4x1000ml Gear-Drive 4-Liter Planetary Ball Mill

Planetary Ball Mill 4x1000ml Gear-Drive 4-Liter (PQ-N4 Series)

The PQ-N4 Series 4-Liter Planetary Ball Mill is designed for high-efficiency research and industrial applications, including mixing, homogenizing, fine grinding, mechanical alloying, cell disruption, and small volume high-tech material production. This model is perfect for laboratories that need a powerful, reliable, and quiet milling solution for wet and dry applications, and it can even handle vacuum conditions when needed.

Key Features:

• High Efficiency & Low Noise:
  This planetary ball mill operates with high efficiency, ensuring low noise, making it ideal for laboratory settings.

• Four Grinding Stations:
  The mill includes four grinding stations arranged on the "Sun Wheel." This setup allows for simultaneous grinding of four different samples, improving efficiency and reducing overall processing time.

• Coriolis Forces for High Dynamic Energy:
  The superimposed rotational movements of the grinding balls inside the jars create Coriolis Forces, which combine frictional and impact forces. These forces release high dynamic energies, allowing for fast and effective grinding down to sub-micron sizes (as small as 0.1 micron).

• Multiple Grinding Methods:
  The ball mill offers several operation modes:

  • Single direction without timing (long or non-stop milling)
  • Single direction with timing (one-way milling for a designated time)
  • Bi-direction with timing (alternating directions for efficient grinding)
  • Single/bi-direction with paused intervals and timing (cycles of running and pausing for more precise control)

• Leak-Proof Jars:
  Available for wet grinding, ensuring that samples are safely processed without leakage.

• Wide Range of Grinding Media:
  Compatible with various materials for grinding jars and grinding balls, allowing for precise control depending on your application.

• Safety and Durability:

  • Gear-drive system eliminates issues caused by belt driving, like belt creep and wear.
  • Low center of gravity, good rigidity, and a compact structure ensure stability and reliability.
  • Safety switch automatically shuts down the unit if the cover is opened during operation.

• Adjustable Height:
  This feature provides convenience in setting the machine at the desired working height.
