The V-type mixer is a mixing equipment for dry powder and granular materials widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, food, new energy and other industries. Its core mixing container is formed by welding two asymmetric cylinders at a V-shaped angle. During operation, the container rotates around the axis, and the materials are repeatedly lifted, slid, diffused and converged under the action of gravity to achieve uniform mixing.

 

The equipment is based on the synergistic effect of three mixing mechanisms: diffusive mixing makes particles interpenetrate each other, convective mixing realizes large-scale position exchange of materials, and shear mixing achieves fine mixing through the velocity difference between particle groups. This compound movement ensures that materials circulate without dead angles in three-dimensional space with high mixing uniformity, especially suitable for materials with similar density and particle size.

The V-type mixer has multiple performance advantages. It has good mixing effect, low residue and easy cleaning. There is no internal stirring device, so the structure is simple and the material breakage is low, making it especially suitable for fragile or abrasion-sensitive materials such as crystals and pellets. The equipment is usually made of stainless steel, meeting the requirements of high cleanliness standards such as GMP, and facilitating multi-batch rotation production.

 

In terms of application scope, the V-type mixer is mainly suitable for dry powder materials with good fluidity, and is widely used in the mixing of API powders and granules in the pharmaceutical industry, seasonings and milk powder in the food industry, pigments and catalysts in the chemical industry, and homogenization treatment of battery materials in the new energy field. Its closed design effectively prevents dust from spilling, meeting the requirements of high cleanliness production environment.

 

It should be noted that the V-type mixer is mainly suitable for dry powder materials, and its mixing efficiency may be limited for working conditions with high viscosity or requiring liquid addition for mixing. In actual selection, factors such as material characteristics, mixing accuracy, production capacity requirements and industry regulations should be comprehensively considered. For special process requirements, customized configurations such as liquid spraying devices or jacket heating can be considered.

 

The mixing effect of the equipment is usually best when the loading coefficient is in the range of 30%-50%, which is of great guiding significance for users to optimize the production process. It features simple operation and maintenance, stable and reliable operation, and can be equipped with a PLC control system to realize automatic production, making it one of the ideal equipment for achieving uniform mixing in modern industrial production.

 

When selecting and using the V-type mixer, it is recommended to focus on the material standards, internal finish, sealing performance of the equipment and whether it meets the specific regulatory requirements of the industry to ensure the reliability of the production process and the consistency of product quality.
