NEWFor grinding, agitating and dispersing samples

Cryogenic Mill < IQ MILL-2070 >Japanese patent No. 7064786

Easy operation
Quick, effective and quiet grinding
Energy saving sample cooling kit included

Lightweight12 kg< Small portable IQ MILL-2070 >Perfect for sample pretreatment- Specifically designed for grinding, agitating, and dispersing samples In sample pretreatment, grinding samples into fine
powders is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.
The newly developed IQ MILL-2070 makes this a simple
process. Especially in microanalysis, grinding samples isa required pretreatment for sample uniformity,homogeneity, and reproducibility. Various methods havebeen devised, but they have problems such as a large

amount (e.g., 5 L) of liquid nitrogen consumption, agrinding time of more than ten minutes, and a noise levelof 90 dB during that time. The "IQ MILL-2070" is abenchtop grinding, agitating, and dispersing device thatuses a special high elastic belt* to achieve a rapid
reciprocating torsional motion to solve these problems.
(*Japanese patent No. 7064786)

IQ MILL-2070 features
1 Simple operation⚫ Grinding samples by simple operation
Required settings are only : Grinding speed, Grinding time, Number of cycles, and Pausetime. All of these settings can be easily done through the rotary knob and touch panel.

2 Fast and efficient grinding⚫ Grinding up to three samples at a time in the same program
Equipped with a holder that holds up to three sample containers for efficient grinding.
⚫ Powerful impact and shear grinding capabilities bring significant reduction of grinding time
Rapid reciprocating torsional motion enables sample grinding in a short period of time.
⚫ Quiet operation
Noise level during grinding is only around 55 dB and will not interfere with conversation.
