Rollo-Mixers for Stone, Clay, and Glass Samples
Featured Product from Continental Products Corp.
Blending and Coating Stone, Clay, and Glass in the Rollo Mixer
Many MLB baseball infields, plate areas and pitchers’ mounds are clay packing mixtures and field conditioners made in the Rollo- Mixer. Treating clays with liquid additives is ideal with Continental’s unique Free-Fall Processing®. This award-winning coating technology in our industrial mixers for clays allow our customers to apply small percentages of expensive liquids onto all of the particles’ surface areas. Other applications, like blending glass powders, must be uniformly mixed going into the furnace, so that the viscosity of the molten glass coming out of the furnace is consistent. This creates a uniformly coated finished product.
Stone, Clay, and Glass Samples made with Rollo-Mixers ®
Stone, clay and glass products made with Rollo-Mixers range from polishing chunks of recycled glass and surface treating micron scale glass spheres to treating a variety of clays for tires, baseball fields and golf course landscape. The lighting industry has used the Continental Rollo-Mixer® Batch Mixer for many years to blend glass cullet and other constituents that are formed into products like glass insulators. These samples are as different in use as they are in density and are all made with excellent results in the Rollo-Mixer.
