Description

OPBM-40 360° ROTATING PLANETARY BALL MILL 5.5KW OMNIDIRECTIONAL

LABORATORY & PRODUCTION GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview

The OPBM-40 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 5.5kW drive system, it has a jar rotation speed of 0–390 rpm and a Φ430 mm jar orbit diameter, supports up to 4 simultaneous grinding jars with a 40L total maximum volume (10L 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 1900×1450×1480 mm and a net weight of 1430 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.

  • 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-40 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-40 requires adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe 360° rotation of its overturning mechanism. The user must consult the official manual before first operation and ensure that all safety features, including the brake-locking overturn motor, are functional.

  • Clearance Requirement: Adequate clearance must be maintained around the mill to allow unobstructed 360° rotation of the planetary disk.
  • Electrical Requirement: The mill requires a stable electrical supply compatible with its 5.5kW motor and inverter speed control.
  • Pre-Operation Documentation: The user must read and follow the provided user manual before initial operation.
  • Brake-Locking Safety: The brake-locking overturn motor must be engaged to safely stop the rotating disk at any angle.
  • Loading Capacity: The maximum loading of material and grinding balls must not exceed two-thirds of the jar volume.

This procedure outlines the safe initialization and operation of the OPBM-40 omnidirectional planetary ball mill. Follow these steps to configure grinding parameters and engage the safety systems.

Required Equipment: Grinding jars (ordered separately), Grinding balls (ordered separately), User manual

  1. Clearance Check
    Verify that adequate clearance exists around the mill for unobstructed 360° rotation.
  2. Manual Review
    Read the user manual thoroughly before proceeding with any operation.
  3. Jar Loading
    Load grinding jars with material and grinding balls up to two-thirds of jar volume.
  4. Parameter Configuration
    Set rotation speed, timing, and forward/reverse alternation via the touchscreen interface.
  5. Start Grinding
    Initiate the grinding cycle by pressing start on the control panel.
  6. Stop Safely
    Engage the brake-locking overturn motor to stop the rotating disk at any desired angle.
  7. Unload Jars
    After complete stop, carefully remove grinding jars and collect processed material.

How does the 360° overturning planetary disk on the OPBM-40 improve grinding uniformity compared to conventional planetary ball mills?

The 360° overturning mechanism provides full grinding coverage inside the jars, eliminating material sedimentation and wall adhesion to produce finer, more uniform powder. This is achieved through a vertical planetary structure with a Φ430 mm jar orbit diameter and gear drive transmission at jar rotation speeds of 0–390 rpm. The design ensures consistent energy transfer and reduces common issues of non-uniform milling seen in fixed-angle planetary mills.

What jar and grinding media materials are compatible with the OPBM-40 to avoid cross-contamination during ultra-fine milling?

The OPBM-40 accepts jars and grinding balls in materials including WC-Co, Al₂O₃, agate, YSZ, stainless steel, polyurethane, ceramic, and nylon, all ordered separately. Users must select materials that are chemically compatible with their target powder to avoid cross-contamination. Each jar holds up to 10 L (40 L total for 4 jars), and the maximum loading is two-thirds of the jar volume.

What spatial and infrastructure requirements are needed to safely operate the OPBM-40 with its 360° overturning mechanism?

The overturning mechanism requires adequate clearance space around the equipment for safe 360° rotation. The unit measures 1900×1450×1480 mm and weighs 1430 kg, necessitating a sturdy, level floor and sufficient access for maintenance. The 5.5 kW motor uses gear drive with inverter stepless speed control, and the brake-locking overturn motor allows safe stopping at any angle.

The OPBM-40 omnidirectional planetary ball mill delivers a 5.5 kW gear drive with 360° overturning to eliminate sedimentation and wall adhesion, achieving discharge sizes down to 0.1 μm from ≤3 mm feed (≤10 mm for soil). Its 40 L total capacity (10 L per jar) and 0–390 rpm jar speed suit mid-scale R&D and small-batch production, but the 1430 kg unit requires dedicated floor space and separate procurement of jars and media.

Positive

  • 360° overturning eliminates sedimentation: The planetary disk rotates fully during operation, preventing material settling and wall adhesion for more uniform grinding and finer discharge down to 0.1 μm.
  • High-torque gear drive with inverter control: A 5.5 kW gear drive with stepless speed regulation (0–390 rpm) provides stable, low-noise operation and precise speed adjustment via touchscreen, including forward/reverse alternation and power-off memory.

Trade-offs

  • Requires separate jar and media purchase: Grinding jars and balls are not included; users must order compatible materials (e.g., Al₂O₃, YSZ, agate) separately, adding procurement steps and potential cross-contamination risk if mismatched.
  • Large footprint and clearance needed for rotation: At 1900×1450×1480 mm and 1430 kg, the unit demands substantial floor space and adequate clearance around the equipment to safely accommodate the 360° overturning mechanism.
