What does a ROSS Batch High Shear Mixer do?
The ROSS Batch High Shear Mixer is ideal for reducing the size of agglomerates and droplets in fine dispersions and emulsions to create scalable, highly repeatable products.
How does a ROSS Batch High Shear Mixer work?
The Batch High Shear Mixer design consists of a single stage four-blade rotor that turns at high speed within a stationary stator. As the rotating blades pass each opening in the stator, they mechanically shear particles and droplets, and expel material at high velocity into the surrounding mix, creating intense hydraulic shear. As fast as material is expelled, more is drawn into the bottom of the rotor/stator generator, which promotes continuous flow and fast mixing.
Design - The batch model is made with high quality type 316 stainless steel wetted parts and can be either fixed mounted to a vessel, or suspended over a vessel on a portable or floor-mounted lift. The mobile configuration offers the flexibility to use a single mixer for multiple vessels in different locations. Large production models (25HP and larger) require a floor-mounted air/oil hydraulic lift. Utilizing a lift allows the operator to vary the position of the stator to process different materials and batch sizes.
