In 1960 our Dad, D. Coyne Callaghan, started developing first Rollo-Mixer® to mix dairy feed with liquid molasses. The same principle of gentle, uniform blending with or without liquid additives, is the driver behind each of the six rotary drum mixers, blenders and coaters we manufacture today. Continuous improvements, a commitment to excellence, and direct expertise allow our customers maintain top quality performance in the field.
