Planetary Mixers

The ROSS line of Double Planetary Mixers, which come in a wide range of configurations and sizes ranging from ½ pint to 750 gallons, are dependable workhorses for mixing thick, sticky, or putty-like materials. Read more...

Dual planetary scraped surface agitator mixes viscous foods in 30 seconds.

The Model DH-53 ARDE Double Helixx Mixer can quickly and completely mix viscous and particulate type food products such as hash, candies,preserves, stews, pet foods and many others. Read more...

Positively mix, knead, and stir high viscosity mixtures and pastes.

Mix high viscosity materials in half the time. You may have heard claims like that before, but chances are you've never seen anything like this before!

Double Helixx mixers from ARDE Barinco are built around two separate mixing shafts with a unique open helix design. The tools are intermeshed, and counter-r... Read more...

The ROSS Double Planetary Mixer is widely used for high-precision mixing, granulation and vacuum drying, but remains the industry authority for rugged applications requiring enormous torque. Patented High Viscosity “HV” Blades work in tandem to knead and mix from a vertical orientation, augmented by large shafts and generous bearing spreads -- an ideal combination for tough-t...

Dental composites are synthetic polymers filled with reinforcing glass and/or ceramic particles.

A typical mixing procedure starts with blending two or more monomers often of significantly different viscosities. Various particle size fillers are then added to the liquid binder and mixed under vacuum until a homogenous paste is obtained. High amounts of fillers render most dental c... Read more...

High viscosity industrial mixtures, regardless of their end use or material composition, are largely prepared through planetary mixing. Finished products and intermediates in the form of pastes or gels, dough-like compounds and other semi-solids formulations share this common processing approach. Within this category, the classic Double Planetary Mixer (DPM) is arguably the most popularl... Read more...

A major global confectionary company approached ROSS to improve their process of manufacturing a chocolate product. They were using a kitchen-style single planetary mixer that was unable to handle the high viscosity peaks that occur during mixing. The material spikes to over 1 million centipoise and finishes around 20,000 cps. Read more...

Double Helixx mixers from ARDE Barinco are built around two separate mixing shafts with a unique open helix design. The tools are inter-meshed, and counter-rotate upon each other to mix, stir, knead and disperse high-viscosity materials. Read more...
