Factors to consider:
- Batch or continuous process
- Characteristics of the powder
- Batch size and batch size demands
- Overall Mixing time
- Changeover time
- Ease of cleaning and CIP system
- Cross-contamination risk
- Segregation risk after mixing
- Horizontal and vertical factory space
- Proper blender selection
