OPBM-20 360° ROTATING PLANETARY BALL MILL 4KW OMNIDIRECTIONAL

LABORATORY & PRODUCTION GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

The OPBM-20 is a mid-capacity laboratory and production-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 4kW drive system, it has a jar rotation speed of 0–430 rpm and a Φ385 mm jar orbit diameter, supports up to 4 simultaneous grinding jars with a 20L total maximum volume (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 1700×1210×1300 mm and a net weight of 1180 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.

Product Features

  • Professional industrial exterior design with lean manufacturing and exquisite workmanship.
  • Machined parts adopt CNC technology; transmission gears are precision-made from special materials, ensuring stable, safe and low-noise high-speed operation.
  • The overturning motor features brake locking, allowing stopping at any angle safely and reliably.
  • Equipped with a microcomputer touch screen for convenient operation and a simple, intuitive interface.
  • Supports forward and reverse alternating control with timer and power-off memory functions.
  • Optional integrated microcomputer touch-screen PLC control panel.

PACKAGING: This listing is priced for the OPBM-20 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 OPBM-20 requires adequate clearance around the equipment for safe 360° rotation of the overturning mechanism. Grinding jar and ball materials must be selected for compatibility with the target material to prevent cross-contamination.

  • Clearance Requirement: The overturning mechanism requires adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe 360° rotation.
  • Material Compatibility: Select jar and ball materials compatible with your target material to avoid cross-contamination.
  • Maximum Loading Capacity: Do not exceed two-thirds of jar volume for material and grinding ball loading to prevent operational hazards.
  • Feed Size Limit: Feed material must be ≤3 mm (≤10 mm for soil) to prevent jamming and damage to the mill.
  • Pre-Operation Manual: Consult the user manual for detailed installation, operation, and maintenance instructions prior to first use.

How does the 360° overturning planetary disk improve grinding uniformity compared to conventional planetary ball mills?

The OPBM-20's 360° overturning planetary disk provides full 360° grinding coverage inside the jars, which eliminates common issues of material sedimentation and wall adhesion. This results in finer and more uniform powder compared to conventional planetary mills that only rotate in a fixed plane. The gear drive with inverter stepless speed regulation (0–430 rpm jar rotation) and a 4 kW motor further ensure consistent energy input across all four jars.

Which grinding jar materials are available for the OPBM-20 to avoid cross-contamination in high-purity milling?

The OPBM-20 supports grinding jars made from WC-Co, Al₂O₃, Agate, YSZ, SS, PU, Ceramic, and Nylon, each ordered separately. For zero-metal analysis, natural agate jars are recommended; for high-wear resistance and nano-grinding, WC-Co or YSZ jars are suitable. The jar volume per jar is 5 L (total 20 L), and the feed size is ≤3 mm (≤10 mm for soil), with discharge size down to 0.1 μm depending on material and process.

What safety and installation considerations are required for the OPBM-20's 360° overturning mechanism?

The overturning motor features brake locking, allowing the planetary disk to stop safely at any angle during operation. Adequate clearance space around the equipment is required for the full 360° rotation. The unit weighs 1180 kg with dimensions of 1700×1210×1300 mm, so floor loading capacity and access pathways must be evaluated prior to installation.

The OPBM-20 omnidirectional planetary ball mill utilizes a 360° overturning planetary disk to eliminate material sedimentation and wall adhesion, achieving finer powder uniformity. Its 4kW gear drive with inverter speed control and brake-locking overturn motor provides safe, precise operation, but jars and media are sold separately and adequate clearance is required for the overturning mechanism.

Positive

  • 360° Overturning Grinding Coverage: The planetary disk rotates 360° during operation, providing full coverage inside jars to prevent material sedimentation and wall adhesion, resulting in finer and more uniform powder.
  • Brake-Locking Overturn Motor: The overturning motor features brake locking, allowing the mill to stop safely at any angle, enhancing operator safety during loading and unloading.

Trade-offs

  • Jars and Media Not Included: The listed price covers the main unit only; grinding jars and grinding balls must be ordered separately, which adds to the total cost and requires careful material compatibility selection.
  • Clearance Space for Overturning: The overturning mechanism requires adequate clearance space around the equipment to safely perform the 360° rotation, which may limit placement in tight lab spaces.
