Product Overview


This photocatalytic high-energy vibratory ball mill represents a state-of-the-art solution for advanced nano-grinding, particle size reduction, and in-situ photo-mechanochemical synthesis. By integrating high-intensity optical irradiation directly into a high-energy mechanical grinding chamber, the system simultaneously applies high-frequency mechanical impact and concentrated shear forces alongside controlled photon energy. This dual-energy mechanism allows research teams and process engineers to drive complex chemical transformations, solid-state reactions, and surface modifications at lower ambient temperatures than conventional thermal processing methods require.
Designed to handle an exceptionally wide array of sample types—including hard, medium-to-low hardness, brittle, soft, fibrous, elastic, and viscous materials—the equipment excels across semiconductor development, solar cell material synthesis, battery electrode refinement, photopolymerization, and catalytic powder engineering. The unit operates effectively under dry, wet, and vacuum milling environments, accommodating maximum feed sizes up to 10 mm and consistently refining materials down to the 100-nanometer scale. Dual grinding stations constructed with high-transmittance quartz glass enable real-time photon coupling while preventing sample contamination.
Built for demanding industrial laboratories and rigorous pilot-scale testing, the equipment features an IP65 protection rating, a robust stainless steel workbench, and an advanced variable frequency drive system. Automated safety interlocks, over-temperature protection, and integrated thermal dissipation mechanisms ensure continuous, repeatable performance during long-duration runs. The combination of precision planar arc reciprocating motion and customizable light source options positions this instrument as an indispensable platform for modern material science and green chemistry applications.
Key Features
- Integrated Photocatalytic Light Irradiation Assembly: Features a dedicated, customizable light module (100–1100 nm wavelength range, 100W power output) that injects visible or invisible UV/IR light directly into the reaction zone during grinding, enabling true in-situ photo-mechanochemical reactions and photocatalytic testing.
- Precision Reciprocating Planar Arc Motion: Operates with a two-dimensional arc motion profile powered by a variable frequency motor operating from 180 to 1800 r/min, producing powerful impact and friction energy for rapid sub-micron and nanometer-scale particle breakdown.
- High-Transmission Quartz Glass Reaction Vessels: Equipped with dual 50 ml grinding jars fabricated from ultra-pure quartz glass, offering superior optical transparency across UV-Vis-NIR spectra while maintaining thermal shock resistance and high mechanical durability.
- Multi-Mode Atmosphere and Solvent Compatibility: Seamlessly supports dry grinding, wet slurry processing, and inert gas vacuum grinding, allowing researchers to optimize kinetic conditions and protect oxygen- or moisture-sensitive compounds.
- Comprehensive Programmable Digital Controller: Includes advanced microprocessor controls supporting continuous, intermittent, and timed operation modes, complete with non-volatile power-off memory, multi-recipe data storage, and automated dynamic speed compensation.
- Robust Thermal Management and Shielding: Built with an integrated stainless steel cooling workbench and high-efficiency heat dissipation channels, matched with a full external light shielding hood and internal specular reflectors to optimize photon distribution and safeguard operators from intense radiation.
- Ergonomic Quick-Clamping and Modular Design: Features rapid-action jar clamping mechanisms to minimize setup times and ensure secure seating under high g-forces, combined with easily detachable light assemblies for simplified maintenance and rapid optical modifications.
- Industrial Grade Safety and Protection Features: Engineered with electronic overload protection, dangerous operation interlocks, and IP65 enclosure sealing to deliver stable operational safety in demanding laboratory environments.
