Description

OPBM-(2-6) 360° ROTATING PLANETARY BALL MILL 0.75KW OMNIDIRECTIONAL

LABORATORY GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

The OPBM-(2-6) is a compact laboratory-grade omnidirectional planetary ball mill for ultra-fine grinding and homogenization. With a 360° overturning planetary disk on its vertical planetary structure, it delivers full 360° grinding coverage inside jars to produce finer, more uniform powder and eliminates common issues of material sedimentation and wall adhesion. Powered by a 0.75kW drive system, it has a jar rotation speed of 0–670 rpm and a Φ234 mm jar orbit diameter, supports up to 4 simultaneous grinding jars with a total volume range of 2–6L (0.5–1.5L per single jar), accepts feed sizes ≤3mm (≤10mm for soil) and achieves a final discharge size down to 0.1μm. It adopts gear drive with inverter stepless speed regulation, is equipped with a touchscreen control system featuring forward/reverse alternation, timing and power-off memory, and comes with a brake-locking overturn motor for safe stopping at any angle. With overall dimensions of 1330×810×860 mm and a net weight of 305 kg, it is widely applicable to R&D and small-batch production across multiple industries; the listed price covers the main machine only, and grinding jars and media are available for separate order.

PACKAGING: This listing is priced for the OPBM-(2-6) main unit only. The standard configuration includes 1 pc grinding host machine with 360° overturning mechanism, gear drive transmission, and brand-name inverter speed control. Grinding jars and grinding balls are ordered separately. The OPBM series is available from 0.4 L through 100 L models. 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 overturning mechanism requires adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe 360° rotation. For detailed installation, operation, and maintenance instructions, consult the user manual prior to first use. If you have specific requirements for other OPBM models or custom configurations, please contact us at inquiry@atomfair.com.

The unit requires adequate clearance space around all sides for safe 360° rotation of the planetary disk. Grinding jars and media must be selected for chemical compatibility with the target material to prevent cross-contamination and equipment damage.

  • Clearance Requirement: Ensure sufficient clearance around the equipment to permit unobstructed 360° rotation of the planetary disk.
  • Material Compatibility: Select grinding jar and ball materials that are chemically inert toward the sample to avoid contamination and wear.
  • Load Limit: Do not exceed two-thirds of jar volume when loading material and grinding balls to prevent overloading and mechanical stress.
  • Brake Locking: Use the brake-locking overturn motor to safely stop the planetary disk at any angle before accessing jars.
  • Electrical Safety: Verify that the power supply matches the motor rating and that the unit is properly grounded before operation.

This procedure describes safe initialization and operation of the omnidirectional planetary ball mill for ultra-fine grinding. Follow these steps to load jars, set parameters, and safely stop the mill.

Required Equipment: Grinding jar set (0.5L or 1.5L per jar), Grinding ball set (compatible material)

  1. Inspect Unit
    Inspect the unit for any damage and ensure all safety guards are in place before operation.
  2. Connect Power
    Verify that the power supply matches the motor rating and connect the unit to a grounded outlet.
  3. Select Jars and Media
    Select grinding jars and media that are chemically compatible with your sample material to avoid contamination.
  4. Load Jars
    Load each jar with sample material and grinding balls up to two-thirds of its volume.
  5. Secure Jars
    Secure the loaded jars onto the planetary disk using the provided clamping mechanism.
  6. Set Parameters
    Set the desired rotation speed and grinding time on the touchscreen control panel.
  7. Start and Monitor
    Start the mill and monitor operation; use the brake-locking overturn motor to safely stop at any angle if needed.

How does the 360° overturning mechanism in the OPBM-(2-6) affect grinding uniformity compared to conventional planetary ball mills?

The 360° overturning planetary disk eliminates material sedimentation and wall adhesion by continuously reorienting the grinding jars, producing finer and more uniform powder than fixed-angle planetary mills. The OPBM-(2-6) achieves a final discharge size down to 0.1 μm with a jar rotation speed of 0–670 rpm and a Φ234 mm orbit diameter, supporting up to four jars simultaneously.

Can the OPBM-(2-6) be used with 0.5 L and 1.5 L jars of different materials in the same run, and what are the compatibility constraints?

The OPBM-(2-6) is compatible with four jars of either 0.5 L (total 2 L) or 1.5 L (total 6 L) per run, but all jars must be of the same volume and material to maintain balanced load and consistent grinding dynamics. Available jar materials include WC-Co, Al₂O₃, agate, YSZ, stainless steel, PU, ceramic, and nylon, each selected to avoid cross-contamination with the target sample.

What are the clearance and infrastructure requirements for safe installation of the OPBM-(2-6) with its 360° overturning mechanism?

The OPBM-(2-6) requires adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe 360° rotation of the overturning mechanism. With overall dimensions of 1330×810×860 mm and a net weight of 305 kg, it must be placed on a level, vibration-dampened surface with access to a 0.75 kW power supply and inverter control. The brake-locking overturn motor allows safe stopping at any angle, but the user manual must be consulted for detailed installation and operation instructions.

The OPBM-(2-6) omnidirectional planetary ball mill integrates a 360° overturning mechanism to mitigate sedimentation and wall adhesion, achieving submicron discharge down to 0.1 μm with a 0.75 kW gear drive and stepless speed control up to 670 rpm, but requires separate procurement of jars and media and adequate clearance for safe rotation.

Positive

  • 360° overturning eliminates sedimentation: The planetary disk rotates 360° during operation, preventing material sedimentation and wall adhesion inside jars, enabling more uniform grinding and finer powder compared to conventional fixed-angle planetary mills.
  • Submicron discharge down to 0.1 μm: With a feed size ≤3 mm (≤10 mm for soil) and jar rotation up to 670 rpm, the mill achieves a final discharge size as low as 0.1 μm, suitable for ultra-fine grinding in R&D and small-batch production.

Trade-offs

  • Jars and media ordered separately: The listed price covers only the main unit; grinding jars and balls must be purchased separately, requiring additional procurement lead time and compatibility assessment with target materials to avoid cross-contamination.
  • Requires clearance for 360° rotation: The overturning mechanism demands adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe full-rotation operation, imposing spatial constraints in crowded laboratory environments.
