Ross Multi-Shaft Mixers are ideal for large-scale processing of pastes, gels, dispersions, suspensions and slurries from low to high viscosity. Equipped with two or three independently-driven agitators working in tandem, these versatile machines are designed for heavy-duty mixing under controlled temperature and can deliver a wide range of shear levels.
Shown is a 2000-gal Triple-Shaft Mixer featuring a helical three-wing anchor agitator, a high speed saw-tooth disperser blade and a high shear rotor/stator emulsifier. This fixed-tank design mixer is rated for full vacuum operation up to 29.5” Hg. Stainless steel 316L wetted parts are polished to a 240-grit finish. The domed cover includes flanged ports, spray balls, an RTD thermoprobe and a 24” manway. A pneumatically-operated sanitary discharge valve, dimpled 100-psig stainless steel jacket and rotary vane vacuum pump were supplied as well. The mixer is controlled from a 15” color touch screen connected to a pre-programmed PLC.
