ROSS Designs Custom Multi-Shaft Mixer

摘要

Ross recently designed a custom 150-gallon Triple Shaft Mixer with elaborate automation and safety functions (ROSS VersaMix Model VMC-150). Notable among the special added features are six pneumatic clamps rated for 4000 lbs. each for remote locking of the mix vessel to the mixer cover designed for 29.5" Hg vacuum and five psi internal pressure. The clamps likewise function as redundant limit switches, allowing for operation only when secured. The VMC-150 also includes automated valves for powder feed and CIP liquids, RTD multipoint temperature sensor, built-in vacuum pump assembly, load cell system and centralized HMI.
