Function Principle
In the Ultra Centrifugal Mill ZM 200 size reduction takes
place by impact and shearing effects between the
rotor and the fixed ring sieve. The feed material passes through
the hopper (with splash-back protection) onto the rotor.
Centrifugal acceleration throws it outward with great energy and it
is precrushed on impact with the wedge-shaped rotor teeth moving at
a high speed. It is then finely ground between the rotor and the
ring sieve.
This 2-step grinding ensures particularly gentle but fast
processing. The feed material only remains in the grinding
chamber for a very short time, which means that the characteristic
features of the sample to be determined are not altered. The ground
sample is collected in the collecting cassette surrounding the
grinding chamber or in the downstream cyclone or paper filter
bag.
The Ultra Centrifugal Mill ZM 200 is a high speed rotor mill
with unmatched performance. It is used for the rapid size
reduction of soft to medium-hard and fibrous
materials.
Because of the efficient size reduction technique the ZM 200
ensures the gentle preparation of
analytical samples in a very short time. The comprehensive
range of accessories including a large variety of ring sieves and
rotors as well as collection systems makes the Ultra Centrifugal
Mill a versatile instrument that can be easily
adapted to varying applications. The optional Vibratory Feeder is
load-controlled via an interface and ensures a uniform grind at
maximum output rate. With thousands of installations, the
ZM 200 has become a standard for food and feeds,
for the chemical industry as well as for agricultural testing.
