Fritsch Pulverisette 6 Classic Line

The Fritsch PULVERISETTE 6 classic line is a high-performance planetary ball mill that provides for dry and wet grinding of solid samples. The built-in sample adapter allows for simultaneous grinding of up to four samples with a maximum 75mL bottle capacity per sample. The PULVERISETTE 6 also provides for adjustable imbalance compensation, rotational speeds up to 650 rpm, reversibility in directional rotation, and automated timers, which provides consistent and reproducible grinding performance. Stainless steel and silicon nitride grinding balls are currently available for use with the ball mill. Additional grinding ball types and bowl types can be purchased directly from Fritsch depending on the application/user need.

Usage of the PULVERISETTE 6 ball mill is charged on an hourly basis. All training and reservations for the PULVERISETTE 6 ball mill are handled via MDERFH’s iLab Core.
