The unique design of the Tornado saves time by mixing right in the original container. Buhler Inc. Mahwah, NJ USA 201-847-0600 gdnorthamerica@buhlergroup.com www.buhlergroup.com/wetgrinding_dispersing Visconomic+ Attributes/Comments: Visconomic+ allows high flow rates even with high viscous products. The unique process chamber design provides efficient wet grinding and dispersing. Visconomic+ has flexible control options and provides temperature control while the ceramic inner liner offers efficient cooling and improved wear performance. Blade Depot (A division of Norstone, Inc.) Bridgeport, PA USA 484-684-6986 Fax: 610-275-2404 sales@bladedepot.net www.bladedepot.net Polyblade DHS with diamond shaped teeth and pumping scoops Attributes/Comments: Diamond shaped teeth. Easy cleaning. Lower amperage. 3, 6 or 9 scoops. 1-4 teeth between scoops. Available in one sided for air entrainment reduction. Handles ALL viscosities. Never sharpens. Dual sided. Lasts far longer than steel blades even when used with media. Charles Ross and Son Company Hauppauge, NY USA 631-234-0500 Fax: 631-234-0691 mail@mixers.com www.mixers.com Double Planetary Mixing & Discharging in a Sanitary Turnkey System Attributes/Comments: The ROSS Double Planetary Mixer is available in a “super sanitary” turnkey configuration, featuring a common stainless steel workbench for both the mixer and a matching discharge system. On the sanitary 4-gallon Double Planetary Mixer & Discharge System Model DPM/DS-4S shown, both interior and exterior stainless steel surfaces are type 316, with a 150-grit (#4) finish and electropolished. Its jacketed mixing vessel and special high viscosity blades are a dynamic combination for producing thick gels, pastes, putties and other semi-solids under precise temperatures. 100% sealed gearbox and stirrer shafts ensure complete cleanability and eliminate cross-contamination between batches. This system is scalable through 1,000-gallon production models. ROSS Triple Shaft Mixer with Powder Induction Manifold Attributes/Comments: The latest 600-gallon ROSS VersaMix Model VM-600 is capable of high speed subsurface powder induction with proprietary ROSS Solids/Liquid Injection Manifold (SLIM). SLIM incorporates powder or liquid phases directly into the rotor-stator mix head, causing instant wet out as it rotates at 3,600 RPM. The classic dual-post triple-shaft design has been revolutionized with this feature to streamline the processing of substantial powder phases. The robust anchor agitator moves product from the high shear rotor stator head to a high-speed dispersing head, which deagglomerates any remaining fish eyes. Used to quickly mix large batches throughout the process industries, the SLIM feature accelerates loading phases exponentially. This design is available from laboratory sizes upwards of 4,000 gallons. Custom Milling & Consulting, Inc. Fleetwood, PA USA 610-926-0984 Fax: 610-926-0984 sales@cmcmilling.com www.cmcmilling.com Planetary Plus Mixer Attributes/Comments: CMC’s line of Planetary Plus Mixers provide a powerful “combination” of mixing elements for the most demanding high viscosity, high shear, and temperature sensitive products. The mixer is constructed with a pair of planetary finger blades, high shear dispersing blade, and a side wall scraper. Each finger blade rotates on its own axis while simultaneously orbiting around the mixing vessel while the high shear blade is mounted in the center. The angled design of the finger blades pumps the materials up from the bottom and down from the top to insure complete turnover. Engineered Mills, Inc. Grayslake, IL USA 847-548-0044 Dave.Peterson@EMImills.com www.EMImills.com Mixer/Disperser with Powder Induction Attributes/Comments: EMImills laboratory high speed mixers are available with a Rotor/Stator mixing head with powder induction system to allow efficient wetting of powders through sub level addition. The EMI Rotor/Stator head provides high shear forces while creating a vacuum that will draw material from the feed funnel and directly into the carrier fluid that is being pumped from the vessel bottom. Dusting from powder is reduced at the same time initial wetting occurs. The mixer is variable speed and available in different horsepower’s and mixer sizes. Contact EMImills regarding your process application. Glen Mills Inc. Clifton, NJ USA 973-777-0777 Fax: 973-7770070 info@glenmills.com www.glenmills.com Kakhunter Centrifugal Planetary Mixer Attributes/Comments: Kakhunter Centrifugal Planetary Mixers is used for mixing/blending of viscous liquids and pastes. The intense 2,000+ rpm motion moving the container in both rotational (“daily”) and revolutionary (“yearly”) directions creates homogenous blends. Also, efficient for degassing and powder dispersion. Hero Products Group Vancouver, Canada 604-522-6543 Fax: 604-522-8735 sales@hero.ca www.hero.ca S2650 5-Gallon Shaker Attributes/comments: S2650 is a quiet, sturdy and reliable 5-gallon shaker with a small footprint that combines vibrational technology with a clamping system that thoroughly mixes from a 1/2 pint to a 5 gallon container, including cases; increasing efficiency and versatility.
