Produces constant high speed for high final fineness
- Grinding jars from 12 to 500 mL
- Reproducible results
- Multi-language GUI
The PM 100 planetary ball mill is a benchtop unit designed to pulverize soft, fibrous and brittle materials. The mill develops extremely high centrifugal forces resulting in energy input that is up to 50% higher than in other planetary ball mills. It has a single grinding station for grinding jars with a nominal volume of 12 to 500 mL and can achieve a final fineness of <1 µm. The unit can store up to 10 combinations of speed, grinding time and interval settings for use with repetitive grinding tasks. All relevant data can be entered or called up via the multi-language graphic menu interface with one-button operation. The PM 100's offers automatic grinding chamber ventilation for grinding with solvents. Extraction fan exchanges air at a per hour rate more than 20 times the chamber volume. The single station mill features a counterweight that can be adjusted on an inclined guide rail. The counterweight allows for compensation when using the different size grinding jars with differing centers of gravity and avoiding oscillations of the machine. PM 100 can accommodate two stacked grinding jars. The "comfort" range of grinding jars has been designed for extreme working conditions such as long-term trials, wet grinding, high mechanical loads, and maximum speeds as well as for mechanical alloying.
