Resonant Acoustic Mixing (RAM) is transforming chemical processing across a wide range of applications — from polymer synthesis and surface modification to catalyst preparation and reactive chemistry. Scientists and engineers at global chemical companies, national laboratories, and universities have discovered that bladeless, closed-vessel mixing delivers uniformity, speed, and process control that conventional mixers simply cannot match. Here's why RAM is the chemical mixer redefining what's possible:
- High speed and better uniformity — orders of magnitude faster
- Gentle, low-shear — no blades, no impellers, no mechanical damage
- Closed vessel operation — eliminates solvent evaporation, contamination
- Solvent-free processing — dry chemical reactions, green chemistry
- Consistent results at any scale — seamless scale-up
- Multi-functional platform — mixing, reaction, coating, surface modification
- Vacuum and temp control — process under controlled conditions
Chemical Mixer Testimonials
“ResonantAcoustic® Mixing (RAM) enables mechanochemical organic synthesis that avoids milling or crushing media, as well as bulk solvents. The RAM methodology enables significant simplification and improvement of mechanochemical olefin metathesis, the first mechanochemical strategy for ene-yne metathesis, and permits the direct, 200-fold scaling-up of the mechanochemical synthesis of pharmaceutically active sulfonylureas, without any significant changes to reaction conditions or conversion. ”
- Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2022
“Our Testing with ResonantAcoustic® technology has demonstrated filler incorporation at phenomenal rates and with very little viscous heating. This technology could have a far broader impact on the Chemical Industry than anyone is imagining today”
- Senior Process engineering specialist – Global Chemical Company
“The use of resonant acoustic mixing as a simple, rapid and readily scalable methodology for synthesizing metal–organic frameworks of different levels of complexity, including two- and three-dimensional networks, has been demonstrated”

RAM CASE STUDIES IN CHEMICAL APPLICATIONS
How RAM Has Transformed Operations in Chemical Processing
VALIDATING RAM FOR CHEMICAL MIXING AND PROCESSING
Switching your chemical processing technology is a significant decision. RAM is available for evaluation and validation through a low-risk, step-by-step process designed to build your confidence before you commit.
- Demonstration
A sales engineer will arrange an online demonstration via conference call to show you a lab scale version or
RAM so you can see for yourself how it works. In some locations, we can offer in-person visits. - Free material testing
We can arrange a free mix, coating, milling, or reaction test with your material or a suitable surrogate. You
send us the material, we process it, document it, and send it back to you for validation. Material SDS required,
no hazardous materials accepted. - Rental program
We offer the LabRAM I for a monthly rental, with the first month’s rent applying to the cost of a purchase. Try
RAM out in your lab and run as many tests as you would like. - Quotation
Once you have had time to evaluate RAM through either a demonstration, mix test, or rental, we will provide a
quote that matches your application needs, however simple or complex they may be. - Performance Testing
After purchase, we can also perform validation and testing (FAT, SAT, etc) of your new machine per your
requirements, including compliance, performance, quality, and safety tests prior to or post installation.
