FRITSCH’s highly versatile Pulverisette 19 universal cutting mills can reduce dry materials, whether tough, brittle, hard, soft, fibrous or temperature-sensitive to a fine powder with unsurpassed ease and efficiency. The Pulverisette 19’s variable speed can be adjusted from 300 to 3,000 rpm, enabling rapid and reliable comminution.  The slow-speed universal cutting mill has a variable speed of 50 – 700 rpm finely grinds even the smallest of samples.

What are the main advantages of owning a universal cutting mill?

FRITSCH’s universal cutting mills can have the rotor speed adjusted by the operator to suit the sample being comminuted, so it can offer a powerful and fine level of grinding. 

The universal cutting mills are simple, quick and efficient to clean – free of residues.

Stainless steel models are available for analytical labs, as well as the food and pharma sectors.

There are a variety of rotors and knife geometries, changeable blades, efficient and user-friendly sieve cassettes and other innovations to make the operator’s experience easier.

To further enhance performance, operators can combine the universal cutting mill with Fritsch’s Cyclone separator as a sample exhaust. This simplifies sample feeding, increases throughput, reduces thermal load and enables a final comminution with finer particles, even from the toughest material.

A cutting mill designed for simple maintenance
