The Micro-Mill II sample grinder from Bel-Art Products is described as ideal for high-speed milling of small samples from 20 to 50ml
The 0.2hp (150Watt) motor drives a stainless steel blade that quickly pulverizes materials such as bone, ceramics, frozen tissue, minerals and pharmaceuticals.
Softer samples such as frozen tissue or wood can be processed by adding dry ice to the grinding chamber during processing.
The grinding chamber assembly is removable to allow complete sample recovery and cleaning.
Additional accessory chambers are available to further reduce cross contamination.
For users pulverising very hard material, a stellite faced hardened blade is available.
The two-position rocker switch allows pulse or continuous operation to match with sample requirements.
Safety features include electronic switching to prevent operation until all parts are completely assembled to the base and the indicator light illuminates.
A resetable circuit breaker protects the mill if the sample jams the blade.
Non-skid feet prevent movement of the mill during use and won't mar benchtops.
