Vibrational high energy mill SPEX SamplePrep 8000 M

The 8000M Mixer/Mill is a high-energy ball mill that grinds between 0.3 – 10 grams of samples, depending of density. The complex movement (8 shape figure) allows obtaining high energy.

Characteristics:

– 875 cycles per minute

– dry or wet milling 

–  sample size per vial: up to 10 ml for grinding tough samples and up to 50 ml for blending powders or mixing emulsions

–  allows up to 5 cycles of milling (timer range up to 100 minutes)

– protection to mechanical failure (excessive vibration shuts down the mill)

– vials and balls of tungsten carbide, hardened steel, agate, zirconia, polypropylene, etc.

– forced-air cooling and safety interlock system  

Applications: Can be used either for fine grinding or mechanical alloying. Milling of: sand, cement, slag, ceramics, metals, minerals, catalyst supports, plant tissues.
