1 Innovation inPlanetary MixersRoss Planetary MixersRoss has been the leading manufacturer of Planetary Mixers around the worldsince we introduced the original Double Planetary Mixer more than 80 years ago. Today, Ross operates five plants in the USA, along with Ross owned plants inChina and India. The Ross family of Planetary Mixers includes sizes from1/2-pint to 750 gallons and a multitude of options to meet theneeds of any industrial WORLD S LARGEST INVENTORY OF Mixers IN STOCK FOR FAST DELIVERYOur multi-million dollar inventory of Mixers and blenders is yourultimate assurance that you can have the equipmentyou need, when you need it. Test on your own process line After you have testeda Ross Planetary mixer in our laboratory, a Ross trialunit allows you to evaluate our mixer in your ownplant before you buy WORLDWIDE STANDARD FOR QUALITY, RELIABILITY AND INNOVATION23 POWER AND PROCESS FLEXIBILITYI deal for mixing and kneading viscous pastes orputty-like materials, the Ross Double Planetary canbe engineered for operation in many industries,from hot melt adhesives to microelec tronicsmanufacturing.

2 Configurations are available toapply the precise combination of power andshear rates you require, and Ross technicalexperts are available in our laboratory to helpoptimize your mixing new DPM Double Planetary Mixer canhandle many ultra-high viscosity materials thathave generally required a double-arm Double Planetary Mixer provides analternative that is much less expensive, andrequires less maintenance. Unlike the double-armkneader, the standard Double Planetary Mixerhas no packing glands or bearings submerged inthe product zone. Sizes range from 1/2-pint tomore than 750 Ross Double Planetary MixerNow you can see an onlinedemonstration of the Ross DoublePlanetary Mixer in action! Pointyour web browser to our homepage, and click on Animations. Blades for ultra-high viscosities Up to 6 million centipoise The helical curve andgraduated down-thrust cross-section of the newHV Blades prevent heavy materials from climbing up into the vacuum hood andcharging ports.

3 A smooth mixing actioneliminates torque spikes during the mixingprocess and significantly increases theviscosity range of the Double Planetary sleek new DPM Double Planetary design encloses the drive componets andauxiliary integrated control systems aredesigned and built by Ross Systems andControls. They can be pre-programmed andpre-wired, so start-up is fast and need for third-party selection to match your performancerequirements Numerous options areavailable for sealing the drive shaft, stirrershafts and the vacuum hood. Seal designsinclude such choices as Teflon chevron v-rings,dry-running mechanical seals, elastomerico-rings, and lip seals in materials such asNitrile, Viton, silicon and machining for superior vacuumcapabilities Vacuum hoods and interchange -able vessels are precisely machined for aperfect fit.

4 The result you can sustain anextremely high level of vacuum (29" Hg).4 Select the right blade design, and the rightflow pattern, to optimize the mixing processin your Blades Ross s patented HV Bladesproduce excellent axial and radial flow,and easily handle medium to ultra-highviscosity materials. The HV Blades preventheavy batch materials from climbing-up the blades extending the working rangeof the Double Planetary Mixer by severalmillion Blades The proven choicefor many low to high viscosityapplications, these blades mix with apowerful kneading action. They aresuitable for thorough wet or dry blendingregardless of the product s Blades Ross Finger Blades areoften preferred for special applications thatrequire the mixing of delicate solids andfibers. These blades can also be customdesigned to fine-tune axial flow andmeet the specific requirements of Planetary MIXER OPERATIONIn a Ross Double Planetary Mixer, two planetaryblades rotate on their own axes, while they orbit themix vessel on a common axis.

5 The bladescontinuously advance along the periphery of thevessel, removing material from the vessel wall andtransporting it to the interior. This positive mixing action serves several purposes. Complete mixing In only a few minutes, the bladespass through every point in the vessel and promotefast and thorough mixing. Efficient heat transfer By preventing a layer ofmaterial from accumulating on the vessel wall, themixer ensures efficient heat transfer and evendistribution of heat throughout the batch criticallyimportant concerns for heat-sensitive , ultra-high viscosity capacity with HV Blades The mixer can handle materials of extremely highviscosities. With conventional blades, the DoublePlanetary Mixer can operate up to million centipoise.* With Ross HV Blades, speciallydesigned for heavy materials, the operating limit ismuch higher approximately 6 million motion during 1 revolution3 revolutionsAfter only 36 revolu -tions, the blades of theDouble Planetary Mixerhave contacted virtuallythe entire provides many designsspecialized to meet the needs ofdemanding applications.

(570 2,850)The new DPM Double Planetary Mixer designed for ultra-high viscosity MOST VERSATILE PLANETARYMIXER EVER CREATEDThe patented Ross PowerMix* offers remarkableversatility, which makes it ideal for applications inwhich a series of mixing stages require severaltypes of mixing action.

8 In one continuous mix cycle, for example,the PowerMix can apply high shear andquickly disperse a powder in a low-viscosity liquid. As the materialthickens, the PowerMix can continue the mixing process even after theproduct has reached a high-viscosity,non-flowing state. With this versatility, the PowerMix canoften combine the mixing action of twomixers allowing you to retire twopiecesof equipment and cut the cycle time by50% or OPERATIONThe PowerMix is unique because itcombines a Planetary blade and a highspeed disperser with the characteristicplanetary motion of a Double PlanetaryMixer. Both agitators are in constantmotion. The Planetary blade contin -uously sweeps the vessel wall and feedsmaterial directly into the high shear zoneof the orbiting high speed disperser accelerating the mixing Ross PowerMixIn the Ross PowerMix, the Planetary blade (A) and HSD (B) revolveon their own axes, while they both orbit the vessel on a commonaxis.

9 By constantly advancing the agitators into the batch material,the PowerMix can apply intense mixing action while it prevents thelocalized build-up of see an online demonstration of the Ross PowerMix in action,point your web browser to ourhomepage, and click on Animations. * Patent No. 4,697,929(A)(B)7 The Ross PowerMix can be supplied with your choice of highspeed, high shear agitators. Here, a high speed chopperblade substitutes for a high speed disperser. Multiple highspeed disperser blades can also be supplied, with theirpositions adjustable on a single models, like this 2 gallonPowerMix, are extremelyefficient for either benchtopprocess development or small-volume production. Scale-up issmooth and predictable. Labmodels are often supplied witha discharge system mounted onthe same bench a highlyefficient, self-contained use of multiple change cans can transform a traditionalbatch mixing system into a semi-continuous system.
