When you need consistent, fine grinding of hard or brittle materials in your lab, the IKA Analytical Mill delivers exceptional performance where it matters most. This isn't just another grinding tool—it's a precision instrument designed for researchers who need reliable sample preparation without the constant maintenance that comes with inferior equipment.
The heart of this analytical mill is its AISI 420 stainless steel beater spinning at an impressive 28,000 RPM, powered by a robust 300 W motor. You can confidently process samples up to 6 Mohs in hardness, from geological specimens to pharmaceutical compounds. The grinding chamber crafted from high-grade AISI 316L stainless steel ensures both durability and chemical resistance, while the rugged polycarbonate exterior provides an extra layer of protection against laboratory spills and corrosive substances.
What sets this mill apart is its thoughtful engineering details. The integral blade design means fewer parts to lose or replace, and the compact 3.5" W x 9.5" H x 3.5" D footprint makes it easy to store even in space-constrained labs. When you're finished grinding, clean-up is remarkably quick thanks to the smooth polycarbonate construction—no more scrubbing stubborn residues from hard-to-reach corners.
Lab safety is never an afterthought with this mill. The built-in indicator light and safety switch provide protection against overheating and improper closure, giving you peace of mind during extended grinding sessions. While it's designed for dry sample processing only, the included 100 mL Makrolon grinding chamber (with optional 250 mL chamber available) offers flexibility for different sample volumes.
Whether you're preparing geological samples for analysis, grinding pharmaceutical ingredients, or processing food science specimens, this analytical mill delivers the consistency and reliability your laboratory demands. The combination of high-speed performance, durable construction, and user-friendly design makes it a valuable addition to any research facility.
