This hammer type mill is specially designed for sample preparation for falling number, gluten index and other reference analysis methods. Built with a focus on the user, the Hammertec is smaller and lighter and designed to make hammer mill operations quieter by at least 1.5 dB compared to existing solutions.
The FOSS Hammertec is a hammer type mill specially designed for standard sample preparation/pre-process solution for falling number analysis (Alphatec FNo), NIR, nitrogen combustion methods, and other reference analyses.
Modern design helps to avoid sample carryover
Hammertec is designed using innovative materials and non-stick surfaces. A cyclone sample outlet for convenient sample collection makes the mill virtually self-cleaning between grindings. According to laboratory tests, the reduction in sample carryover is at least 7%.
Smaller and lighter than other hammer mills
Hammertec has a smaller footprint allowing you to free up space in the laboratory. It is significantly lighter than any other hammer mill on the market, making it easier to move and keep the surrounding area clean.
A quieter hammer mill for a safer working environment
A robust and compact design, insulated for low noise level, makes Hammertec significantly quieter than current products in the market. Hammertec is between 1.5 dB and 6 dB quieter than other hammer mills, eliminating the need for ear protection.
Sample types
Dry, flowable whole cereal grain samples: Common wheat, common rye, durum wheat, barley.
Technology
Crushes samples into a fine and homogenous powder using high speed rotation of a hammer by which the sample is impacted.
Easy maintenance
Exchanging the motor belt on your mill has never been easier. Designed with easy opening and access to the belt, makes it possible even for non-experts to replace hassle free.
Meets requirements of AACCI/ICC/ISO methods
AACC: Sample mill, with 0.5- or 0.8-mm screen to produce meal with particle size distribution as follows: >500 μm, 0–10%; >210 but <500 μm, 25–40%; <210 μm, 75–50%.
ISO: Laboratory mill, hammer type, and fitted with a 0,8 mm screen allowing the production of a wholemeal product meeting the particle size specification as follows: 100% passing through 710 μm sieve; 95-100% for 500 μm sieve; <80% for 200 μm sieve.
