Retsch is promoting its Emax model as an entirely new type of ball mill for high energy milling.
The company claims that a unique combination of high friction and impact results in extremely fine particles within the shortest amount of time using a speed of 2000 min-1 and innovative jar design.
Retsch has used a water cooling system to ensure that the high energy input is effectively used for the grinding process without overheating the sample.
Due to the special grinding jar geometry, the sample is thoroughly mixed which results in a narrow particle size distribution.
The Emax is capable of continuous grinding operation without interruptions for cooling down, reducing grinding time.
The high energy input in combination with the cooling system provides perfect conditions for effective mechanical alloying or grinding down to the nanometer range.
Features overview:
- Safety features such as integrated safety closure of the grinding jar, temperature control with automatic start/stop system, and integrated imbalance controls
- Narrow particle size distribution thanks to special jar design which improves mixing of the sample
- Easy operation via touch screen, 10 SOPs storable
- Patented drive concept
- Range of jar materials allow for contamination free grinding
