Pot Mill
Pot Mill
The pot mill is meant for analytically pure and contamination free micro milling of ceramic or metallic powder in dry as well as in suspension from as large as 200 micron particle size down to extreme fineness (less than 1 micron). It is most suitable for micro milling of hard materials like carbide, borides and ceramics, etc. Principle of operation: micro milling is carried out by rolling of the balls on material as well as frequent impact of balls. The sample kept in the pot along with balls of suitable material and pot rotates on PU coated support rolls. The pot rotational speed can be set from 20 to 200 RPM. Pot rotates about its axis, while balls inside the pot spin about their own axis in the same direction, the material gets trapped between the inner wall of bowl and balls and gets rolled over by weight of balls and thus gets pulverized. Pot material (inner lining): a) tungsten carbide, b) toughened alumina, and c) stabilized zirconia. The pot capacity ranges from 500 ml to 5000 ml (5 ltr), and has long continuously running capacity up to 7 days.
