The Retsch PM 400 Planetary Ball Mill is a high-performance laboratory mill designed for mixing, crushing, homogenizing, and colloidal reduction of various solids and suspensions. Featuring four grinding cups, it efficiently processes soft, hard, fragile, fibrous, dry, and wet materials, making it essential for biotechnology and pharmaceutical sample preparation, as well as applications in recycling and agriculture.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Voltage: 220-230 V, 50/60 Hz
  • Current: 12.5 A
  • Power: 2200 W
  • Protection class: IP30
  • Operating speed: 30–400 rpm

This planetary ball mill supports precise and reproducible sample grinding, crucial for molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing, and synthetic biology research workflows. Its robust design and adjustable speed range facilitate effective particle size reduction and homogenization, widely adopted in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and biomedical engineering settings.

The Retsch PM 400 Planetary Ball Mill is favored among molecular biology researchers and scientists requiring a reliable mill for live-cell imaging sample prep, fluorescence analysis, and biotechnological assay development. Its versatile processing capabilities optimize sample preparation for downstream analytical techniques across clinical diagnostics and cell imaging research.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
