| Description | Planetary Ball Mills are used wherever the highest degree of fineness is required. Apart from the classical mixing and size reduction processes, the mills also meet all the technical requirements for colloidal grinding and have the energy input necessary for mechanical alloying processes. The Planetary Ball Mills are used wherever the highest degree of fineness is required. Apart from the classical mixing and size reduction processes, the mills also meet all the technical requirements for colloidal grinding and have the energy input necessary for mechanical alloying processes. The extremely high centrifugal forces of the Planetary Ball Mills result in very high pulverization energy and therefore short grinding times.
The PM 100 CM is a convenient benchtop model with 1 grinding station. It operates in centrifugal mode mode, which leads to a more gentle size reduction process with less abrasion.
Features - Powerful and quick grinding down to nano range
- Perfect stability on lab bench thanks to FFCS technology
- Innovative counter weight and imbalance sensor for unsupervised operation
- Gentle grinding in centrifugal mode
- Comfortable parameter setting via display and ergonomic 1-button operation
- Automatic grinding chamber ventilation
- 10 SOPs can be stored
- Programmable starting time
- Power failure backup ensures storage of remaining grinding time
- Reproducible results due to energy and speed control
- Suitable for long-term trials and continuous use
- 2 different grinding modes (dry and wet)
- Optional pressure and temperature measuring system PM GrindControl
- Measurement of energy input
- Wide range of materials for contamination free grinding
- Safety Slider for safe operation

The SR 300 isThe Rotor Beater Mill SR 300 is suitable for coarse and fine size reduction, either in batches or continuously. It can process dry, soft, medium-hard, organic and inorganic substances.
Its high speed in comparison to the SR 200 allows a significantly higher throughput and fineness.
The SR 300 is intended for universal use: from sample preparation in laboratories up to preparing sample batches in pilot plants or production facilities. The grinding chamber, the feed hopper and the material inlet are completely made from high quality stainless steel.
Features
- Suitable for batchwise operation of larger quantities
- Central locking device
- Wide range of accessories including various collection and feeding systems, rotors and sieves
- High final fineness
- Exchangeable grinding and sieve inserts
- Grinding chamber, feed hopper and material inlet and outlet of stainless steel
- Optional grinding inserts 180° for grinding of hard-brittle materials by additional impact
- Optional distance rotor to reduce frictional heat
- Removable hopper for easy cleaning
- Motor brake
- Defined final fineness due to bottom sieves with aperture sizes from 0.08 - 10 mm
... Read More | The Vibratory Disc Mill RS 200 is suitable for the extremely quick, loss-free and reproducible grinding of medium-hard, brittle and fibrous materials to analytical fineness. The instrument runs steadily and smoothly, even with heavy grinding sets, at maximum speed thanks to the new Stabilized-Plane-The Vibratory Disc Mill RS 200 is suitable for the extremely quick, loss-free and reproducible grinding of medium-hard, brittle and fibrous materials to analytical fineness. 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
