Disc Mill DM 200 & Jaw Crusher BB 250 Two-stage sample preparation in one step
The combi unit, featuring the Jaw Crusher BB 250 and the Disc Mill DM 200 connected via a cyclone separator, enables automated, continuous sample preparation. Material is directly transported from the jaw crusher to the disk mill, allowing large feed sizes to be processed in one step to a defined final fineness of small particles. This two-step grinding process is necessary for hard or brittle materials that require initial coarse reduction followed by fine grinding. The combi unit streamlines workflows, eliminates manual sample transfer, and significantly reduces processing time. It minimizes dust emissions and ensures efficient, reproducible results, making it an ideal solution for applications in agriculture, cement production, mining, precious metal analysis, materials research, and environmental analysis.

- Gap setting disc mill: 0.2 mm
- Feed size: 60 mm
- Final fineness: 200 μm
- Sample amount: 1 kg

Functional Principle
In the DM 200 the feed material enters the dustproof chamber from the filling hopper and is fed centrally between two vertical grinding discs. A moving grinding disc rotates against a fixed one and draws in the feed material. The necessary comminution effects are generated by pressure and frictional forces. The progressively arranged grinding disc meshing first subjects the sample to preliminary crushing; centrifugal force then moves it to the outer regions of the grinding discs where fine comminution takes place. The processed sample exits through the grinding gap and is collected in a receiver. The gap width between the grinding discs is continuously adjustable and can be adjusted during operation in the range between 0.1 and 5 mm; an additional observation window is provided for checking the gap setting.
