A new agitator-blade design for this company’s Double Planetary Mixer features two identical rectangular stirrers with upward rake fingers. Designed to rotate on their own axes, while also orbiting the mixing vessel on a common axis, the stirrers are ideal for batching dry-powder blends, wet granulations and similar formulations. Interchangeable helical blades are available as options, and allow the mixer to be used for viscous pastes and putty-like materials. — Charles Ross & Son Co., Hauppauge, N.Y.
