Product catalog summary
Introduction
The IQ MILL-2070 is a newly developed device designed to simplify the grinding process, particularly for microanalysis. It ensures sample uniformity, homogeneity, and reproducibility by pulverizing samples efficiently.

Key Features
  • Ease of Use: The device is user-friendly, requiring only basic settings such as grinding speed, time, number of cycles, and waiting time, which can be adjusted using a rotary knob and touch panel.
  • Efficiency: Capable of milling up to three samples simultaneously, the IQ MILL-2070 uses a high-speed 3-D figure-8 grinding method to significantly reduce grinding time.
  • Cryo-Milling Capability: Equipped with a liquid nitrogen cooling kit, it allows for cryogenic grinding with minimal nitrogen consumption, making it energy-efficient.

Specifications
  • Grinding Temperatures: Operates at room temperature or below using refrigerants like liquid nitrogen.
  • Setting Parameters: Rotation speed ranges from 50 to 3000 rpm, with rotation time adjustable in 10-second increments from 10 to 60 seconds. Pause time between cycles can be set from 10 to 600 seconds, and the number of cycles ranges from 1 to 10.
  • Safety Features: Includes a combination of double micro switch and manual lock for enhanced safety.
  • Dimensions and Power: The unit measures 270 x 340 x 300 mm and weighs 12 kg. It operates on 100/120 VAC or 200/240 VAC power supply.

Applications
The IQ MILL-2070 is suitable for grinding a variety of synthetic and biopolymer samples, including high-density polyethylene, polystyrene, and nylon, as well as biological samples like canine teeth and seaweed stems. It addresses common issues in grinding such as high liquid nitrogen consumption and noise levels.

Conclusion
The IQ MILL-2070 offers a powerful, quick, and simple solution for sample pretreatment, particularly for hard-to-grind polymers. It is a benchtop device that combines grinding, agitating, and dispersing capabilities, making it ideal for laboratory use.

IQ MILL-2070-1

Powerful, Quick, Simple, and Benchtop Perfect for pretreatment of hard-to-grind polymers - Specifically designed for grinding, agitating, and dispersing various samples In sample pretreatment, grinding samples into fine powders is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. The newly developed IQ MILL-2070 is a device that makes grinding a simple process. Especially in microanalysis, pulverizing samples is a required pretreatment for sample uniformity, homogeneity, and reproducibility. Various methods have been devised, but they have problems such as a large amount of liquid nitrogen consumption, grinding time of more than ten minutes and a noise level of 90 dB during that time. The "IQ MILL-2070" is a benchtop grinding, agitating, and dispersing device that uses a special high elastic belt to achieve a high-speed three-dimensional figure-eight motion to solve these problems*. *Japanese Patent: 7064786 Features of IQ MILL-2070 1. Easy to use and simple to operate ●Grinding samples by simple operation Required settings are only: grinding speed, grinding time, number of cycles, and waiting time. The settings can be easily done with the rotary knob and touch panel. 2. Fast and efficient grinding ●Milling up to three samples at a time in the same program Equipped with a holder that holds up to three sample containers for efficient grinding. ●Powerful impact and shear crushing capabilities bring significant reduction in grinding time High-speed 3-D figure-8 grinding method enables sample grinding in a short period of time. 3. Liquid nitrogen cooling kit for cryo-milling ● A compact design in which only the sample container can be precooled with liquid nitrogen before grinding. The minimum liquid nitrogen consumption is only about 300 mL for energy saving. The kit contains a cooling container and cooling holder. ●Grinding at room temperature for most materials.
