Ross offers protective light curtains providing automatic safety shutoff of Tumble Blenders when an operator crosses a defined security boundary. Due to the nature of the rotating mix chamber, a safety railing is supplied standard on all Ross Tumble Blenders. 

As end users seek advanced processing and safety features to reduce production steps and create a safer workplace environment, Ross continues to develop special customizations including multi-purpose intensifier/spray bars, abrasion-resistant valves and automated recipe controls.
