THE ENERGETICS INDUSTRIES MIXING 
BLENDING TECHNOLOGY OF CHOICE

 

The emergence of Resodyn Acoustic Mixers, Inc. was a direct result of its technological superiority regarding the mixing of energetic materials for the manufacturing of munitions, propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics.

ResonantAcoustic® Mixing (RAM) systems deliver the highest of safety standards while providing industry leading process, quality, and performance. RAM offers thorough mixing dispersion of energetic materials and unequalled uniformity via its unique bladeless design.

Repeatability of ultra-high processing results, material compatibility and efficiencies are critical elements to the development of energetic mixing materials. Incorporation of RAM mixing systems into energetic manufacturing processes provides all of the aforementioned qualities, and delivers 10X to 100X processing time acceleration with ease of scalability for mass production, to include continuous processing.

BAE uses RAM to mix explosive materials with higher solids loading that are too viscous to mix with conventional mixers. Click the image to visit the BAE Systems Next Generation Explosive Mixing Page with ResonantAcoustic Mixing video near the bottom of their page.

INDUSTRY EXPERT 
TESTIMONIALS

“RAM is promising route for primer formulation processing. It minimizes safety concerns with mixing, and exhibits great potential for dry mixing…”

- Materials Scientist at a major U.S. government agency

“...[RAM] allows us to obtain a better quality of the final mixtures in a reduced amount of time. Some exciting work is also being performed on propellant while using this vanguard technology, and very promising results obtained.”

- Roxel Group, a propulsion systems company

“Acoustic energy delivers efficient energy transfer...[and] reduces mixing time: hours to minutes, minutes to seconds. [We] mix in sealed vessels—waste reduction!  No impellers, blades, or shafts. RAM vessels are easy to clean out and transfer materials.”

- Munitions Engineer at U.S. Dept. of Defense

ResonantAcoustic Energetics Mixing Video

ResonantAcoustic® Mixing is the unquestioned #1 Energetics Materials mixing, coating and milling choice globally.

Loaded Polymer Blending

To illustrate a heavily loaded polymer blend, two materials of very different particle sizes are blended with a polymer surrogate. This footage documents the nature of the material blending and integration into a heavily loaded (~85%) polymer based paste. The use of RAM™ technology is ideally suited for loading of solids into polymers and mixing to a high rate of dispersion and consistent viscosity throughout the blend.
