Fritsch has announced that all grinding parts in its cutting mills can be removed for cleaning without tools.
The company said this enables its cutting mills to save time in the comminution of fibrous and tough materials, plastics and heterogeneous mixture of materials and for sample preparation for RoHS and WEEE analysis.
It added that the cutting mills are available in different configurations.
Examples of practical applications include the comminution of toys to verify lead, PET plastic bottles/pressings for analytical assessment of the recycled material for the production of high value products, nuts to verify the contamination with mycotoxins, and natural rubber for analytical assessment of crude materials before they can be used for further processing.
Further examples include the comminution of leather for chemical analysis and analytical monitoring, and wood for the analysis of matured timber in regards to heavy metals, arsen and PCP/PCB.
Fritsch said its cutting mills are simple to use and clean, have optimum airflow for particularly fast grinding and secure protection against clogging, long service life, minimal dead space, progressive cutting geometry between the rotor and the fixed knives, and grinding parts with different cutting geometries and materials.
