The agitator basket bead mill integrates stirring and ultra-fine grinding into one compact unit, adopting an internal basket grinding structure for circulating material refinement. Different from conventional continuous processing devices, it suits small-batch, multi-color production with easy disassembly and quick cleaning. As a special branch of agitator bead mill, it generates strong shear force via high-speed stirred beads to break down pigment, coating and ink particles evenly. Featuring stable operation and low material waste, it is widely adopted in paint, printing ink and cosmetic raw material manufacturing.
2-in-1 Dispersing & MillingImmersible Grinding BasketIdeal for Frequent Color ChangesThe LS agitator bead mill is engineered for small-batch production, integrating pre-dispersion and grinding within a single paint slurry tank. Its minimalist auxiliary configuration delivers three key operational advantages:
● Variable-speed spindle control: Enables smooth operation with low noise emission in the agitator bead mill
● Efficient color change procedure: Streamlined auxiliary structure accelerates color switching for the agitator bead mill
● Simplified maintenance: Significantly easier equipment cleaning and grinding media replacement
The Ultimate Solution for Batch Production
Setting up a traditional production line requires a pre-disperser tank, heavy pipework, a feed pump, and a separate bead mill. This multi-step process results in massive material waste and hours of cleaning time whenever you need to change colors or formulations.
The LS series agitator bead mill (Basket Mill) completely revolutionizes batch processing. It combines a high-speed disperser disc and an immersible grinding basket filled with Zirconia beads on a single agitator shaft. You simply lower the machine directly into your mixing tank. It draws the liquid in, grinds it through the basket, and expels it—performing pre-dispersion and ultra-fine milling simultaneously without any external pumps or pipes.
No Pipes, No Pumps, No Waste
By operating directly inside the mobile mixing tank (<100mm to <1000mm depending on model), the agitator bead mill eliminates the dead zones and product loss associated with complex pipe networks.
Rapid Color Changeovers
Because there are no external hoses to clean, washing the agitator bead mill between different colored batches is as simple as running it in a tank of solvent for a few minutes.
Integrated Suction and Shearing
The specialized agitator shaft features a self-suction impeller that continuously pulls un-milled material into the high-density bead basket, ensuring a perfectly homogenous batch.

Its greatest strength is the ability to process completely independent batches without complex plumbing. This makes it the absolute best choice for factories that frequently change colors or product formulations.
The LS series agitator bead mill features a precise 0.5mm screen aperture, allowing it to utilize highly efficient micro-beads (Zirconia Beads) for rapid, ultra-fine grinding.
An agitator bead mill is mainly used for fine grinding and dispersion of pigments, coatings, inks, chemicals, and advanced materials to achieve uniform particle size and high-quality results.
An agitator bead mill uses high-speed agitation and grinding media movement to create strong shear forces, providing faster grinding, better dispersion, and consistent product quality.
When selecting an agitator bead mill, consider material properties, required particle size, production capacity, grinding media type, and energy efficiency to ensure optimal performance.
