Blending and Drying
The Ross line of equipment for Food applications involving blending and vacuum drying is designed to offer our customers the greatest possible flexibility.
- V and Double Cone Tumble Blender designs are most often used for the intimate dry blending of free flowing solids. The solids being blended in these units can vary in bulk density and in percentage of the total mixture. Materials being blended are constantly being split and intermixed as the shell rotates. Normal cycle times are typically in the range of 15 minutes, however can be less depending on the difficulty of blending.
- Vertical Cone Screw Blenders are offered for applications in which floor space is limited, a wide selection of models from lab sizes through full-scale production are available.
- Ribbon Blenders are available in many capacities and configurations. Most can be shipped to your plant directly from stock.
- For drying and granulation applications, our Vertical Blenders, Cylindrical Blenders or our Double Planetary and PowerMix equipped for vacuum drying may be ideal. These systems allow you to blend and dry in a closed two-step process, in a single machine.
In both Horizontal and Vertical Blender designs, Ross offers many options to suit your application precisely. Complete control systems are available, along with such options such as high speed lump breakers, sanitary construction and a variety of designs for stuffing boxes and discharge valves.
