PULVERISETTE 5/4 planetary mill
The PULVERISETTE 5 classic planetary mill, featuring 4 working stations, ensures rapid and reliable grinding of hard, medium-hard, soft, brittle, viscous, and moist materials down to a colloidal fineness—with no loss of sample—thanks to the exceptionally high-energy impact of the grinding balls. Depending on the desired final fineness, grinding can be performed dry, in a suspension, or under an inert gas atmosphere.
In addition to grinding, the planetary mill can be used for mixing and homogenizing emulsions and pastes, as well as for mechanical activation and alloying in materials science. Technical Data
