Planetary mills for laboratory applications
The planetary mills premium line (photo) are extremely strong, all-purpose mills that are said to offer premium performance, usability and safety. Due to rotational speeds of up to 1,100 rpm, ultra-fine milling results are achieved by powerful wet and dry comminution of hard, medium-hard, soft, brittle and moist samples by the high-energy impact of grinding balls in rotating grinding bowls. The advantages include extremely short grinding times and reliably reproducible results down into the nanometer range. These mills are also suitable for highly efficient mixing and homogenizing, or for mechanical activation and alloying in materials research. — Fritsch GmbH, Idar-Oberstein, Germany
