The 600-gallon VersaMix Model VM-600 from Ross is qualified for high-speed subsurface powder induction with a proprietary Ross Solids/Liquid Injection Manifold (SLIM). The SLIM function allows for the incorporation of powder or liquid phases into the rotor-stator mix head,  causing instant wet-out as it rotates at 3600 RPM.

Available in laboratory sizes up to 4000 gallons, the mixer uses a dual-post triple-shaft design for the processing of substantial powder phases along with an anchor agitator to move the product from the high shear rotor stator head to a high-speed dispersing head, which deagglomerates any remaining fisheyes. The SLIM feature also enables the device to mix large batches and accelerate loading phases.
