... Read More | The mixer mill MM 500 control is a unique compact, versatile bench-top unit which has been developed to work in a temerature range from -100°C to + 100°C and thus either cool samples or heat them up while grinding. It is used for dry, wet and cryogenic grinding of up to 2 x 45 ml sample material The mixer mill MM 500 control is a unique compact, versatile bench-top unit which has been developed to work in a temerature range from -100°C to + 100°C and thus either cool samples or heat them up while grinding. It is used for dry, wet and cryogenic grinding of up to 2 x 45 ml sample material within seconds. With a maximum frequency of 30 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 control is the first mixer mill in the market to provide a real alternative to grinding in a planetary ball mill with special cooling options and with more comfortable handling - powerful grinding by impact and friction with up to 30 Hz
- pulverization of two samples down to the nanometer range < 0.1 micron
- multi-cavity jars 2x 25 ml or 4 x 10 ml available
- adapter for keeping 2 ml plastic tubes or 2 ml steel tubes available
- suitable for long-term grinding processes up to 99 h
