Stainless steel cutting mill for cannabis and hemp size reduction

Leading laboratory equipment provider, Retsch, announces the availability of its Heavy-Duty Cutting Mill SM 300 in a corrosion-resistant 316L stainless steel version. Specifically designed for applications in the pharmaceutical and food industries, all parts in contact with the sample material, including the hopper, housing, and rotor, are constructed from 316L stainless steel.

This upgraded SM 300 model also offers a 30-litre receptacle of the same material, catering to the grinding needs of large sample batches. With variable speed control ranging from 100 to 3000 rpm and a diverse array of accessories, the SM 300 is optimised for cutting substantial volumes of cannabis plant material. It can efficiently process up to 40 kg/h of flower buds without causing warming effects or ingredient loss. The mill achieves grind sizes between 1 and 20 mm, depending on the material. The resulting pulverised sample is ideal for extraction via ethanol or supercritical CO₂.

For enhanced versatility, the unit can be equipped with an optional cyclone and a large 30-litre receptacle, both made of stainless steel 316L, to collect significant sample volumes. The design incorporates a fold-back hopper and smooth surfaces, ensuring swift and easy cleaning procedures.

Retsch provides a comprehensive range of mills and grinders tailored for sample preparation in cannabis and related product applications.
