Four Blenders That Work for Your Pharmaceutical Laboratory
Interested in purchasing a blender for your pharmaceutical company? No matter the size of your facility, blenders are crucial in your laboratory for effective drug and chemical production.
With so many options available on the market to pharmaceutical industries, it can be difficult finding the right blender for your needs. In this post, Ability Fabricators Inc. will briefly guide you through four blenders that are ideal when working with pharmaceutical goods.
Double Cone Blender
A Double Cone Blender is used to create a homogeneous mixture between solid granules and powders.
The blender’s conical shape enables it to produce uniform mixture that can easily be discharged through the butterfly valve. The Double Cone Blender is a highly efficient piece of equipment and is balanced on both sides to avoid any excessive weight being placed on the motor.
As well as being ideal for pharmaceutical industries, the Double Cone Blender is also relied upon in nutraceuticals, cosmetics, food and chemical manufacturing.

V-Blender
A V-Blender functions to blend dry solids in batches or bulk. The end result of mixing with a V-Blender is fine powder, granules or pellets. It consists of two V-shaped shells, which can be filled with dry solids and then rotated to prompt quick blending.
The V-shape in the blender allows it to rotate smoothly without causing any high impact, helping materials and goods to maintain their quality throughout the blending process.
For pharmaceutical companies, the V-Blender is an ideal choice for safely blending different ingredients. It is also easy to clean, helping contain any threat of contamination and can easily be emptied with a simple but effective discharge valve.

Ribbon Blender
Like the V-Blender, the Ribbon Blender uses a particular shape to facilitate an effective blending process. This blender features a U-shape trough, accompanied by two helix-shaped agitators (also known as ribbons) that help move the material.
Ribbon Blenders can work at high speeds, enabling them to process strong solids at a fast rate. Unique to the Ribbon Blender, the agitators inside assist in breaking down and mixing ingredients.
Ribbon blenders are perfect for mixing/ blending spices in food manufacturing companies. Find out more about our stainless steel ribbon blenders here.
IBC Bin Blender
Short for Intermediate Bulk Container, the IBC Bin Blender consists of a bin-shape held up by a cradle. During the blending process, this cradle rotates the bin using a free-fall and tumbling effect, resulting in a fine mixture. Its ‘bin’ shape allows it to be easily fabricated and customized for specific sizes, from being small and portable to a larger scale required for mass production. As well as its fast blend time, the IBC Bin Blender does not require any lengthy clean-up, making it both cost and time effective for pharmaceutical facilities.
The IBC Bin Blender is an ideal choice for companies manufacturing multiple product lines.
