PB6023 Micro Planetary Ball Mill

Micro-Planetary Ball Mill Description

The Micro Planetary Ball Mill is the smallest table-top planetary ball mill currently available on the market, capable of holding up to four 100 ml grinding jars. This product is designed for grinding or mixing small quantities of brittle samples in laboratory settings, distinguished by its performance, practicality, safety, and user-friendliness. The rounded planetary disc structure made of stainless steel maximises user safety during operation and minimises the risk of sample contamination. The 4-inch LCD touchscreen interface provides an intuitive experience, making the device easy, light, and quick to operate.

This mill can produce nanopowders with sizes ranging from 2 to 20 nanometers, making it ideal for applications that require the synthesis of materials at the nanoscale. The size of the nanopowder can be adjusted by changing the rotational speed of the balls.

Micro-Planetary Ball Mill Applications

• Powder Processing: The primary application of a Micro Planetary Ball Mill is the fine milling and homogenisation of powders. It is frequently used in the production of nanoparticles, where extremely fine particles are required.
• Material Synthesis: It is employed in the synthesis of new materials, including alloys, ceramics, and composites, through mechanical alloying and mechanical milling processes.
• Sample Preparation: In laboratories, samples are prepared for analysis, such as for X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron microscopy, or spectroscopy.
• Chemical Reactions: It can facilitate chemical reactions that are enhanced by the mechanical energy from the milling process, as seen in mechanochemistry.
• Biomaterials: It is used for producing biomaterials where the fine grinding of components is required for further processing or to create homogeneous mixtures.
• Research and Development: It is commonly utilised in research and development for the creation of new products or for investigating material properties at the micro level.

FAQs

Q1: What are milling machines used for?

Milling machines are employed to precisely shape, design, and process a variety of materials. They are often used in manufacturing to remove excess material, create complex shapes, and maintain tight tolerances. Milling machines are versatile tools capable of performing tasks such as cutting, drilling, boring, and contouring.

Q2: What are the different types of milling machines?

There are several types of milling machines, including vertical milling machines, horizontal milling machines, and gantry milling machines. Vertical milling machines feature a vertically aligned spindle that moves the cutting tool up and down. Horizontal milling machines have a horizontally aligned spindle and are typically used for larger, heavier applications. Gantry milling machines have a bridge structure that supports the spindle and enables precise movement in multiple directions.

Q3: What materials can be processed with milling machines?

Milling machines can process a variety of materials including metals, plastics, composites, and wood. Common metals processed by milling machines include steel, aluminium, brass, and titanium. Plastics such as acrylic, polyvinyl chloride, and nylon can also be milled. Furthermore, milling machines can shape and process composites such as carbon fibre and glass fibre, alongside wood and other organic materials.
