Read More | The mixer mill MM 500 nano is a compact, versatile bench-top unit which has been developed specially for dry, wet and cryogenic grinding of up to 2 x 45 ml sample material within seconds. With a maximum frequency of 35 Hz, it generates enough energy to produce particles in the nanometer range. The The mixer mill MM 500 nano is a compact, versatile bench-top unit which has been developed specially for dry, wet and cryogenic grinding of up to 2 x 45 ml sample material within seconds. With a maximum frequency of 35 Hz, it generates enough energy to produce particles in the nanometer range. The robust high-performance drive makes the mill suitable for long-term grinding processes up to 99 hours. Hence, the MM 500 nano is the first mixer mill in the market to provide a real alternative to grinding in a planetary ball mill – with more comfortable handling and less warming effects. - powerful grinding by impact and friction with up to 35 Hz

The instrument runs steadily and smoothly, even with heavy grinding sets, at maximum speed thanks to the new Stabilized-Plane-Drive.
With its robust design, the RS 200 has proven to be ideal for use in the building materials sector (cement), in geology, mineralogy, metallurgy and in power plants. Due to the high end fineness and speed the RS 200 is the perfect mill when it comes to preparing samples for spectral analysis.
Features - Reproducible results due to "Stabilized-Plane-Drive" (avoid tumbling of the grinding set)
- Safety interlock
- Variable speed 700 - 1,500 min-1
- Extremely short grinding time
- Agate recognition for automatic speed reduction
- 10 SOPs can be stored
- No sample loss thanks to optimum o-ring seal
- Wide range of materials for contamination free grinding
- Noise-insulated grinding chamber
- Quick-action grinding set clamping device
