MSK-2150-DC Electric Cold Rolling Press with Variable Speed, 150mm Width x 94mm Diameter Rollers, Ar Glove-Box Compatible
The MSK-2150-DC is engineered to support advanced research in lithium-ion battery electrode fabrication by enabling precise control over electrode thickness and density through cold rolling. This electric rolling press is particularly suited for processing coated and dried electrode sheets, allowing researchers to fine-tune material properties critical to battery performance. Its compatibility with argon glove box environments ensures safe handling of air-sensitive materials such as lithium metal foils.
The press employs dual hardened steel rollers, each 150 mm wide and 94 mm in diameter, with a chromium electroplated coating and surface hardness of HRC 60-62. The rolling gap is adjustable from 0 to 1.0 mm, controlled by dual micrometers with 0.01 mm resolution, enabling thickness adjustments up to 3 mm. Rolling speed is digitally controlled and variable from 0 to 50 mm per second, with forward, stop, and backward operation modes. The machine’s torque capability reaches 850 N, ensuring effective pressing force for electrode calendaring without damaging materials below 20 HRC hardness.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
This rolling press is optimized for lithium-ion battery electrode research, enabling precise calendaring of coated and dried electrode sheets to adjust thickness and density. It is suitable for use within argon or nitrogen glove boxes, making it ideal for processing air-sensitive materials such as lithium metal foils. The equipment supports multi-step thickness reduction with fine control to prevent damage to delicate samples.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
Optional integration with the MSK-2150-RD Roll-to-Roll system is available for automated film unwinding and winding during calendaring. Operators must clean roller surfaces with acetone after each use and apply anti-rust lubricant if the machine is idle for extended periods. The press is not suitable for materials harder than 20 HRC and should never be used on materials exceeding 50 HRC hardness. When rolling lithium metal foil, use high purity mineral oil as a lubricant to prevent sticking. Thickness reduction per calendaring step should not exceed 0.02 mm to avoid sample damage.
