Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ball mills, in particular to a ball mill. Background Art

[0002] Ball mills are widely used in powder manufacturing, small-scale sample preparation, analysis and testing sample preparation and other fields. However, current ball mills require manual collection of ground samples and manual cleaning of the material bowl after sample grinding.
