Charles Ross launches new high shear mixer system

The SLIM is a high shear mixer system which uses rotor/stator assembly to generate a powerful vacuum to draw solids into the mix chamber.

The liquid stream enters the mixer and encounters the powder addition under intense shear conditions.

The resulting dispersion is expelled centrifugally through the stator openings at high velocity.

A ‘hose & wand’ attachment to the powder inlet of the SLIM allows operators to conveniently draw lightweight, free-flowing powders straight from within the bulk container.

Other installations hard-pipe the inline mixer to multiple batch tanks and simple valves are used to divert finished product downstream or switch instantly from source vessel to another.

The Ross SLIM technology is also available on batch style rotor/stators.
