LABORATORY & PRODUCTION GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Introduction

HPBM-40 is a heavy-duty horizontal laboratory and production-grade planetary ball mill equipped with a 5.5kW motor, designed for pilot trials and small-batch grinding production. It adopts a dual-end double disc support frame structure, greatly boosting overall rigidity, load capacity and operational stability compared with light horizontal planetary mills. Key technical specifications of HPBM-40 include a drive ratio of 0.086, adjustable jar rotation speed ranging 0–430 rpm at a 1:1.5 speed ratio, 250 mm inner diameter jar holders, Φ430 mm jar revolution orbit diameter, overall dimensions of 1780×860×1070 mm and a net weight of 790 kg. The machine features thickened steel plate cabinet, CNC machined heat-treated parts and precision special alloy transmission gears for stable low-noise high-speed running, integrated lifting and screen discharging mechanism with brake locking safety function, as well as a microcomputer touch control system supporting forward-reverse cycle operation, timing and power-off memory. Widely applied in geology, metallurgy, lithium battery materials, electronic ceramics, nanomaterials and other fields, this unit only covers the main machine in listed price; grinding jars and grinding balls need to be purchased separately.

Selection Guide

  • Capacity Requirements: Select cylinder volume based on output: 50L–500L for small-scale production, and above 1000L (e.g., 5000L-class equipment) for large industrial lines.
  • Material Characteristics: High-hardness materials require highly wear-resistant linings (e.g., manganese steel or zirconia) and large-sized grinding media. Wet grinding needs corrosion-resistant cylinders and sealed structures.
  • Energy Consumption & Maintenance: Prioritize models with rolling bearings and variable frequency speed control to reduce energy consumption and improve control accuracy. Regularly inspect lining wear and lubrication systems for long-term stable operation.
  • Special Requirements: For ultra-fine powders (≤1μm), a forced stirring system or counter-rotating device is recommended to enhance grinding efficiency. For industries with high cleanliness requirements (pharmaceuticals, food, etc.), full stainless steel structure and pollution-free linings are required.

The HPBM-40 ball mill weighs 790 kg and requires a stable, level surface with electrical supply capable of delivering 5.5 kW. The integrated brake locking mechanism must be engaged before accessing the jar area to prevent unintended rotation.

  • Weight and Foundation: The machine's net weight of 790 kg necessitates installation on a reinforced, level floor to dampen vibration and prevent tipping.
  • Electrical Supply: The machine is equipped with a 5.5 kW motor, requiring a compatible electrical service with sufficient capacity.
  • Safety Lock: The brake locking mechanism must be verified functional before each use to secure the jar holder assembly during loading and unloading.
  • Jar and Media Selection: Grinding jars and balls are not included and must be ordered separately based on material compatibility and contamination requirements.

The HPBM-40 is a heavy-duty horizontal planetary ball mill for pilot and small-batch grinding. This guide outlines the key steps for safe initialization and operation.

Required Equipment: Grinding jars (ordered separately), Grinding balls (ordered separately), Integrated lifting mechanism, Microcomputer touch control system

  1. Select jars and media
    Select grinding jars and grinding balls appropriate for the material, hardness, and desired fineness using the selection guide.
  2. Load jars into machine
    Load the filled grinding jars into the jar holders using the integrated lifting mechanism, ensuring they are securely seated.
  3. Set parameters
    Set the jar rotation speed and cycle timing via the microcomputer touch control system, using forward-reverse cycle as needed.
  4. Start milling operation
    Start the milling operation and allow the machine to run through the programmed cycle.
  5. Stop and engage brake
    Stop the machine after the set cycle, then engage the brake locking mechanism before opening the jar area.
  6. Discharge ground material
    Discharge the ground material using the screen discharging mechanism, ensuring the brake is locked during handling.

How does the HPBM-40's drive ratio of 0.086 and 1:1.5 speed ratio affect its milling performance compared to smaller HPBM models?

The HPBM-40 uses a drive ratio of 0.086 and a jar rotation speed of 0–430 rpm at a 1:1.5 speed ratio, providing high torque for pilot-scale grinding. This configuration, combined with a 5.5 kW motor and 250 mm jar holder inner diameter, enables processing of larger batch volumes (4×10 L jars) while maintaining stable low-noise operation via precision alloy gears and a dual-end double disc support frame.

Which grinding jar materials are recommended for the HPBM-40 when milling lithium battery cathode materials to avoid contamination?

For lithium battery materials, the HPBM-40 is compatible with Al₂O₃ (95% alumina), YSZ (yttria-stabilized zirconia), and Agate (natural SiO₂) jars, all available in 10 L capacity. These materials provide high wear resistance and minimal contamination, with Al₂O₃ and YSZ offering excellent hardness for oxide cathode materials while Agate is suitable for zero-metal analysis.

What are the installation space and safety considerations for the HPBM-40 given its 790 kg weight and integrated brake locking system?

The HPBM-40 requires a floor area of 1780×860 mm and a height clearance of 1070 mm, with a net weight of 790 kg necessitating a reinforced floor or vibration-dampening foundation. The integrated lifting and screen discharging mechanism includes a brake locking safety function to prevent accidental movement during jar changes, and the microcomputer control system supports power-off memory to resume operations after interruption.

The HPBM-40 heavy-duty horizontal planetary ball mill with 5.5kW motor offers robust structural rigidity and programmable control for pilot-scale grinding, but requires separate procurement of grinding jars and media and demands significant floor space due to its 790 kg weight and large dimensions.

Positive

  • Heavy-Duty Rigid Frame: Dual-end double disc support frame greatly boosts overall rigidity, load capacity and operational stability compared with light horizontal planetary mills.
  • Advanced Control System: Microcomputer touch control system supports forward-reverse cycle operation, timing and power-off memory for flexible and automated grinding protocols.

Trade-offs

  • Separate Consumables Required: Grinding jars and grinding balls must be ordered separately, increasing initial procurement complexity and cost.
  • Large Footprint and Weight: Net weight of 790 kg and overall dimensions of 1780×860×1070 mm require substantial floor space and robust floor support for installation.
