Frequently Asked Questions
A Ploughshare Mixer is often suitable for materials that tend to agglomerate.
Its plough-shaped mixing tools generate intensive circulation of the material, while optional high-speed choppers can break up lumps and agglomerates during mixing.
The final selection should be based on the material characteristics and process requirements.
Vortex mixers are designed for a wide variety of powders, granules, and powder-liquid mixtures.
Typical applications include chemical powders, food ingredients, pharmaceutical powders, animal feed, dry mortar, ceramics, battery materials, fertilizers, pesticides, minerals, refractory materials, and other bulk solids. The actual mixer configuration should be selected according to the physical and chemical properties of the material.
Vortex manufacture a wide range of industrial powder and bulk solids mixing equipment, including:
- Horizontal Ribbon Mixers
- Ploughshare Mixers
- Double Shaft Paddle Mixers (Paddle Mixers / “No-Gravity” Mixers)
- Conical Twin-Screw Mixers
- Vertical Screw Ribbon Mixers
- Double Cone Mixers
- V-Type Mixers
- 3D Motion Mixers
- Customized mixing systems and complete mixing lines
The most suitable mixer depends on your materials, production capacity, mixing ratio, required mixing time, and process conditions.
Mixer capacity should be evaluated using both the total vessel volume and the effective working volume. The required volume depends on material bulk density, batch weight, filling ratio and the mixing principle of the selected machine. A mixer should not normally be filled to its total geometric volume because sufficient space is required for material movement and effective mixing. For this reason, selecting a mixer based only on vessel volume can result in an unsuitable configuration.
The appropriate industrial powder mixer depends on several factors, including:
- Material characteristics
- Bulk density
- Particle size
- Required mixing uniformity
- Batch size or production capacity
- Moisture content
- Whether heating or drying is required
- Whether liquid addition is required
- Required discharge configuration
- Production and automation requirements
Vortex provides different powder mixer designs so that equipment can be selected according to the specific process requirements.
Vortex powder mixer selection depends on several factors, including:
- Material type and characteristics
- Bulk density and particle size
- Material flowability
- Moisture content
- Viscosity
- Mixing ratio
- Batch size or required production capacity
- Whether liquid addition is required
- Required mixing uniformity
- Temperature, pressure, vacuum, or other process requirements
Vortex engineers can recommend a suitable powder mixer based on your material and process requirements.

Sri Lanka trader purchase vortex double cone blender
cone blender is a tea trade company in Sri Lanka, they undertakes every aspect of purchasing, mixing , packaging and delivering tea to their clients, prioritizing quality and prompt delivery in every shipment.
Ceylon black tea is one of the country’s specialities. It has a crisp aroma reminiscent of citrus, and is used both unmixed and in blends. It is grown on numerous estates which vary in altitude and taste. Tissa, president of Lakjana tea is interested in our double cone blenders to mix two kinds of Ceylon black tea together, he requires granule to granule blenders as we are blending tea (sugar like. Not powder).
We proposed vortex double cone blender with inner blades which could increase the flow rate compared to traditional double cone blender without helical blades.
Tissa thinks the principle of vortex double cone blender is very good and place an order of 3 sets 300L double cone blender, when he used our double cone blender, he is very satisfied and sent us a letter, which says:
The double cone blender is wonderful and extremely convenient. We got the best results and they were even better than our older method of manual blending and we are really happy and grateful to you and the company. The only problem we have right now is having to put the tea into the drum manually.
We most eagerly expect to keep in touch with you and the company, in the future to come.
We thank you very much for your services. We appreciate it a lot and it has been a great honour to us to have done a transaction with your company and to have known you. We value it very much.
