ATOMFAIR CPM-16A CRYOGENIC PLANETARY BALL MILL 5-15°C LOW-TEMP GRINDING

RESEARCH & PRODUCTION GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

ATOMFAIR CPM-16A Cryogenic Planetary Ball Mill – key parameters: 3 kW gear-drive motor, 0–510 r/min (1:1.5) jar rotation, 320 mm revolution diameter, 182 mm jar holder ID, total volume 16 L (4 jars × 4 L each), output down to 0.1 μm, integrated 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit maintains 5–15°C.
The CPM-16A 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 4 L jars (total volume 16 L). This listing is priced for the CPM-16A 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.

Key Features & Advantages

  • Integrated Air-Cooled Refrigeration with 5–15°C Temperature Stability: The compressor-based cooling system rapidly removes frictional and exothermic reaction heat via cold air circulation, stably maintaining the grinding chamber within the 5–15°C range for temperature-sensitive materials processing.
  • Gear-Driven Transmission with Brand Inverter Stepless Speed Control: The gear drive system delivers robust torque transmission for heavy grinding loads, while the brand-name inverter enables precise stepless speed regulation across the full operational range for optimized grinding parameters.
  • Ultrafine Output Down to 0.1 μm with High Loading Capacity: The planetary motion achieves final particle sizes as fine as 0.1 μm depending on material and process parameters, with maximum loading of two-thirds jar volume for efficient batch processing.
  • Semi-Circular Design with 16 L Total Volume (4 × 4 L): The CPM-16A features a semi-circular design supporting 4 standard 4 L grinding jars for a total volume of 16 L, offering flexible small-batch production with consistent cryogenic temperature control across all jars.

APPLICATION SCOPE: Widely used in geology, mining, metallurgy, electronics, building materials, ceramics, chemical engineering, light industry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental protection for temperature-sensitive materials. Specifically suitable for electronic ceramics, structural ceramics, magnetic materials, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, catalysts, phosphors, long-afterglow luminescent powders, rare-earth polishing powders, electronic glass powders, fuel cells, zinc oxide varistors, piezoelectric ceramics, nanomaterials, multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), thermistors (PTC, NTC), dielectric ceramics, alumina ceramics, zirconia ceramics, zinc oxide powders, cobalt oxide powders, nickel-zinc ferrites, and manganese-zinc ferrites where low-temperature grinding is critical for preserving material properties.
PACKAGING: This listing is priced for the CPM-16A main unit only. The standard configuration includes 1 pc grinding host machine with integrated air-cooled refrigeration unit (3P compressor), brand-name inverter speed control, and gear drive transmission. Grinding jars: 4 pcs of 4 L (total volume 16 L) are ordered separately. Grinding balls are also ordered separately. The CPM series is available from 0.2 L miniature models through 200 L production units. Installation guidance and operational training support are provided upon request.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The listed price is for the main unit; grinding jars and balls must be ordered separately. Select jar and ball materials compatible with your target material to avoid cross-contamination. The refrigeration unit requires adequate ventilation space around the equipment for optimal cooling performance. The temperature control range of 5–15°C is dependent on ambient temperature conditions—maintain a stable laboratory environment for consistent results. For detailed installation, operation, and maintenance instructions, consult the user manual prior to first use.

The CPM-16A cryogenic planetary ball mill requires a stable ambient temperature and adequate ventilation for its integrated refrigeration unit to maintain a grinding chamber temperature of 5–15°C. Jar and ball materials must be selected to avoid cross-contamination, and jar loading must not exceed two-thirds of the jar volume.

  • Ambient Temperature Dependence: Maintain a stable laboratory environment as the refrigeration unit's ability to sustain 5–15°C depends on ambient temperature conditions.
  • Ventilation Requirement: Provide adequate ventilation space around the equipment to ensure optimal cooling performance of the air-cooled refrigeration unit.
  • Material Compatibility: Select jar and ball materials that are chemically compatible with the target material to prevent cross-contamination and preserve sample purity.
  • Jar Loading Capacity: Do not load material beyond two-thirds of the jar volume to maintain efficient grinding and prevent excessive load on the drive system.

What is the effective temperature control range of the CPM-16A cryogenic planetary ball mill and how does ambient temperature affect it?

The CPM-16A stably maintains the grinding chamber between 5–15°C, but this range is dependent on the ambient temperature differential. The integrated 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit uses compressor-based cooling to remove frictional and exothermic heat via cold air circulation. A stable laboratory environment is required for consistent temperature control.

Which grinding jar materials are compatible with the CPM-16A for contamination-sensitive cryogenic grinding?

The CPM-16A accepts 4 L grinding jars in materials including WC-Co, Al₂O₃, Agate, YSZ, SS, PU, Ceramic, and Nylon. Jars are ordered separately and must be selected to match the target material to avoid cross-contamination. The total volume is 16 L (4 jars × 4 L each).

What ventilation and space requirements are needed for the integrated refrigeration unit on the CPM-16A?

The 3P air-cooled refrigeration unit requires adequate ventilation space around the equipment for optimal cooling performance. The unit is integrated into the main grinding host; ensure proper airflow to maintain the 5–15°C temperature range. The equipment dimensions are 950×600×710 mm and it weighs 205 kg.

Atomfair CPM-16A Cryogenic Planetary Ball Mill delivers 16 L total grinding capacity with integrated air-cooled refrigeration maintaining 5–15°C, gear drive with inverter speed control, and ultrafine output down to 0.1 μm, but requires separate purchase of jars and media and stable ambient conditions for optimal cooling.

Positive

  • Integrated 5–15°C Cryogenic Control: Integrated air-cooled compressor refrigeration maintains grinding chamber at 5–15°C, enabling ultrafine grinding of temperature-sensitive materials without thermal degradation.
  • Gear Drive with Inverter Speed Control: Gear-driven transmission with brand inverter provides stepless speed regulation (0–510 rpm) for optimized grinding parameters under heavy loads.

Trade-offs

  • Jars and Media Ordered Separately: Grinding jars and balls must be purchased separately, requiring additional procurement and compatibility assessment for the target material.
  • Cooling Depends on Ambient Conditions: The 5–15°C control range is contingent on ambient laboratory temperature; stable environmental conditions are necessary for consistent performance.
