Description

ATOMFAIR CPM-40 CRYOGENIC PLANETARY BALL MILL 5-15°C LOW-TEMP GRINDING

RESEARCH & PRODUCTION GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

ATOMFAIR CPM-40 Cryogenic Planetary Ball Mill – key parameters: 5.5 kW gear-drive motor, 0–390 r/min (1:1.5) jar rotation, 430 mm revolution diameter, 250 mm jar holder ID, total volume 40 L (4 jars × 10 L each), output down to 0.1 μm, integrated 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit maintains 5–15°C.
The CPM-40 combines a planetary ball mill with an air-cooled refrigeration unit based on compressor-type cooling principles. During high-speed grinding, most materials generate temperature rise through friction and exothermic reactions, which can alter physicochemical properties and compromise grinding results. This cryogenic planetary ball mill is specifically designed for low-temperature ultrafine grinding research and small-batch production where strict temperature control is critical. The air-cooled refrigeration gear drive system rapidly removes grinding-generated heat through cold air circulation, stably maintaining the grinding chamber temperature between 5–15°C depending on ambient temperature differential. The gear-driven transmission supports simultaneous operation of 4 grinding jars with 4 standard 10 L jars (total volume 40 L). This listing is priced for the CPM-40 main unit only—grinding jars and grinding balls are ordered separately. The CPM series spans from 0.2 L miniature models to 200 L production units with integrated cryogenic temperature control.

Can the CPM-40 cryogenic planetary ball mill maintain 5–15°C when processing highly exothermic materials like lithium cobalt oxide at the full 40 L capacity?

Yes, the integrated 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit rapidly removes frictional and exothermic reaction heat via cold air circulation, designed to handle the heat from four 10 L jars simultaneously. However, the 5–15°C temperature control range is dependent on ambient temperature; a stable laboratory environment is required for consistent results. The compressor-based cooling system ensures reliable low-temperature grinding for temperature-sensitive materials.

What material constraints must be considered when selecting grinding jars and balls for the CPM-40 to avoid contamination in battery material processing?

The CPM-40 is compatible with jars made of WC-Co, Al₂O₃, agate, YSZ, stainless steel, polyurethane, ceramic, and nylon, with corresponding grinding ball materials available. To avoid cross-contamination in battery materials like lithium cobalt oxide, match the jar and ball material chemically and mechanically to the target material; for example, Al₂O₃ or YSZ for oxide ceramics. Jars and balls are ordered separately, and selecting incompatible materials can compromise purity or cause wear.

What electrical and spatial infrastructure is required to support the CPM-40 cryogenic planetary ball mill in a laboratory setting?

The CPM-40 requires a 3-phase electrical supply for its 5.5 kW gear-drive motor and 3P air-cooled refrigeration compressor. The unit measures 1400×880×1070 mm and weighs 656 kg; adequate ventilation space around the equipment is necessary for optimal cooling performance. A stable ambient temperature environment is also recommended to maintain the 5–15°C grinding chamber temperature consistently.

The CPM-40 cryogenic planetary ball mill integrates a 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit to maintain 5–15°C grinding chamber temperature, enabling low-temperature ultrafine grinding of temperature-sensitive materials down to 0.1 μm. With a 5.5 kW gear drive and 40 L total jar capacity (4×10 L), it bridges laboratory research and small-batch production, though jars and media are ordered separately.

Positive

  • Integrated cryogenic temperature control: Compressor-based air-cooled refrigeration system stably maintains grinding chamber between 5–15°C, critical for preserving physicochemical properties of temperature-sensitive materials during high-energy milling.
  • High-torque gear drive with stepless speed control: Gear-driven transmission paired with a brand inverter enables precise stepless speed regulation from 0–390 rpm (jar rotation), delivering robust torque for heavy grinding loads while allowing optimized parameter tuning.

Trade-offs

  • Jars and grinding media sold separately: The main unit does not include grinding jars or balls; buyers must select compatible materials (e.g., Al₂O₃, YSZ, agate) from separate listings, increasing total procurement complexity and cost.
  • Temperature range dependent on ambient conditions: The 5–15°C control range relies on stable ambient temperature and adequate ventilation around the refrigeration unit; inconsistent lab environments may compromise cooling performance.
