Description

PBM-60 LOW TEMP PLANETARY BALL MILL 5–15°C 7.5KW

LABORATORY GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Introduction

Low temperature planetary ball mill is a combined equipment of planetary ball mill and refrigeration device. During high-speed grinding, most materials will heat up due to friction or exothermic reactions, which may alter the physical and chemical properties of materials and produce negative grinding effects. Low temperature planetary ball mill is mainly used for material grinding processes requiring strict temperature control. The listed price is for the main machine only; grinding jars and grinding balls must be ordered separately.

Operating Principle of Planetary Ball Mill

Four grinding jars are installed on the main disc of the planetary ball mill. When the motor drives the main disc to rotate, the grinding jars revolve around the main disc axis and rotate simultaneously driven by the planetary mechanism, performing planetary motion. The grinding balls inside the jars rub and collide with each other under high-speed planetary motion, enabling efficient sample grinding and mixing.

Product Application

Low temperature planetary ball mill is widely used in geology, mineral resources, metallurgy, electronics, building materials, ceramics, chemical industry, light industry, medicine, environmental protection and other fields. It is suitable for the production of electronic ceramics, structural ceramics, magnetic materials, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganate, catalysts, fluorescent powders, long afterglow luminescent powders, rare earth polishing powders, electronic glass powders, fuel cells, zinc oxide varistors, piezoelectric ceramics, nanomaterials, wafer ceramic capacitors, MLCC, thermistors (PTC, NTC), zinc oxide varistors, dielectric ceramics, alumina ceramics, zirconia ceramics, fluorescent powders, zinc oxide powder, cobalt oxide powder, Ni-Zn ferrites, Mn-Zn ferrites and other products.

Product Features

Low temperature planetary ball mill is a combined equipment of planetary ball mill and air cooling device. The air cooling unit adopts the air-conditioning compression refrigeration principle, and the cold air circulation quickly removes heat generated during grinding. According to ambient temperature differences, the temperature of the grinding chamber can be controlled at 5–15℃. It is mainly used for ultra-fine grinding of materials under low-temperature processes. The air cooling device features simple structure, convenient operation, easy maintenance and low energy consumption.

This document outlines the critical constraints for safe operation of the low temperature planetary ball mill. Compliance with these constraints ensures material integrity and prevents equipment malfunction.

  • Temperature Control: The grinding chamber temperature must be maintained between 5°C and 15°C during operation using the integrated refrigeration unit.
  • Separate Components: Grinding jars and grinding balls are not included with the main machine and must be ordered separately according to material requirements.
  • Material Suitability: The mill is intended for materials that require strict temperature control during grinding to prevent thermal degradation or unwanted reactions.
  • Power Supply: The main motor requires a 7.5kW power supply; ensure the electrical installation matches the machine specifications.

This procedure describes the safe initialization and operation of the low temperature planetary ball mill. Proper cooling system verification and temperature monitoring are essential to prevent material degradation and equipment damage.

Required Equipment: Low Temp Planetary Ball Mill PBM-60, Grinding jars, Grinding balls

  1. Verify Cooling System
    Verify that the refrigeration unit is connected to power and the cooling system is operational before starting the mill.
  2. Load Sample and Balls
    Load the sample material and grinding balls into the grinding jars and ensure the jars are properly sealed.
  3. Install Jars on Disc
    Place the jars onto the main disc and tighten the clamping mechanism to secure them in place.
  4. Set Parameters
    Set the desired rotational speed and grinding duration on the control panel according to your material requirements.
  5. Start Grinding
    Start the mill and monitor the grinding chamber temperature to ensure it remains within the 5°C to 15°C operating range.
  6. Stop and Wait
    Allow the mill to come to a complete stop after the programmed cycle before opening the grinding chamber.
  7. Retrieve Sample
    Remove the jars from the disc and carefully discharge the ground material for further processing.

Can the PBM-60 low temperature planetary ball mill maintain a constant temperature of 5°C regardless of ambient conditions?

No, the product description indicates that the grinding chamber temperature can be controlled at 5–15°C depending on ambient temperature differences. The exact achievable temperature within that range is influenced by the ambient temperature; a constant 5°C may not be maintainable if ambient temperature is high relative to the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning compression refrigeration unit.

Are there any restrictions on the size or type of grinding jars that can be used with the PBM-60?

Grinding jars and balls must be ordered separately and are not included with the main machine. The technical parameter table for the PBM series lists grinding jar holder IDs for each model, but the holder ID for the PBM-60 is not provided in the available data. Users must ensure that jars fit the holder and are compatible with the low-temperature environment, typically using materials like stainless steel, zirconia, or agate that can withstand thermal cycling.

What electrical and cooling infrastructure is required to operate the PBM-60 low temperature planetary ball mill?

The PBM-60 has a motor power of 7.5KW, requiring a power supply capable of delivering that load; specific voltage and phase requirements should be confirmed with the manufacturer. The air cooling unit uses compression refrigeration and requires proper ventilation for heat dissipation; no water cooling is needed. The unit's overall dimensions are not specified, but it is a combined equipment of planetary ball mill and refrigeration device likely requiring a stable, well-ventilated lab bench or floor space.

The PBM-60 Low Temp Planetary Ball Mill integrates a 7.5kW air-cooling refrigeration system to maintain grinding chamber temperature between 5–15°C, enabling ultra-fine grinding of heat-sensitive materials without thermal degradation.

Positive

  • Integrated air-cooling for precise temperature control: The built-in refrigeration unit uses air-conditioning compression to maintain grinding chamber at 5–15°C, preventing heat-induced alteration of physical and chemical properties during high-speed grinding.
  • Broad material compatibility for temperature-sensitive samples: Suitable for ultra-fine grinding of materials in geology, ceramics, electronics, and battery chemistry where exothermic reactions or friction heat could degrade product quality.

Trade-offs

  • Auxiliary consumables required separately: Grinding jars and grinding balls must be ordered separately, adding initial setup cost and lead time before the mill can be operated.
  • Ambient temperature dependency for cooling performance: The air cooling device's ability to achieve 5–15°C depends on ambient temperature differences; extreme ambient heat or cold may reduce cooling efficiency.
