Description

ATOMFAIR SBM-10L LABORATORY STIRRED BALL MILL ULTRASFINE GRINDING

RESEARCH GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

The ATOMFAIR SBM-10L is a Laboratory Stirred Ball Mill classified as a Small TYPE production unit, driven by a 1.5 kW motor with frequency speed control offering a continuously variable speed range of 60–560 rpm. The mill features a total volume of 10 L with a maximum loading capacity of 3.5 L, accepting feed material up to ≤10 mm and delivering ultrafine grinding output ≤1 μm. The stirred mill consists of a stationary grinding chamber filled with small-diameter media, a stirring device, and auxiliary systems including circulation, jacketed cooling for precise temperature control, timing, and speed regulation. The grinding efficiency is significantly higher than conventional ball mills due to the high power density design. The stirring shaft features automatic lifting and the grinding chamber supports free tilting for convenient loading, unloading, and cleaning. Grinding jars and grinding balls are ordered separately. The SBM series spans from 1 L laboratory models to 600 L production units, covering research, pilot, and full-scale production applications across ceramics, chemicals, electronics, magnetic materials, coatings, pharmaceuticals, and new materials processing.

Key Features & Advantages

  • High Energy Utilization with Ultrafine ≤1 μm Output: The stirred mill design achieves significantly higher power density than conventional ball mills, delivering superior energy efficiency and consistent ultrafine grinding to particle sizes ≤1 μm from maximum feed of 10 mm.
  • Jacketed Grinding Chamber for Precise Temperature Control: The double-walled cooling jacket enables effective heat dissipation during extended grinding operations, preventing thermal degradation of temperature-sensitive materials and ensuring consistent product quality.
  • Automatic Lifting Stirring Shaft with Free Tilting Chamber: The stirring shaft features automatic lifting capability and the grinding chamber supports free tilting, facilitating convenient loading, unloading, and cleaning between experiments.
  • Multiple Jar and Ball Material Options for Contamination Control: Nine grinding jar materials and seven ball materials enable contamination-free processing of diverse materials from ceramics to pharmaceuticals.

APPLICATION SCOPE: Laboratory ultrafine grinding and powder processing for material science research. Suitable for zirconium silicate, zirconia, alumina, ceramics, chemicals, electronic materials, magnetic materials, papermaking, coatings, non-metallic minerals, new materials, paints, graphite, calcium carbonate, and pharmaceutical fine powder production. Compatible with both continuous and batch processing modes with frequency speed control for process parameter optimization.
PACKAGING: The standard configuration includes 1 pc grinding host machine. Grinding jars (4 pcs of 2.5 L, available materials: WC-Co, Al₂O₃, Agate, YSZ, SS, PU, Ceramic, Nylon) and grinding balls (WC-Co, Al₂O₃, Agate, YSZ, SS, IC-PU, HCCI) are ordered separately. The SBM series is available from 1 L laboratory models through 600 L production units. Installation guidance and operational training support are provided upon request.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Grinding jars and balls must be ordered separately. Select jar and ball materials compatible with your target material to avoid cross-contamination. The jacketed cooling system should be connected to an appropriate cooling water supply for temperature-controlled grinding. Product particle size can be adjusted by controlling material residence time within the grinding chamber. For detailed installation, operation, and maintenance instructions, consult the user manual prior to first use.

This laboratory stirred mill contains rotating components and a motorized stirrer that pose mechanical pinch and electrical hazards. Safe operation requires proper grounding, coolant circulation, and secure installation of grinding media within the specified volume.

  • Coolant Supply: Connect a coolant source to the jacket inlet before operation to prevent overheating of the grinding chamber.
  • Media Loading: Load grinding media not exceeding 3.5 L working capacity to avoid overloading the motor and stirring mechanism.
  • Material Compatibility: Verify that the wetted parts (cylinder lining and stirring rod) are chemically compatible with the sample to prevent corrosion or contamination.
  • Speed Control: Set the rotation speed within the specified range (60–560 rpm) using the frequency converter; do not exceed maximum rated speed.
  • Locking Mechanism: Ensure the grinding cylinder is securely locked in position before starting the stirrer to prevent spillage or imbalance.

This procedure outlines the steps to safely start and run the JM-10L stirred mill for fine grinding. Follow all steps to ensure proper coolant flow, media loading, and speed control to avoid mechanical damage or personal injury.

Required Equipment: Grinding media (e.g., zirconia beads), Coolant circulation system

  1. Inspect Equipment
    Inspect the mill for any loose connections or damaged wiring before connecting to power.
  2. Connect Coolant
    Connect coolant hoses to the jacket inlet and outlet, and confirm continuous water flow.
  3. Load Media
    Load the grinding media into the cylinder up to approximately 30-40% of the working volume.
  4. Add Sample
    Add the sample slurry into the cylinder, filling no more than the rated working capacity of 3.5 liters.
  5. Secure Lid
    Secure the cylinder lid and verify that the sealing gasket is properly seated.
  6. Set Speed
    Set the rotation speed using the frequency converter within the range of 60 to 560 rpm.
  7. Start and Monitor
    Start the mill and monitor operation for abnormal noise, vibration, or temperature rise.

How does grinding media size selection affect the achievable particle size distribution and throughput in the JM-10L stirred mill?

Larger grinding media produce coarser particles while smaller media yield finer powder, with the JM-10L capable of discharging particles ≤1 μm when using appropriately sized media. Throughput is inversely related to fineness because residence time must be increased to achieve submicron sizes, as the mill's fineness is controlled by adjusting material residence time in the cylinder. A proper ratio of different media sizes combined with speed adjustment optimizes grinding performance.

Which wear-resistant materials are available for the JM-10L grinding cylinder and stirrer to prevent cross-contamination when processing high-purity materials?

The JM-10L offers optional grinding cylinders and stirring components in stainless steel, corundum ceramic, polyurethane, zirconia, and other materials such as nylon, agate, and PTFE depending on the model series. This allows researchers to select a chemically inert or abrasion-resistant lining that matches their material system, avoiding metallic or organic contamination during fine grinding of ceramics, battery materials, or pharmaceuticals.

Does the JM-10L stirred mill require an external chiller or cooling system for temperature-sensitive grinding processes?

Yes, the JM-10L grinding cylinder is designed with a jacket that allows precise control of the grinding temperature, and cooling units are listed as auxiliary devices available for integration. This enables researchers to maintain thermal stability during prolonged milling of heat-sensitive materials such as polymers or energetic compounds, preventing degradation or phase changes.

The JM-10L laboratory stirred mill achieves submicron particle size reduction through high-speed agitation of grinding media, with a jacketed cylinder for temperature control and interchangeable wear-resistant liners for contamination-sensitive research and small-batch production.

Positive

  • High energy efficiency and fine grinding: Achieves discharge particle sizes down to ≤1 μm with high energy utilization and power density, reducing operational costs for fine grinding and enabling precise particle size control.
  • Jacketed cylinder for thermal control: The grinding cylinder is equipped with a jacket that allows precise temperature regulation, which is essential for grinding heat-sensitive materials and maintaining process stability.

Trade-offs

  • Potential contamination from media wear: The collision and friction forces between grinding media and cylinder components can generate wear particles; careful selection of optional cylinder materials is required to minimize product contamination.
  • Requires external cooling circulation: The jacketed cooling system depends on an external coolant circulation unit, adding infrastructure requirements for temperature-controlled operation and increasing setup complexity.
