RAPID MILL WITH PLANETARY DRIVE, MOD. MAG/3000/D (WITH 4 ROTATING UNITS)

The requirement of some laboratories in the ceramic industry to be able to rapidly grind large frit quantities, led Ceramic Instruments to design an innovative system that has achieved truly interesting results.
The “MAG” series laboratory mill, uses a planetary-type rotating system where 4 grinding containers (jars) are placed on a bearing plate which rotates in the opposite direction.
The energy stored due to the centrifugal forces involved, drags the grinding bodies (alumina balls) and obtain an exceptional grinding effect.

The main advantages of this system are:

• Up to 6-8 Kg of dry product in one single grinding operation.
• Grinding residue better than that obtained from tra-ditional systems with eccentric rotation.
• Shorter grinding times (40-45 minutes for 6 Kg of ceramic frit with a residue of 1 g).
• Grinding evenness (practically no residual coarse parts).
• Vibration-free and perfect machine stability.
• Less noisy than traditional systems (approx. 72-74 dB).
• Overall dimensions are approx. 1/4 of those of tra-ditional systems with the same production capacity (equal to at least to 3 SD series mills with 4 rotating units each using 1000 cc jars. In figures, 0.99 m2 instead of 4.23 m2).
• Energy saving (it works with one 1.5 kW motor instead of at least 12 0.22 kW motors required for the traditional systems  with the same production capacity).
