LabRAM II ResonantAcoustic Mixer

By Resodyn Acoustic Mixers, Inc.

The LabRAM is a sophisticated bench-top mixer that exploits low frequency, high intensity, acoustic energy to rapidly fluidize and disperse as much as 500 g of a variety of materials. ResonantAcoustic Mixing: Vertical vessel movement 60 times per second at up to 100 g of acceleration generates intense particle motion. The primary mixing mechanism is particle redistribution driven by inter-particle collisions. Particle motion is entirely random, preventing de-mixing. Active vapor pockets move rapidly throughout the powder matrix creating highly active mixing zones.

The LabRAM II™ is used for high-performance laboratory mixing and processing of a wide range of materials, including powders, liquids, and viscous substances, making it ideal for formulation development and pilot-scale production. What types of materials can the LabRAM II process? The LabRAM II is designed to handle a very wide range of materials. Its key processing capabilities include mixing and processing any combination of solids/powders (from nano-scale and up), liquids/gases, and viscous/slurry materials, as well as coating, milling, and grinding processes. More specifically, RAM technology can efficiently mix virtually any combination of materials, processing them at nearly any particle size or behavior. Whether cohesive, agglomerated, nano-scale, or temperature-sensitive, a RAM mixer can control temperatures, apply vacuum, dry or spray-coat one particle on another, and effectively process any combination of powders, liquids, and high-viscosity materials. This includes liquids, pastes, and powders ranging from nano sizes to large particles, as well as highly viscous materials. In summary, the labRAM II lab mixer can process: - Solids & Powders — from nano-scale particles up to large particle sizes - Liquids & Gases - Viscous & Slurry materials - Cohesive or agglomerated materials - Temperature-sensitive materials (with temperature monitoring and control) - Pastes It can also perform coating, milling, and grinding processes, and optionally operate under vacuum for additional processing flexibility. What is the maximum batch capacity of the LabRAM II? The standard capacity is rated at 2.2 lb (1 kg). But this is not the whole story. Capacity is affected by the material itself and its rheological properties, by the acceleration at which you are processing, and even the weight of your container. Your capacity could be significantly higher or lower than 2.2 lb (1 kg). Speak to your sales representative about your material and schedule a mix test for an accurate capacity based on your application details. How does acoustic mixing differ from traditional mixing methods? Acoustic mixing is the proven method of superior mixing and processing. It is bladeless, and is driven by vertical oscillation of the mix vessel at ~60 Hz and acceleration up to 100 g. Because the machine operates at resonance, it is energy efficient. The high energy motion drives mixing energy throughout the mix vessel for rapid and homogenous results beyond what conventional mixing can achieve. Traditional mixing methods vary, but generally rely on spinning paddles, tumbling vessels, or kneading action. Each method has significant limitations due to uneven energy distribution, excessive heat generation, slow processing, and material segregation. Simple mixing applications may achieve a suitable result, but the advanced processing needs commonly found in energetics, pharmaceuticals, advanced materials, batteries, additive manufacturing, and complex chemistries are often underserved by traditional mixing and processing methods. RAM is the processing technology that repeatedly solves the most difficult mixing, milling, coating, and chemical reaction challenges. Can processes developed on the LabRAM II be scaled to larger production systems? Yes, Resodyn Mixers has developed an entire line of mixers from lab scale to production. What applications and industries are currently using a LabRAM II? Industries of all kinds are discovering the many benefits of RAM technology including, pharmaceutical, battery and energy storage, energetics, aerospace, cosmetics, adhesives and sealants, mechanochemistry, additive manufacturing, sintered materials, electronics, ceramics, lubricants and many other specialty materials.

The RAM 5 represents the point where Resodyn's revolutionary ResonantAcoustic® technology truly steps into industrial-scale production. Mix-in-Case & Vessel Flexibility One of the RAM 5's most powerful and strategically important capabilities is its support for mix-in-case production. Because the RAM 5 is a non-invasive mixer, mixing can be done in sealed vessels of varying sizes and designs, and it can accommodate disposable or end-use vessels such as 6-gallon steel drums. This means materials — including energetics, advanced composites, and high-viscosity formulations — can be mixed directly in their final shipping or deployment container, eliminating hazardous transfer steps, reducing handling risk, cutting waste, and delivering enormous cost savings across the production lifecycle. The technology allows for considerable flexibility in the size and design of the vessel used for mixing, meaning batch mixes can be easily scaled from lab-scale quantities up to pilot and production mix amounts. RAM technology is well suited for mixing powder-powder blends, liquids, slurries, and viscous materials. Seamless Scale-Up RAM technology delivers direct scaling from bench to production levels with minimal or no adjustments in parameters or timing — meaning formulations developed on a LabRAM or OmniRAM translate directly to the RAM 5 without costly reformulation or requalification. The RAM 5 is also compatible with Resodyn's Continuous Acoustic Mixing (CAM) technology, enabling non-stop throughput for high-demand production environments. Compare the RAM family ResonantAcoustic® mixing scaled to your needs, from the lab to the production floor. RAM5 FAQ What is the RAM5 used for?
