The
1095 Knifetec Sample Mill
is designed for the preparation of high fat, high moisture and fibrous
samples prior to analysis. Oilseeds, prepared foods, meat products, fruit,
vegetables, grains, seeds and feed samples are examples of suitable sample
types.
The
high-speed rotor blade and timer control consistently ensure very fast and
reproducible sample preparation. The normal time to prepare samples is two
to ten seconds.
A
safety switch located in the lid prevents accidental operation of the mill
with the lid removed.
The
Knifetec is equipped with a grinding chamber cooling feature that enables
it to be connected to cold tap water or other laboratory chilling devices.
Samples containing high levels of fat have a tendency to stick to the wall
of the chamber as the fat softens during grinding, preventing adequate
homogenization. Fibrous samples may generate heat due to friction.
Utilizing the cooling option overcomes both these problems, ensuring
satisfactory sample preparation.
The
fully removable lid, the stainless steel chamber, and the removable rotor
blade of the Knifetec simplify sample removal and cleaning between
samples. This saves a considerable amount of time compared to the other
techniques. An integral tilting system also simplifies emptying and
cleaning.
The
design of the 1095 Knifetec ensures rapid, reproducible and safe
preparation.
