Soil Sample Planetary Ball Mill
A planetary mill configuration for preparing soil and related samples before analysis. Agate jars are an available choice when limiting contamination from metallic grinding surfaces is important.
Fit for your experiment
Define the analytes and permissible contamination before selecting jars and balls. Confirm whether separate sieving equipment is required; the mill itself does not establish an analytical particle-size cut.
How to use this specification
The disc revolves while the grinding jars rotate about their own axes. Media impacts and friction act on the sample. Speed, duration, loading and jar material jointly influence the result.
Before selecting a configuration
- Define feed size, target particle size and acceptable wear contamination.
- Choose jar capacity from the working sample load, leaving room for media movement.
- Confirm balancing, clamping and any cooling or atmosphere option for the exact model.
Key features
- The setup supports soil sample grinding and homogenization before analysis.
- Agate jars and media reduce the need for metal sample-contact surfaces.
- Grinding and an accompanying sieve stage can be combined in a sample-preparation workflow.
- Timed operation and alternating rotation support repeatable preparation schedules.
Construction details
- Sealed agate jars provide sample-contact surfaces.
- The source describes an adjustable jar-sealing arrangement.
- The planetary drive combines disc and jar motion.
- An optional electric sieve package supports staged size separation.
Configuration notes
Confirm the supplied jar set and sieve stack. Agate wear and cross-contamination still need evaluation against the analytes of interest; this configuration does not by itself establish analytical recovery or detection limits.
Technical specifications
Compare the exact model and configuration. Nominal vessel volume is not the usable sample load. Particle-size results depend on the material and process; confirm critical values in the quotation.

Plan delivery around your configuration
Send the required quantity, destination and target arrival date with your inquiry. Compare the expected dispatch date separately from freight transit and import clearance.
| Order route | What needs to be confirmed | Scheduling starts when |
|---|---|---|
| Available stock | Exact model, jar/media set, electrical version and allocation of the unit. | The available configuration and order/payment requirements are confirmed; request the dispatch date for that unit. |
| Standard production | Model, quantity, supplied accessories and the current production slot. | The order specification and agreed payment requirements are complete and the production slot is confirmed. |
| Light customization | Changes such as contact materials, controls or electrical configuration, subject to technical review. | The changes are approved and any required components and production slot are confirmed. |
| Project customization | Technical scope, drawings where required, review milestones and acceptance requirements. | The technical scope is approved and agreed commercial and procurement prerequisites are met. |
Lead times are quoted for the confirmed configuration and current schedule. A catalog listing does not indicate live stock. Ask the quotation to state the lead-time range, its start condition and the agreed shipping basis.
Agree what arrives with the order
Confirm the machine or accessory quantity, jars and media, voltage/frequency, manuals, packing arrangement and required shipping documents in the quotation. Discuss inspection records or photographs needed before dispatch and the checks to make when receiving the shipment.

Warranty and components
Our published service terms describe a one-year warranty and specified replacement conditions within the first month. Read the full warranty terms. Confirm coverage for the machine, motor/control components, jars, balls, liners and seals in the order; parts subject to wear need a separate coverage check.
Remote, spare-parts and on-site support
Contact TENCAN with the model, serial number and issue details for troubleshooting and parts identification. Provide your country and site location when asking about installation, training or on-site repair. Availability, travel, labor, freight and import costs must be agreed for the destination and service scope.
