Perten Laboratory Mill LM 3610

Perten - a PerkinElmer Company
The Laboratory Mill 3610 is is a disc type mill designed to prepare samples for oven and NIR moisture tests of grains, pellets and other raw materials. The Laboratory Mill 3610 has capacity to grind large samples thus minimizing sampling error of heterogeneous materials. The sample is rapidly crushed/ sheared between sharp steel discs and collected in a quick release plastic sample cup. The disc design and rapid grinding minimize heat development. Loss of moisture is thus virtually eliminated. Typical sample size is 10 - 250 g of sample for general applications and 10 - 15 g for grain moisture determinations.

Hardened Steel Disc
Particle size is dependent upon disc type and inter-disc distance. The distance between discs is adjustable and there are three different types of discs available.
Type 1 – medium: Used for determination of moisture content
Type 5 – fine: Used when a finer particle size is required
Type 4 – coarse: Used for oats and other high moisture grains
The Laboratory Mill 3610 is delivered with type 1 disc set.

Applications
The Laboratory Mill 3610 is suitable for sample preparation for oven and NIR moisture tests of grain, pellets and other low fat (less than 20% fat) materials. Products include: soy beans, soy meal, corn products, finished pasta, wheat, nuts and many other grains and products.
