Good results
start with good sample preparation. Errors caused by analytical
instruments are very small compared to the errors associated with sample
preparation. The laboratory sample mill is an important, but often
overlooked link in the chain of analysis; so important that FOSS TECATOR
regards it as an integral part of the analytical system.
The
equipment is convenient and safe to use and covers a broad range of
grinding applications, ensuring repeatability and reproducibility.
The Cylotec is
designed for rapid, uniform grinding of a wide variety of samples such as
feeds, grains, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and similar products. The sample
is rolled against an inner grinding ring by a rotating impeller and then
passed through a screen of variable mesh size.
The Knifetec is
designed for the preparations of high fat, high moisture and fibrous
samples prior to analysis. The high-speed rotor blade and timer control
ensure very fast and reproducible sample preparation. The Knifetec can be
connected to a cold-water tap to cool the grinding chamber. This will
prevent high-fat samples from sticking to the wall of the grinding
chamber.
The Cemotec is
specially designed to grind grain and seed samples without losing any of
the moisture content. The Cemotec works by grinding the sample between two
discs, one stationary and one turning. The distance between the discs can
be adjusted to control the fineness of the grist.
The Homogenizer
is designed for macerating and homogenizing high-moisture, high-fat and
fibrous samples. Reproducibility is achieved through the use of a built-in
timer. The Homogenizer comes with two different rotors with smooth and
scalloped blades. |
