Published: 21-Jan-2021

Features include gas purging capability, a 16” pneumatically-operated discharge valve, 5-passage rotary union, explosion-proof brake motor and PLC controls

Charles Ross & Son has launched the Double Cone Tumble Blender (Model DCB), designed for large-scale blending of free-flowing solids in laboratory, pilot and production sizes.

In a repeatable process, minor and micro ingredients are distributed throughout the batch more gently than in the more common V-shaped geometry, the company claims, without damaging fragile or sensitive components.

Rated for vacuum up to 29.5"Hg, the jacketed 75 ft3 blender heats and dries product as it is being blended. Other features include gas purging capability, a 16” pneumatically-operated discharge valve, 5-passage rotary union, explosion-proof brake motor and PLC controls.
