Offering a high level of precision and consistency, ROSS V Cone Blenders utilize diffusion as the main mechanism for mixing. As the V shaped vessel rotates on its horizontal axis, batch materials cascade down, distributing particles over a freshly exposed surface. With operating speeds of 5 to 25 revolutions per minute, the ROSS line of tumble blenders can easily mix dry solid blends, low-viscosity slurries, friable materials, as well as formulations containing trace components or ingredients that are dissimilar in size, shape, and density.
The ROSS Model VCB-20 is fully customized with two pneumatic cylinders affixed to the V cone body to disconnect and connect fiber drums for charging and discharging. The blender’s dust-tight butterfly valve is operated by optional pneumatic control. To reduce the size of agglomerates, a high-speed intensifier bar is installed along the mixer’s axis of rotation. Nozzles can also be attached to this intensifier bar for continuous liquid additions during the mixing process.
