XRD-Mill McCrone
Brand: Retsch | Category: Scientific & Laboratory Equipment
Micronising mill developed specifically for preparing samples for X-ray diffraction. Forty eight cylindrical grinding elements arranged in the jar apply a gentle grinding action that reduces particle size below 1 µm while preserving the crystal lattice, which is what a diffraction measurement depends on.

More from Materials Testing Lab
- GrindControl: Pressure and Temperature Measuring System
Measuring system that records pressure and temperature inside a sealed grinding jar during a run and transmits the data wirelessly. It turns a ball mill into an instrument for studying what actually happens during grinding, which matters for mechanochemical reactions where gas is evolved or consumed.
- TM 500: Drum Mill
Large drum mill for sample volumes up to 35 litres, grinding by friction and impact down to about 15 µm. It is the unit to use when a single sample is too large for a planetary or vibratory mill, for example in cement, mining and ceramics laboratories.
- BRILLANT 230: Cut-off Machine
Wet abrasive cut-off machine with manual wheel feed for sectioning metallographic samples up to 110 mm diameter. The aluminium body has openings on both sides so long parts can be passed through the cutting chamber, and the chamber itself is large enough for a range of clamping arrangements.
