The mixing medium often consists of inner and outer helical ribbons that are designed to move material both inwards and outwards.Pharmaceutical manufacturers use ribbon blenders to efficiently blend and mix granules dry powders, pellets and many other solid forms. Some typical uses of the ribbon blender in pharmacological manufacturing include the mixing of polymer blends, composite fillers and pharmaceutical powders.Ribbon blenders get their name from the ribbon agitator that makes up part of their design. A U-shaped horizontal trough makes up the rest of the structure of a ribbon blender. The ribbon agitator within the blender is made up of a set of inner and outer helical blades.
