Mortar Grinders can range from hand-powered to mechanical, and ensure a proper mix and grinding of sample material. Electronically controlled mortar grinders remove the additional work of hand-powered mortar grinders while ensuring highly reproducible sample preparation. Considerations that differentiate mortar grinders are cooling and heating capability, product maintenance difficulty, pestle material, pestle speed, pestle/scraper pressure. Additional parameters to consider when purchasing are feed material hardness, material feed size, final fineness, batch size, grinding chamber volume and power consumption of the unit.

... Read More | The Planetary Ball Mill PM 300 is a powerful and ergonomic benchtop model with two grinding stations for grinding jar volumes up to 500 ml. This setup allows for processing up to 2 x 220 ml sample material per batch. Thanks to the high maximum speed of 800 rpm, extremely high centrifugal forces The Planetary Ball Mill PM 300 is a powerful and ergonomic benchtop model with two grinding stations for grinding jar volumes up to 500 ml. This setup allows for processing up to 2 x 220 ml sample material per batch. Thanks to the high maximum speed of 800 rpm, extremely high centrifugal forces result in very high pulverization energy and consequently in short processing times. The PM 300 is ideally suited for virtually all industries where the quality control process places the highest demands on purity, speed, fineness and reproducibility. Thanks to its enormous energy input of up to 64.4 times the acceleration of gravity, this mill is the perfect choice for tasks in research like mechanochemistry (mechanosynthesis, mechanical alloying and mechano-catalysis), or for ultrafine colloidal grinding on a nanometer scale.- powerful grinding by impact and friction with up to 800 rpm
