New V-Cone Tumble Blenders

Charles Ross & Son Co. has added 5-, 10-, and 25-cu-ft V-Cone tumble blenders to its inventory of stock mixing equipment ready for immediate purchase or short-term trial/rental.

Ideal for intimate dry blending of free-flowing solids, V-Cone tumble blenders, or simply V-Blenders, are rated for 125 lb/cu ft product bulk density and feature stainless steel 316 wetted parts polished to 240-grit finish. Other standard features include hinged covers, a butterfly discharge valve, TEFC direct drive gearmotor, and a safety gate with limit switch.

Pictured is a laboratory model 1-cu-ft V-Cone tumble blender available for free-of-charge testing at the Ross Test & Development Center in Hauppauge, NY. Utilizing the end user’s raw materials, mixing simulation trials, and proof-of-concept demonstrations performed at the lab are a way to confirm blender design, cycle time, operating speeds, horsepower and other process variables.  

Offered in many sizes from 0.25 to 100 cu ft, V-Blenders can be customized with optional features, such as vacuum capability, intensifier bar, spray nozzles, heating/cooling jacket, explosion-proof motor, and built-in controls. Heavy-duty models capable of blending dense applications up to 200 lb/cu ft are available.

In addition to the V-Cone vessel design, double cone tumble blenders are also offered, along with other styles of dry blending equipment including ribbon blenders, paddle blenders and vertical blenders.
