PerMix Conical Mixers and Vacuum Conical Mixers/Dryers are engineered for precision mixing and efficient drying, combining gentle tumbling motion with advanced axial-radial mixing. Their unique conical vessel design optimizes material flow, eliminates dead zones, and minimizes heat generation, making them perfect for heat-sensitive, fragile, and segregative materials.
With customizable features such as vacuum integration, heating & cooling jackets, and high-speed choppers, PerMix offers versatile solutions tailored to a wide range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics.
🔹 The conical shape naturally guides materials downward, ensuring a continuous and uniform mixing process.
🔹 Prevents material stagnation and dead zones, making it highly efficient for batch sizes ranging from small to large volumes.
🔹 Provides complete product discharge, minimizing material retention and waste.
✅ Why It Matters: Ensures gentle, efficient, and homogeneous mixing without overheating or product degradation.
🔹 The central screw rotates along its axis while simultaneously orbiting the inner walls of the cone (planetary motion).
🔹 Moves materials both vertically and radially, achieving homogeneous mixing without material segregation.
🔹 Handles powders, granules, pastes, and liquids, ensuring even distribution of all components.
✅ Why It Matters: The axial-radial mixing action ensures every particle is evenly blended, eliminating hot spots or unmixed areas.
🔹 The vacuum environment lowers the boiling point of moisture, allowing for fast, efficient drying at lower temperatures.
🔹 Ideal for heat-sensitive materials such as pharmaceutical powders, nutraceuticals, and specialty chemicals.
🔹 Eliminates trapped air, improving product density, texture, and quality.
✅ Why It Matters: Reduces drying time, enhances product stability, and prevents oxidation or degradation.
🔹 An optional heating & cooling jacket surrounds the conical vessel, allowing precise temperature management.
🔹 Steam, water, or thermal oil circulates through the jacket to heat or cool the product as needed.
🔹 Supports thermal-sensitive mixing, drying, and crystallization applications.
✅ Why It Matters: Prevents overheating, improves moisture evaporation efficiency, and stabilizes temperature-sensitive formulations.
🔹 Choppers break down lumps and agglomerates during mixing to ensure a smooth, uniform final product.
🔹 Essential for granulation, wet coating, and dispersing sticky materials.
🔹 Customizable blade speed & configuration for specific process requirements.
✅ Why It Matters: Ensures consistent particle distribution, improves flowability, and enhances powder homogeneity.
🔹 Materials are loaded into the conical vessel, ensuring efficient space utilization with no risk of material loss.
✅ Why It Matters: Prevents dust formation, improves ingredient dispersion, and supports batch integrity.
🔹 The central screw lifts materials from the bottom of the vessel while gravity pulls them back down, creating a continuous mixing loop.
🔹 The axial-radial motion ensures complete and uniform blending without excessive shear stress.
✅ Why It Matters: Prevents ingredient segregation, ensuring a fully homogeneous mixture.
🔹 Vacuum is applied, lowering the boiling point of moisture, which accelerates drying without heat damage.
🔹 The heating jacket provides controlled thermal energy, further enhancing moisture removal efficiency.
🔹 Vapors are extracted via the vacuum system, allowing for solvent recovery (if needed).
✅ Why It Matters: Preserves product integrity, shortens drying times, and ensures high-purity formulations.
🔹 After mixing or drying, the conical shape naturally directs materials to the discharge outlet, ensuring complete product removal.

When selecting a PerMix Conical Mixer, understanding the difference between single screw and double screw configurations is essential to optimize performance based on your application needs. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
Overview:
A single screw conical mixer features one vertical screw agitator that rotates on its axis while orbiting along the conical vessel wall. This design is highly efficient for most applications and provides consistent, homogeneous mixing.
Advantages of Single Screw:
Limitations of Single Screw:
Overview:
A double screw conical mixer includes two vertical screw agitators that rotate and orbit the vessel simultaneously. This design significantly enhances the mixing action by handling more material in less time.
Advantages of Double Screw:
Limitations of Double Screw:
Criteria | Single Screw | Double Screw |
---|---|---|
Batch Size | Small to medium | Medium to large |
Mixing Time | Moderate | Faster |
Material Density | Uniform or standard-density | Low-density, segregative, or fragile |
