Rollo Mixer Customer Comments
When it comes to performance, never anything better than a Rollo-Mixer®
Continental Rollo-Mixers are the best batch blenders made on earth.
In addition to greater mixing capacity, reduced mixer running costs, the ability to do more with the type of products we can produce, improved product quality, and a significant lowering of the coefficient of variation in our mixes. All these factors have influenced our decision as to why we chose your Rollo-Mixer, as our mixer for the future of my company.
We are doing many types of feed in the Rollo-Mixer! Every feed company we work with will ask us – who’s mixer we use. And we tell them it’s a Continental and they don’t ask any more questions. They know it makes a quality product. Your mixer has a strong reputation!
I’ve researched a lot of feed mixers and nothing makes as good a looking feed as the Rollo-Mixer. Nothing!
I’m retired now from the maintenance department of a major animal health manufacturer. I’ve been around every type of mixer – you name it! Double Ribbon, Vertical, Cement, Paddle, Cone and other rotary drum mixers… Your Rollo-Mixer was the best mixer! The CV’s were the best of them all!! Even better than you’ll ever get from other rotary drum mixers!
We are very happy with the system you have provided us. Everybody loves it. Thank you for all your help
Purchased our first Rollo-Mixer in 1998 & have never looked for anything different since. Great sales & customer service. Always willing to help with any issues or questions that come up. We highly recommend this company for your blending or coating needs
Continental Products Corp make top-of-the-line equipment. We have used their Rollo-Mixer Mark VI for over 15 years and just installed a new one. Awesome fertilizer mixer! Great support and a very easy company to work with
I remember you and your bothers well, my brother Dean and I were actually at your plant back when I was with Erie Foods in Rochelle, IL. Have always been a big fan of your equipment and company!
Looks like Continental has gone above and beyond with this engineering detail. They’ve thought of everything!
I have always appreciated your professional approach to the projects/trials, the quality, and accuracy of provided technical information, your knowledge of the equipment, and their specifications. Looks like you do truly enjoy what you are doing. Please keep doing it as there are many more clients out there (like us) that would equally appreciate working with you and your team.
The best mixing system on the market today. Gentle, thorough, clean, and timely. The Callaghan family are leaders in this industry and provide outstanding customer support and service.
I’ve never seen anything make a more homogenous product.
They care about your products and can help you perfect your formulas and process.
“After processing A LOT of available information and getting several references and recommendations from various people we know in the manufacturing industry, your blenders floated to the top of our list….you have an impressive product.”
“It coats evenly, it’s smooth, it’s low impact, it works the best of any other style batch mixers we have used”
“Liquids are applied directly onto the surface of the powders for even dispersion, allowing us to save significant money by using less liquids.”
“Free-Fall Processing® gives us the finesse needed to apply liquids with precision, making our product #1 on the market today.”
“Rollo-Mixers give us the best in Uniform Blending and Precise Liquid Addition on our powders”
“The Rollo-Mixer gives us the best results of any rotary drum mixer we have used”
“Best plastic pellet blender on the market today.”
“Never in my 30 years have I had a relationship with a vendor like you guys. I can always count on your quick reply, instant service or upgrades for our blenders. Your knowledge has saved me on a couple deviation beatings as well as a considerable amount of product that could have been destroyed without your input. Thanks!
“Continental mixers, are the finest for mixing radically different density materials or Integrating trace materials, bar none. Our batch cycle is 3-5 min for a 18-20,000 pound load, with a discharge rate of 3,000 pounds per min– with a total, total clean out, no residual. They last forever! Our Rollo-Mixer is over 30 years old!
“The Rollo out lasted three other blenders – it’s the best! We’ve picked up a lot of customers because of the quality of our products. Our business grew from 30,000 to 110,000 tons per year.
“ We blend 25,000 lbs uniformly in 3 minutes with no re-work.”
“We sell quality and uniformity. Better than our competition, because of the Mk VII Rollo!”
“We have not had a batch off spec since we put the Rollo-Mixers on line in 1998. Incredible, since we run 24/7/365 and make over 1 million lbs per day in them.
“If you are just looking to use it as a blending device, all the work I have done with the Continental mixers indicate that it is an excellent blending unit. The mixers in Cottage Grove are used to blend multiple powders with different densities and particle sizes, into an evenly blended mixture. Due to the requirement of well blended material for that process, the Continental mixer was chosen above all other mixers tested.
“When we saw the test results from our blend trials, it was an OMG moment!
“I know I said this many times while I was on site, but I am really impressed with the quality of work in the mixer you have built for us. Hats off to your team for making another fine product that will last for many, many years in our production facility.
“It is fascinating to me that you can homogeneously mix 17,000 Kg’s with all those ingredients so quickly. And the drum rotates at only 2.3 RPM – It really blows my mind!
“You made a number of profound contributions and critical changes on this project to get us where we are today! We made beautiful product! Can’t thank you enough! All of us here owe you a great deal of gratitude!
“Extremely gentle blends for very friable crackers, trail mixes, and fruit blends and more. Our Mk X blends show no damage to cashews, which was our goal”
With the MK IX, we were able to produce in 16 hours what we had projected to make in 24.
Takes 10 minutes to cure between coats, whether we are making a 150 lb batch in our MK IX pilot coater or 11,500 lb batches in our MK IX Production Coater.
We ran over 270 batch trials on our entire product line and based on the results, R&D has recommended we buy two production 101-333/90s MK IX coaters!
We did not have to clean the inside of the mixer throughout the entire validation process!
“We have several new products we want to produce that require encapsulation of two small element powders to a main ingredient. We need the uniformity claimed by your process. It cannot quite be achieved in a ribbon mixer.
“Our coated powders improved dramatically in followability and liquid dispersion with the Mk VII-1. We love Continental’s enthusiasm and expertise in helping optimize our product.”
“The Mk VII-1 gives us consistent uniformity with precision accuracy for adding liquids”.
“We achieve an assay of 50ppm, and are on spec with every batch in our Rollo-Mixer®.”
“Continental Rollo-Mixers, are the finest for mixing radically different density materials or Integrating trace minerals, bar none.”
“We have not had a batch off spec since we put the Rollo-Mixers on line in 1998. We run 24/7/365 and make over 1 million lbs per day.”
“The Mk VII-1 made our product the leading biological growth enhancer on the market”.
