OPERATION
|
|
Octagonal blender is a very precision machine, performing dry blending of powder or granules in only 10 to 30 minutes. This machine is utilized for mainly homogenizing, blending and also for granules lubrication as that facilitates better flow ability at a tablet press while compressing this granules.
The container is brought close to the blender on special trolley having lifting arrangement. This lifting pallet ensures that the container is lifted and is aligned with the transition piece fixed with the blender outlet butterfly valve. This transition piece mouth is clamped with the outer periphery of the container using special type of clamps. Now after clamping the container (100 lits) the blender is inched till the container is vertically inverted over the blender. Now once the container reaches upward inverted position, the butterfly valve is made to open by special hand wheel so that entire content of the container gets unloaded into the blender. Once it becomes empty, the valve is closed and container is brought again downward by rotating the blender again by 180oC and another container is fixed and raised and in similar way and this way entire powder content is unloaded. By this method material is loaded in batches of 50 kg each.

| DESCRIPTION |
Basic machine consists of a blender container which is supported both ends by stub shafts which are supported on plumber block bearings. Entire assembly is placed on a structure which has drive unit consisting of electric motor, gearbox, chain coupling and in case of heavy loads fluid couplings.
There is a baffle made of S.S. 316 pipes inside which can be removed by loosing the nut between the baffles. Baffle assembly also depends upon the customer’s specific requirements. Baffles ensures uneven movement of mass during tumbling and results in better homogenizing. Blender has a discharge butterfly valve which if a client requires so can be operated through pneumatic actuator. Entire butterfly valve is of S.S. 316 with seats of silicon rubber.
