Pesticide Gel Production In A Ross VersaMix Triple-Shaft Mixer

Herbicides and insecticides in gel form enable easy, accurate and controlled application for increased efficacy and safety. Compared to traditional pesticides that are sprayed or sprinkled, gel formulations are smeared onto targeted surfaces which reduces the risk of chemical runoff and contamination.

The Ross VersaMix Multi-Shaft Mixer is a proven and reliable machine utilized in the production of pesticide gels and more broadly, other gel preparations including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and personal care products. Equipped with two or more independently-driven agitators working in tandem, the VersaMix delivers a robust combination of high shear dispersion and laminar bulk flow throughout a wide viscosity range. The most popular combination is the three-wing anchor, high speed saw-tooth disperser and rotor/stator high shear mixer.
