Picoplex laboraatory fine impact mill
With a range of grinding tools and versatile applications, the Picoplex laboratory fine impact mill – available in two versions – provides the ideal basis for development and optimisation tasks. This allows processes to be adapted quickly and results to be specifically influenced. It can be easily integrated into the Picoline platform.

- The material to be ground is dosed into the centre of a rotor equipped with grinding tools and crushed by impact on the rotor and stator tools.
- After passing through the grinding zone, the ground material enters the mill housing and exits the mill by gravity. The rotation creates an air flow from which the ground material is separated in a filter.

- Different grinding tools can be used, e.g. rotor/stator discs with axial pins or a plate beater rotor with a profiled grinding path or with a sieve.
- The fineness of the grinder is adjusted by the rotor speed and the feed rate.
