Engineered for applications requiring advanced mixing capabilities, the ROSS VMC-300 combines three independently driven agitation systems in one unit. 

Through an innovative concentric-shaft configuration, this advanced system effectively blends, disperses, and homogenizes materials by combining two synergistic agitation technologies. 

ROSS VCB-10 V-Blenders are designed for precision mixing of free-flowing solids. 

The ROSS HSM-100LH-3 is equipped with a 2.5" diameter rotor/stator head that allows particles to be sheared and expelled at a high velocity into the surrounding mix, breaking up agglomerates and producing fine dispersions. 

The ROSS CDA-300 Dual Shaft Mixer is engineered for accurate processing of high-performance formulations across a wide range of rheologies, solids loading, operating temperatures, and pressures.

Offering a high level of precision and consistency, ROSS V Cone Blenders utilize diffusion as the main mechanism for mixing.

The ROSS V Cone Tumble Blender utilizes diffusion mixing to deliver low-impact, highly accurate, and repeatable mixing of powders, high-density powdered metals, granules, pellets, and other free-flowing solids.

The ROSS Model CDA-200 is customized for shear-sensitive applications with low to medium viscosity. 

ROSS’s new three roll mills are used for high-viscosity dispersions in many industries, and features an ANSI 2017-compliant controls package.

The custom-built ROSS FDA-3500 has a maximum working capacity of 3,500 gallons, a two-zone stainless steel dimpled jacket for heating/cooling, a 4” pneumatic discharge valve, and an explosion-proof load cell system rated for up to 20,000 lbs. 

As an external mixer, the Inline SLIM can be piped to the recirculation loop of virtually any size vessel. The 3A-compliant machine–featuring tri-clamp connections–can be cleaned in place, but is also quick to disassemble for deep cleaning and sanitation.

The manufacturer of specialty mixing and blending equipment offers multiple technical resources on its revamped site, including case history articles, videos, white papers, and various other mixer literature.

The VersaMix multi-shaft mixers from ROSS are ideal for processing medium- to high-viscosity applications up to several hundred-thousand centipoise.

Parker Hannifin Corp. is investing in a 75,000-sq-ft expansion and modernization of its Parker LORD chemical manufacturing plant in Saegertown, Pa. This expansion to the existing 250,000-sq-ft facility will help enable Parker LORD to increase its share of the growing adhesives market.

Manufacturers and scientists are continually pushing the envelope on eco-friendly adhesives, sealants, coatings, and potting and encapsulation compounds. Demand for green and sustainable formulations is expected to keep growing due to tightening legislation, consumer awareness, and new opportunities.

Charles Ross & Son So. recently announced that it has the capacity to manufacture ancillary storage tanks, pressure vessels, and reactors up to 100,000 gal at its Ross Engineering fabrication plant.
