Pluto Mills patented drive system for planetary ball mills allows for increased adaptability. The use of a belt and pulley system reduces maintenance and increases reliability while accommodating a wider range of milling power and scales. This is due to the pulley system being able to quickly change depending on application requirements. An example would be the transition from laboratory to commercial scales (10s of grams to kilograms per run). Usually this would require multiple machines and a lot of initial investment and overheads. Our drives system does not only allow this transition to occur within a single machine but also gives the ability to iterate it, giving a better perspective on how best optimize the scaling process.
