Multi-Agitator Mixing System Handles Specialty Applications

ROSS VersaMix multi-shaft mixers optimize the processing of medium- to high-viscosity products. These versatile mixers are efficiently used across a range of applications with viscosities ranging up to several hundred thousand centipoise such as pastes, gels, slurries, and suspensions.

ROSS has engineered a purpose-built VM-450-gal VersaMix that features three independently-driven agitators, including a two-wing center-mounted agitator with contoured bottom and Teflon scrapers to efficiently motivate viscous product throughout the mixing zone, a long helical flight agitator to produce better top-to-bottom mixing, and a dual propeller agitator for low shear, high-flow mixing.

The tank of the VersaMix is fabricated from durable 304 stainless steel, designed for vacuum operation and internal pressures of up to 50 psi. For efficient discharge, a two-way, flush tank ball valve has been integrated, while a 14-in. manway provides access for ingredient additions and cleaning operations. Through a 7-in. color touchscreen interface, operators can monitor key parameters in real-time.
