A Cone Bottom Mixing Tank is a specialized type of mixing vessel designed with a conical bottom, which aids in efficient drainage, mixing, and complete discharge of the contents. These tanks are widely used across various industries for blending, suspending solids, and homogenizing liquids or powders.

Key Features of Cone Bottom Mixing Tank
1	Conical Bottom Design	Ensures complete product discharge without residue. Prevents material accumulation, making it ideal for handling viscous or sediment-prone substances.
2	Agitator / Mixing System	Equipped with propeller, turbine, paddle, or anchor-type agitators, depending on application. Ensures uniform mixing and prevents settling of solids.
3	Material Construction	Stainless Steel (SS 304 / SS 316 / SS 316L) for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.
4	Capacity Options	Available in small lab-scale models (50L) to large industrial sizes (up to 2000 L or more).
5	Jacketed & Insulated Options	Single-wall tanks for normal mixing. Jacketed tanks for temperature control using hot water, steam, or cooling fluids. Insulated tanks to maintain internal temperature stability.
6	Customization Options	Manhole for cleaning and inspection. CIP (Clean-in-Place) system for easy cleaning. Level indicators, pressure gauges, and flow control valves. Bottom discharge valve (Butterfly, Ball, or Flush Bottom).
Working Principle of Cone Bottom Mixing Tank
1	Material Loading	Raw materials (liquid, powder, or both) are added to the tank through the top inlet or automated feeding system.
2	Agitation & Mixing	The agitator rotates, creating turbulence and ensuring uniform distribution. For solid-liquid mixing, high-shear impellers prevent sedimentation.
3	Heating or Cooling (If required):	Jacketed tanks allow precise temperature control. Steam or hot water circulates for heating, while chilled water or glycol cools the product.
4	Settling & Discharge	The conical bottom allows complete discharge without leaving residue. The bottom outlet valve ensures smooth flow and minimal waste.
