Introduction of V Blender
The V blender is a kind of equipment used for blending dry materials such as powders, granules, and other solids. It is called a V blender because of its unique V-shaped design, which consists of two interconnected cylindrical containers that are mounted at a 45-degree angle to each other. This design allows the materials to flow from one end of the V to the other, creating a tumbling and mixing action that results in a homogenous blend. V blenders are typically made of stainless steel and are polished to a mirror finish to prevent contamination of the materials being mixed. They are commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, and cosmetics for their efficient and thorough mixing capabilities.

The V blender consists of a container and a transmission part. The container part is made of two cylinders welded in a V shape, and the included angle a of the two cylinders is generally 80°. For powders with poor flow properties, this angle should be smaller. The feeding port is at both ends of the V-shaped, and the discharge port is at the bottom of the V-shaped, usually sealed with an O-ring.
The inner wall of the container needs to be polished to make the inner surface very smooth, so that the powder and granules can flow fully, and it is also conducive to discharging and cleaning. The lengths of the two barrels of the V blender are not equal, in order to more effectively disrupt the movement of the material in the mixing chamber, increase the degree of "turbulence", and facilitate the full mixing of the material.
In addition, in order to increase the mixing effect, baffles, paddles or forced stirring paddles are sometimes installed inside the container to stir and deflect the materials. The rotation speed of the stirring paddle is generally 450-950r/min, and its rotation direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the cylinder to increase the mixing speed.
Advantages of V blender
The V blender, also known as a V-type mixer or V-shaped blender, is a commonly used industrial mixing device. It has several advantages that make it a popular choice for blending various materials. Here are some advantages of V blenders:
Efficient Mixing
The V blender utilizes a V-shaped container and two inclined rotating blades that create a tumbling motion. This design ensures thorough mixing and blending of materials, even those with different particle sizes or densities. It helps achieve a uniform blend and reduces the risk of ingredient segregation.
Gentle Mixing Action
The tumbling motion of the V blender is gentle, making it suitable for fragile or delicate materials that need to be mixed without excessive shear or impact. It minimizes the generation of heat and prevents material degradation, ensuring the integrity of the blended product.
Versatility
V blenders can handle a wide range of materials, including powders, granules, and even some pastes. They are commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, chemicals, and cosmetics. The blender can accommodate different batch sizes, making it versatile for various production requirements.
Easy to Clean
V blenders are designed with accessibility and ease of cleaning in mind. The V-shaped container allows for easy discharge of the blended material, and the blender's interior can be thoroughly cleaned. Some models feature removable parts or quick-release mechanisms, simplifying the cleaning process and reducing downtime between batches.
Scalability
V blenders are available in different sizes, ranging from laboratory-scale models to large-scale industrial blenders. This scalability allows for seamless process development and scale-up from small-scale trials to full-scale production.
Operator Safety
V blenders are equipped with safety features to protect operators during operation. They typically include interlocking systems that prevent the blender from starting if the cover is opened or if the container is not properly positioned. This ensures safe and reliable operation.
Cost-Effective
V blenders are generally considered cost-effective compared to other types of mixers. They offer efficient blending capabilities, ease of use, and low maintenance requirements. Their versatility and scalability make them a valuable investment for many manufacturing processes.
Application of V Blender
Since the V-type mixing equipment is operated "gently" at a low speed of about 5-30r/m in, it will not cause obvious crushing under normal circumstances. Moreover. the wall of the cylinder can be protected by a wear-resistant material coating, so V blender is suitable for easy Abrasion, crushing, mixing of granular materials with high requirements on product purity, good material fluidity and small physical property differences.
In addition, it is suitable for the mixing of powders and granules that are easy to agglomerate and the mixing of added liquids. The mixing equipment is also suitable for mixing materials with low mixing requirements and short mixing time. The rotation speed of V-type mixing equipment is generally 50% to 80% of the critical speed, and the optimal charging coefficient is 24% to 35%.
On the other hand, the V-type mixing equipment is very convenient for charging, discharging, cleaning and changing varieties, so it is often used for the mixing of small batch, multi-variety, intermittent operation of fine chemical and pharmaceutical industry products.
