Abstract: A mill head for replaceable attachment to a base so as to collectively form a bone mill. The mill head includes shell with: a first opening in which bone stock is introduced into the head; and a second opening through which the bone chips are discharged. A cutting device is mounted in the shell to both rotate and move laterally. Attached to the cutting device are coupling features for engaging a drive spindle able to rotate the cutting device. Also attached to the housing is an alignment feature. The alignment feature engages a complementary alignment feature associated with the drive spindle so as a result of the engagement of the alignment features, the cutting device moves within the shell so that the cutting device coupling features are positioned to engage the drive spindle.

Abstract: A mill head for replaceable attachment to a base so as to collectively form a bone mill. The mill head includes: a first opening in which bone stock is introduced into the head; a cutting device that converts the bone stock into bone chips; a second opening through which the bone chips are discharged; and a third opening through which a motor integral with the base is attached to the cutting device. Internal to the mill head are containment rings. The containment rings prevent the discharge of material through the third opening. The containment rings are services the internal component of the mill head on which the cutting device rests.

Abstract: An auto-tracking spectrophotometer has a moveable look-ahead sensor for scanning at least a portion of a color matrix. The look-ahead sensor finds a portion of the color matrix for measurement by an optical system. The optical system for measuring the color matrix is then guided using the information provided by the look-ahead sensor.
