The Planetary Ball Mill PM 200 is a powerful benchtop model with 2 grinding stations for grinding jars with a nominal volume of 12 ml to 125 ml.
The extremely high centrifugal forces of Planetary Ball Mills result in very high pulverization energy and therefore short grinding times.
The PM 200 can be found in virtually all industries where the quality control process places the highest demands on purity, speed, fineness and reproducibility.
The mill is ideally suited for tasks in research like mechanochemistry (mechano-synthesis, mechanical alloying and mechanocatalysis), or ultrafine colloidal grinding on a nanometer scale, as well as for routine tasks such as mixing and homogenizing soft, hard, brittle or fibrous materials.
Benefit from particularly ergonomic handling while achieving the same finenesses down to the nanometer range.
Operation of the RETSCH planetary ball mills is particularly safe. They feature a robust Safety Slider which ensures that the mill can only be started after the grinding jar has been securely fixed with a clamping device. The self-acting lock ensures that the jar is seated correctly and securely. This proven solid mechanical system is less failure-prone than electronic solutions - the user has full access to the sample at any time. When the electronic system fails, it is not possible to unlock the jars, for example.
Wet grinding is used to obtain particle sizes below 5 µm, as small particles tend to get charged on their surfaces and agglomerate, which makes further grinding in dry mode difficult. By adding a liquid or dispersant the particles can be kept separated.
To produce very fine particles of 100 nm or less (nano-scale grinding) by wet grinding, friction rather than impact is required. This is achieved by using a large number of small grinding balls which have a large surface and many friction points. The ideal filling level of the jar should consist of 60 % small grinding balls.
For more details on jar filling, wet grinding and sample recovery watch the video.

The graphic shows the result of grinding barium titanate at 500 rpm in the PM 200. After 5 h of pulverization in heptane and oleic acid mixture with 0.5 mm grinding balls, the D90 value of the original sample was reduced from 15 µm to 95 nm.

The performance and the result of sample preparation are also determined by the choice of the grinding jar and its ball charge. The EasyFit range of jars has been specially designed for extreme working conditions such as long-term trials, even at maximum speed of 800 rpm, wet grinding, high mechanical loads and maximum speeds as well as for mechanical alloying. This line of jars is suitable for all RETSCH planetary ball mills.
The new EasyFit grinding jar series features a structure on the bottom of the 50-500 ml jars called Advanced Anti-Twist (AAT). This ensures that the jars are tightly fixed without the risk of twisting, even at high speed, and that wear and tear is drastically reduced. Secure clamping of the jars is made much easier: to find the correct clamping position, a maximum twist of 60° is required.
The geometry of the EasyFit jars in the 50 ml and 250 ml sizes has been enlarged in diameter and reduced in height compared to the previous "comfort" models. This offers two advantages: better grinding results and interchangeable lids, as there are only three diameter dimensions for the entire grinding jar range.
Diameter categories
To produce optimum grinding results, the jar size should be adapted to the sample amount to be processed. The grinding balls are ideally sized 3 times bigger than the largest sample piece. Following this rule of thumb, the number of grinding balls for each ball size and jar volume is indicated in the table below. To pulverize, for example, 50 ml of a sample consisting of 3 mm particles, a 125 ml jar and grinding balls sized at least 10 mm or larger are recommended. According to the table, 30 grinding balls are required.

| 500 ml | 75 – 220 ml | <10 mm | 2000 | 440 – 700 | 200 – 230 | 70 | 25 | 8 | |

분쇄 용기는 행성 볼 밀의 sun wheel에 편심 배치됩니다. 용기의 운동 방향은 sun wheel 대하여 1:-2 비율로 반대 운동합니다.
분쇄 용기 내 분쇄용 볼은 소위 코리올리의 힘 (Coriolis forces)이라 불리는 중첩 회전 운동을 받습니다. 볼과 용기간의 상이한 속도는 높은 동적 에너지를 방출하는 마찰력과 충격 사이에서 상호 작용을 발생시킵니다. 이러한 힘 사이의 상호 작용은 행성 볼 밀의 분쇄를 매우 효과적이며 높은 수준으로 만듭니다.
