Ross Introduces New Planetary Mixer Blades Ideal For High Viscosity Adhesives

Ross has announced the introduction of an entirely new blade design for the company's line of Double Planetary Mixers. The new design is designated as the "HV Blade and is available for all sizes.

The new HV Blade enhances the capability of the Planetary Mixer. It enables the mixing of ultra-high viscosity adhesive formulations. Products having this viscosity previously required a high horsepower double arm mixer. The new Blade has many advantages including the following:

  • Capable of mixing materials to 7,000,000 cps ยท Assists in the rapid incorporation of light and difficult to wet solids such as fumed silica
  • Cleans the walls and bottom of the vessel
  • Easy to clean between batches and color changes

The "DPM" Model is available with a new range of optional features including sanitary designs, special benches, and vacuum and pressure sealing options. This mixer is equipped with special start under load protection.

Ross Mixing, Blending, Drying and Dispersion equipment is manufactured on five continents and is marketed worldwide. In the USA Ross operates five plants.
