The employs a rotating magnetic field to cause a stir bar immersed in a liquid to spin very quickly, thus stirring it
![Ball Mill Lab ball-mill](/sites/default/files/images/ball_mill.jpg)
Ball Mill
It is a type of grinder used to grind and blend materials.
![Hydraullic Lab hydraullic-press](/sites/default/files/images/hydraullic_press.jpg)
Hydraulic Press
It is used to make the pellets with the die punch. The maximum pressure that can be applied is 30 tons.
![Spin Coater Image spin-coater](/sites/default/files/images/spin_coater.jpg)
Programmable spin coater
Spin coating is a procedure used to deposit uniform thin films to flat substrates. Usually a small amount of coating material is applied on the center of the substrate, which is either spinning at low speed or not spinning at all. The substrate is then rotated at high speed in order to spread the coating material by centrifugal force.
