Tumble Blender Features cGMP Design

This blender consists of two    major    assemblies;    the pedestal base     and the cradle. The IBC is clamped     top to bottom by the cradle. The blender is a cGMP design with the pedestal base concealed with cladding. Tumble blending is a dual-action blending principle. The first blending action is produced by a wave action as the material    is tumbled.    This wave (or shear plane) occurs in the top ¼ of the product load. The second blending action is produced by the cradle orientation. The IBC is held in the blender at an angle which positions the IBC horizontal center of gravity 20° from the blender tumbling centerline. This geometry places the IBC shell walls at cross flow, producing angles in relation to the blend    axis and provides a baffling action while the product is tumbled.
