Meet the Colossus: The Future of
High-Capacity Grinding Is Here

Debuting at IPPE 2026 in Atlanta | Booth #C20139

Industrial food production just got a lot more powerful. Rome Grinding Solutions is proud to unveil The Colossus—our most advanced, efficient, and ambitious grinder.

As the food production landscape evolves, so does the demand for more intelligent systems that maximize throughput, optimize labor, and ensure food safety. The Colossus does all this and more, ushering in a new era of dual-stage grinding.

What Is the Colossus?

The Colossus is a two-stage grinding solution engineered to streamline processing while boosting productivity. It provides a pre-breaking system, feeding directly from the upper grinder (the Colossus) into a lower-mounted Titan or Maximus.

This revolutionary design eliminates the need for separate feed equipment between stages. The result? Fewer steps, fewer machines, less mess, and much more efficiency.

One Unified Frame. One Serious Output.

The Colossus isn’t just another grinder. It’s a complete grinding system built on a custom-engineered frame that perfectly aligns both grinders. This engineered structure ensures maximum stability, power transfer, and sanitation access.

Rome will offer the Colossus mated with a Titan or Maximus, which is configured to meet your production needs right out of the gate. However, suppose you already own a Titan or Maximus. In that case, Rome can assess your setup and potentially convert your existing grinder to pair with the Colossus frame, eliminating the need to purchase a brand-new unit.

“The Colossus is designed to handle the harshest products without extreme effort,” said Deven Paulsen, Lead Engineer at Rome. “Combining two grinding stages in one system gives food producers a cleaner, smarter, and more efficient path to high-volume grinding.”

What Makes the Colossus Different?

  • Dual‑Stage System in One Unit: Pre‑break and initial grind are built into one frame, resulting in less handling and faster workflow.
  • Custom Frame Design: Engineered chassis to align both grinders, ensuring consistent torque transfer and safety.
  • Extreme Cold Handling: Built to grind frozen or temperate frozen product without pre‑temping in many cases, protecting equipment and reducing prep time.
  • Space & Cost Efficiency: Rather than two separate machines (plus conveyors/feeders), the Colossus setup saves foot space, energy, and capital investment.

Designed for the Demands of Tomorrow

Whether you’re producing ground beef, poultry, pet food, or alternative proteins, The Colossus gives your operation the power and precision to scale confidently. It’s the ideal solution for:

  • Large-scale processors looking to consolidate floor space
  • Facilities with labor shortages requiring greater automation
  • Operations with demanding sanitation and food safety standards
  • Teams aiming to reduce maintenance and material handling

Ready to Power Up?

The Colossus is built for the food producers who push boundaries and demand better. It’s the biggest thing we’ve ever built and the most efficient way to grind.
