Fritsch disc mill on the GTC platform gets a new look
– Project title : Fritsch disc mill on the GTC platform gets a new look
– Project leader(s) : CARCAILLET Julien
– Team(s) involved : GTC Platform
– Amount : 6540 €
Project description
Our request concerns the replacement of the disks on the Pulverissette 13 mill (Fritsch ©). This equipment, housed within the GeoThermoChronology platform, is shared by all ISTerre staff and occasionally open to outside laboratories. The disks are wearing parts and no longer offer the original performance in terms of grinding size. In fact, the wear on the original disks (purchased in 2008) means that the granulometry cannot be reduced below 160 μm.
