Abstract
A mix head assembly including a mix chamber having a mixer rotatably mounted therein. The mixer extends for a longitudinal length and defines a multiple of vanes which agitate the fluid material components as the mixer is rotated. A plunger is movably mounted in the mix chamber relative to the mixer. As the plunger is driven relative the mixer, the plunger scrapes the fluid material off the mixer such that no remnants remain within the mix chamber.
