, and food ingredients while preserving texture.
• In chemical processing, they homogenize fine powders and additives for specialty compounds.
• In additive manufacturing, they prepare consistent powder blends for 3D printing.
• In cosmetics, they gently blend pigments, powders, and dry ingredients for makeup and personal care products.
