HAMMER MILL 1800

It is a Bastak brand, model 1800. It is a laboratory-type hammer mill. It is used to impact and grind whole grains the size of wheat, barley, and rye, as well as coarse-grained grains and oily seeds like corn, into powder after breaking them into several pieces. Approximately, dust samples the size of flour particles are obtained. It is particularly used in preparing samples for protein, cellulose, fat, gluten, falling number, and other analyses. The standard sieve hole diameter used in the device is 0.8 mm. Optionally, the hole diameter of the sieve can be changed, allowing adjustment of the particle size of the sample to be ground. There is no moisture loss during grinding. The husk and inner part of the seeds (e.g., flour and bran in wheat) are collected in the same collection container for ground products. The grinding capacity is 50–100 g/1 minute depending on the product density. It has ease of use due to its ergonomic design. The external dimensions of the device are 420x270x270 mm, and the net weight is 9 kg. The device operates with 220 V, 50 Hz current.
