Powerful, Quick, Simple, and Benchtop Perfect for pretreatment of hard-to-grind polymers - Specifically designed for grinding, agitating, and dispersing various samples In sample pretreatment, grinding samples into fine powders is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. The newly developed IQ MILL-2070 is a device that makes grinding a simple process. Especially in microanalysis, pulverizing samples is a required pretreatment for sample uniformity, homogeneity, and reproducibility. Various methods have been devised, but they have problems such as a large amount of liquid nitrogen consumption, grinding time of more than ten minutes and a noise level of 90 dB during that time. The "IQ MILL-2070" is a benchtop grinding, agitating, and dispersing device that uses a special high elastic belt to achieve a high-speed three-dimensional figure-eight motion to solve these problems*. *Japanese Patent: 7064786 Features of IQ MILL-2070 1. Easy to use and simple to operate ●Grinding samples by simple operation Required settings are only: grinding speed, grinding time, number of cycles, and waiting time. The settings can be easily done with the rotary knob and touch panel. 2. Fast and efficient grinding ●Milling up to three samples at a time in the same program Equipped with a holder that holds up to three sample containers for efficient grinding. ●Powerful impact and shear crushing capabilities bring significant reduction in grinding time High-speed 3-D figure-8 grinding method enables sample grinding in a short period of time. 3. Liquid nitrogen cooling kit for cryo-milling ● A compact design in which only the sample container can be precooled with liquid nitrogen before grinding. The minimum liquid nitrogen consumption is only about 300 mL for energy saving. The kit contains a cooling container and cooling holder. ●Grinding at room temperature for most materials. Specifications Grinding temperatures Room temperature or below using a refrigerant (liquid nitrogen, etc.) Rotation speed (rpm) Pause time between cycles (sec) Cycle (number of repetitions) Setting parameters Safety function Combination of double micro switch and manual lock Main unit dimensions and weight Width 270 x Depth 340 x Height 300 (mm), 12 kg Sample container, Insulation container, Insert tube, Cooling Standard accessories container, Tongs, Cooling holder, Sieve set, Grinding balls (Tungsten carbide and Zirconia)
