| Description | Cutting mills are suitable for the grinding of soft, medium-hard, tough, elastic, fibrous, and heterogeneous mixes of products. The new Cutting Mill SM 300 excels especially in the tough jobs where other cutting mills fail.
The high torque of the new 3 kW drive with RES technology (additional Cutting mills are suitable for the grinding of soft, medium-hard, tough, elastic, fibrous, and heterogeneous mixes of products. The new Cutting Mill SM 300 excels especially in the tough jobs where other cutting mills fail.
The high torque of the new 3 kW drive with RES technology (additional flywheel mass) allows for an exceptionally effective preliminary size reduction of heterogeneous mixtures, such as waste or electronic components. Analytical fineness is often achieved in one working run.
The cutting mill is used successfully for a great variety of materials. The sample is only moderately warmed up during the grinding process so that the mill is perfectly suitable for grinding temperature-sensitive materials. Another innovation is the wide, freely selectable speed range from 700 to 3,000 min-1. In combination with the wide choice of bottom sieves, hoppers and collecting vessels, the mill can be easily adapted to varying application requirements.
Features - Powerful size reduction thanks to 3 kW drive with high torque and RES technology
- Perfect adaptation to application requirements by variable speed from 700 to 3,000 min-1
- Optimum cutting effects thanks to double acting cutting bars
- Quick and easy cleaning due to fold-back hopper, smooth surfaces and push-fit rotor
- Defined final fineness due to bottom sieves with aperture sizes from 0.25 - 20 mm
- Wide range of accessories including various hoppers, collection systems, rotors and sieves
- Highest safety standards due to engine brake, central locking device, electronic safety check and base frame

... Read More | The XRD-Mill McCrone was specially developed for the preparation of samples for subsequent X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mill is used for applications in geology, chemistry, mineralogy and materials science, quality control as well as R&D. Because of its unique grinding motion, the XRD-Mill McCrone The XRD-Mill McCrone was specially developed for the preparation of samples for subsequent X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mill is used for applications in geology, chemistry, mineralogy and materials science, quality control as well as R&D. Because of its unique grinding motion, the XRD-Mill McCrone is particularly effective for this analytical method: The 48 cylindrical grinding elements grind the samples gently via friction. The result is a short grinding time with almost no sample loss and an exceptionally narrow particle size distribution. The crystal lattice is almost entirely preserved during grinding operation, a pre-requisite for meaningful X-ray diffraction results.
Features: - Crystal lattice preserved during grinding operation
- Very narrow and reproducible particle size distribution
- Minimal cross contamination
- Compact, bench-top sized model
- Suitable for dry and wet grinding
