The present invention relates to a grinding media mill (2) for obtaining polyisoprene and/or other apolar materials from raw plant materials, having a drum (4) which is peripherally closed and has a milling chamber (10) that is peripherally closed and located in the interior of the drum (4). The aim of the invention is to create a grinding media mill that enables careful processing of the raw plant materials, on the one hand, but is also variable in processing intensity and throughput time, on the other hand. This aim is achieved, according to the invention, in that the milling chamber (10) is divided into a plurality of sections along the rotation axis (6) by partitions arranged crosswise to the rotation axis (6), the partitions have passage openings through which the ground product mixture can pass from one section into an adjacent section, wherein the passage openings are sized such that they retain the grinding media located in a section, and the motor (8) is provided with an apparatus (38) by means of which the rotational speed of the drum (4) is variably adjustable.

The present invention relates to a dry process for isolating clean glandular trichomes from a trichome bearing plant material, wherein the trichome bearing plant material is frozen at −20° C. and subject to shattering and softening sequence.

The present invention provides an apparatus for suspending and guiding at least one tool or work platform externally about a grinding mill, the apparatus including (a) a fixed track suspended above the grinding mill and extending about an outer periphery thereof in a plane substantially parallel to a surrounding floor of the mill, and, (b) at least one carriage assembly mounted to the track for suspending and guiding the at least one tool or work platform, the at least one carriage assembly configured to provide the at least one tool or work platform with at least two degrees of freedom, and wherein a first degree of freedom is linear movement along a first axis orthogonal to the surrounding floor of the mill.

The present invention provides a system and method for more efficient utilization of comminution mills. Sensors are provided in the liners placed within the mill shell. The sensors may include RFID tags, liner wear profile sensors (e.g., such as an ultrasonic sensor), an inertial sensor (preferably included both an inclinometer and an accelerometer, and an acoustic sensor, among others. When the liners are installed in the shell, the RFID tag is used to register the location of the liner within the shell. In operation, the information provided by the sensors is collected by a data transmission unit and sent by transmitter over the air to a computer having an antenna and receiver for such data. The data is correlated and a processor generates data for display in regions on a display device.
