Retsch - Model SM 300 -Cutting Mill

An additional flywheel mass accounts for a very high torque which enables the SM 300 to grind many materials to analytical fineness in only one working run (RES Technology, see graphic on the right). The extra peak power derived from the flywheel mass is used to overcome potential blockages, even when grinding particularly tough materials. Additionally, the RES technology enables quick sample feeding.

For applications like small scale production of food or cosmetics, the SM 300 is available in a stainless steel 316L foodGrade version which meets the guidelines of the food and pharma industry. It is equipped with a long-stock hopper for easy feeding of materials like cannabis plant parts. All parts in contact with the sample are made of 316L in this configuration. Optionally, the rotor blades and the cutting bars are made of a FDA-certified stainless steel which is less prone to wear under constant stress than 316L.

The unit can be equipped with an optional cyclone and a large 30 l receptacle (both stainless steel 316L) for collecting large sample amounts. Smooth surfaces lead to almost 100% sample recovery and easy cleaning.
