The '''Truncone Mixer''' is a [[Vertical Ribbon Blenders|Vertical Ribbon Blender]] especially designed for mixing of free flowing and / or cohesive powders. The Truncone mixer is a convective [[Mixers|mixer]] which creates low to medium shear forces during the process. | The '''Truncone Mixer''' is a [[Vertical Ribbon Blenders|Vertical Ribbon Blender]] especially designed for mixing of free flowing and / or cohesive powders.
