Blender types

Blender	Action	Best suited to
V-blender	Low-shear tumbling; powder splits and recombines as the V rotates.	Free-flowing dry powders and granules.
Double-cone blender	Low-shear tumbling.	Dry powders, often at larger scale.
Bin (IBC) blender	The transport bin is tumbled, avoiding a transfer step.	Large batches; reduces segregation from transfers.
Ribbon blender	Helical ribbon agitator in a horizontal trough; more vigorous.	Cohesive or higher-viscosity materials.
High-shear mixer	Intense, fast mixing and size reduction.	Wet granulation; breaking agglomerates.
