Tech Brief: Ribbon Blenders Are Ideal For Coating And Mixing Processes
4/5/2011
In certain industries, mixing of solid materials is required not only to blend different components, but also to intimately coat a minor or trace ingredient onto the rest of the other particles in the batch. To maximize the functionality of the minor ingredient, individual particles of the bulk material have to be evenly coated. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Tech Brief: Electronic Variable Speed Promotes Processing Flexibility In Ribbon Blenders - From Soft Start To Discharge
4/5/2011
Over the years, many ribbon blenders were built without any provision for starting at slow speed. Unfortunately, a dead load start presents many disadvantages, all of which increase costs. The buyer must choose between using an over-sized drive train that is capable of delivering the peak horsepower needed to get the batch moving or a lower torque drive train that is appropriate for powering the blender once it is running but overloaded when starting.

Tech Brief: Eliminate 'Fish Eyes' In Your Mix
4/5/2011
Inefficient mixing can lead to agglomerates and "fish eyes" which are difficult to disperse once formed. Using a high shear mixer equipped for powder induction helps prevent the formation of agglomerates, maximizes yield, and cuts cycle time. By Charles Ross and Son Company

Automation In The Food Industry
3/15/2011
Automation is one of those terms that almost defines itself; automation is, well, that which is automated. More precisely, automation is the use of control systems linked with other computer technologies to control production in industrial operations with minimal human intervention.
