ROSS has highlighted its VersaMix Triple Shaft Mixer with Solids/Liquid Injection Manifold (SLIM) Technology, which is reportedly an ideal tool for challenging mixing applications such as those requiring efficient powder dispersion, and critical homogenization of medium to high viscosity slurries, pastes, gels, creams and suspensions.

The VersaMix model VMC-40 was designed for full vacuum operation and includes a three-wing anchor agitator with Teflon blades to scrape the sidewalls and bottom surfaces of the vessel; a high shear mixer with SLIM-style rotor/stator, which draws solids sub-surface for virtually instantaneous wet-out; and a high speed disperser that continues to apply shear as the batch increases in viscosity.
Fine dispersion, deagglomeration, emulsification, temperature control and degassing are all accomplished in the VersaMix, in a highly repeatable process. In addition, the vacuum cover features an explosion-proof tank light, RTD thermoprobe, CIP spray nozzles and a dedicated port for nitrogen purging.
