We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Particle Sizer", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Vibrating cup mill grinds quickly without mess from Fritsch, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Fritsch Vibrating Cup Mill Pulverisetter 9 has been designed to quickly grind hard and brittle materials down to analytical fineness and yet remains easy to clean". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Laser diffraction in particle size measurement from Fritsch: "The advantage of the Inverse Fourier Optic in laser diffraction was first recognised and patented by Fritsch, and later included in the laser diffraction standard ISO 13320-1 as Reverse Fourier Optic".
 
In March 2007, we covered the news from Fritsch concerning its Zoom-sizers Analysette 22 - take a look at Particle size and shape analysis in a single step which says: "Fritsch's user-friendly and multifunctional Zoom-sizers have a measuring range of 10nm - 2mm with patented zoom function for adaptation of the measuring range to the sample".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Malvern Instruments, Particle sizer proves its value in powder testing, as well as Nano materials research relies on particle sizer from Malvern Instruments, and Pharma firm expands use of particle sizer from Malvern Instruments.
