Introduction

KT-VBM100 is a laboratory desktop high-performance vibrating ball mill and sieving dual-purpose small and lightweight instrument. The vibrating platform with a vibration frequency of 36,000 times/min provides energy. The grinding ball with a diameter of 60mm and a volume of 150ml is used for grinding. The mortar, through the violent collision of the ball and the mortar, is used for conventional grinding of hard, brittle, and materials. At the same time, liquid nitrogen can be poured into the mortar to improve the brittleness of soft, elastic, fibrous, and other difficult-to-handle samples. For crushing or grinding, KT-VBM100 can also be used as a sieving machine with 2-5 layers of analytical sieves with a diameter of 100-150mm and a precision of 20µm-63mm. The sieving weight is 3kg, and it can be used for dry sieving or wet sieving.

FAQ

What is cryomilling and how does it differ from traditional grinding methods?

Cryomilling is a specialized mechanical milling process where samples, especially those that are temperature-sensitive or contain volatile components, are milled in a cryogen slurry or at cryogenic temperatures. This method differs from traditional grinding by operating at very low temperatures, typically using liquid nitrogen, to prevent heat generation, oxidation, and other issues associated with high temperatures. This helps in maintaining the integrity of the materials being processed.

What types of materials are best suited for processing in a Cryogenic Mill?

Cryogenic Mills are particularly effective for processing materials that are heat-sensitive, brittle, or prone to oxidation, such as plastics, rubber, pharmaceuticals, and biological samples. These mills help in maintaining the quality and integrity of these materials by operating at ultra-low temperatures.

How does the Cryogenic Grinding Mill system work?

The Cryogenic Grinding Mill system uses liquid nitrogen to cool the pulverized material to very low temperatures. The chilled material then enters a mechanical pulverizer where it is subjected to high-speed rotation, impact, collision, shearing, and friction, leading to effective pulverization. The system includes a classifier that sorts the pulverized material; finer particles are collected, while coarser particles are returned for further grinding.

What is milling equipment used for?

Milling equipment is used for the precise shaping, sizing, and finishing of various materials. It is commonly employed in manufacturing processes to remove excess material, create complex shapes, and achieve tight tolerances. Milling machines are versatile tools capable of performing tasks such as cutting, drilling, boring, and contouring.

What are the different types of milling equipment?

There are several types of milling equipment, including vertical milling machines, horizontal milling machines, and gantry milling machines. Vertical milling machines have a vertically oriented spindle that moves the cutting tool up and down. Horizontal milling machines have a horizontally oriented spindle and are typically used for larger, heavy-duty applications. Gantry milling machines have a bridge-like structure that supports the spindle and allows for precise movement in multiple directions.

What materials can be processed using milling equipment?

Milling equipment can process a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, composites, and wood. Common metals processed using milling machines include steel, aluminum, brass, and titanium. Plastics such as acrylic, PVC, and nylon can also be milled. Additionally, milling equipment can shape and finish composite materials like carbon fiber and fiberglass, as well as wood and other organic materials.

How does milling equipment work?

Milling equipment operates by rotating a cutting tool, typically a multi-point cutter, against the workpiece. The cutting tool removes material from the workpiece as it moves along various axes. The movement of the cutting tool and the workpiece can be controlled manually or through computer numerical control (CNC) systems. The cutting tool may have different geometries, such as end mills, ball mills, or face mills, depending on the desired outcome. The precise control of the cutting tool's movement allows for the creation of intricate shapes, precise dimensions, and smooth surface finishes.

What are the advantages of using milling equipment?

Milling equipment offers several advantages in manufacturing processes. Firstly, it allows for the precise removal of excess material, resulting in accurate and consistent part dimensions. Secondly, milling machines can create complex shapes and features that would be challenging or impossible to achieve using other methods. Thirdly, milling equipment provides high productivity, as it can remove material quickly and efficiently. Additionally, modern CNC milling machines offer automation and programming capabilities, reducing manual labor and increasing efficiency. Lastly, milling equipment provides versatility, as it can be used for a wide range of materials and applications.

What factors should be considered when selecting milling equipment?

Several factors should be considered when selecting milling equipment. These include the required machining capabilities, such as the size and complexity of the parts to be produced, as well as the desired precision and surface finish. The type of material to be processed is also crucial, as different milling machines may be better suited for specific materials. Other factors to consider include the available workspace, the required spindle speed and power, the availability of tooling and accessories, as well as the budget and maintenance requirements. It is important to choose milling equipment that aligns with the specific machining needs and production goals to ensure optimal performance and cost-effectiveness.
