MSK-4680 Compact Manual Disassembling Machine for Cylindrical Battery Cases 18650 to 4680
The MSK-4680 is engineered to facilitate the safe and controlled manual disassembly of cylindrical battery cases ranging from smaller cells like 18650 up to large formats such as 4680 and 46110. Its compact design allows seamless integration inside glove boxes, which is critical for maintaining an inert atmosphere and preventing contamination of sensitive electrolyte and active materials during the disassembly process.
Operation is straightforward and can be mastered quickly, aided by a safety protection cover that includes a controlled gas inlet to minimize sparks by allowing inert gas flow. The machine’s versatility is enhanced by interchangeable cutting discs and cylindrical case holders, accommodating a wide range of cell diameters and lengths.
Key Features
- Manual operation with compact body suitable for glove box environments to avoid electrolyte contamination.
- Adjustable slicing motor speed from 5000 to 16000 rpm for precise cutting control.
- Chuck spin speed adjustable between 50 and 3000 rpm, supporting workpieces up to 46 mm diameter and 100 mm length.
- Includes 2″ metal/inox cutting discs for large cylindrical cases (4680, 46110) and 3″ fiber cutting discs for smaller cells (18650, 21700, 26650).
- Set of cylindrical case holders compatible with 18650, 21700, 26650, 32650, 4680, and 46110 cells included.
- Protective cover with controlled gas inlet to feed inert gas and reduce sparks during cutting.
- UL certified 12VDC power adaptor included; no additional NRTL certification required.

Typical Applications
The MSK-4680 is ideal for battery research and development laboratories requiring safe and contamination-free disassembly of cylindrical battery cells for analysis, recycling, or failure investigation. Its glove box compatibility ensures sensitive materials remain protected from air exposure during processing.
Configuration & Operating Notes
The standard package includes cutting discs and cylindrical case holders for multiple cell sizes, along with a protective cover featuring a gas inlet. To extend blade life, a slow feeding speed is recommended, typically requiring about 45 seconds to cut through a cylindrical casing. When operating outside an inert atmosphere, feeding inert gas through the cover’s inlet is advised to minimize sparking. Additional blades and holders can be purchased separately as needed.
