MSK510M-mach Compact Hydraulic Crimping Machine for Sealing Cylindrical Battery Cases
The MSK510M-mach is engineered to provide reliable sealing of cylindrical battery cases commonly used in battery research and development. Its compact design allows placement inside glove boxes, minimizing contamination risks to sensitive electrolyte materials during cell assembly. This feature is critical for maintaining the integrity of battery components in controlled environments.
Operation is straightforward and safe, enabling users to master the crimping process within minutes. The machine applies manual hydraulic pressure up to 5 tons, monitored by a pressure gauge calibrated up to 3500 psi (250 kg/cm²). It is constructed with stainless steel for durability and chemical resistance.
Key Features
- Manual hydraulic pressing mechanism delivering up to 5 tons of force for secure crimping.
- Pressure gauge range from 0 to 3500 psi (0-250 kg/cm²) for precise pressure control.
- Compact stainless steel body suitable for use inside glove boxes to prevent electrolyte contamination.
- Interchangeable crimping dies available for multiple cylindrical cell sizes including CR123, 18650, 21700, 26650, 32650, AA, and AAA.
- Updated two-step precision dies for 18650 and 21700 cells ensure wrinkle-free seals on grooved cases.
- CE certified and patented design (Patent 201120464653.7) ensuring compliance and innovation.
- Optional customized dies available for other cylindrical cell types upon request.

Typical Applications
This crimping machine is ideal for battery R&D laboratories focusing on cylindrical cell assembly and sealing. It supports a range of common cylindrical battery sizes used in research, prototyping, and small-scale production. The device is especially suited for environments requiring contamination control such as glove boxes.
Configuration & Operating Notes
Before crimping, the cylindrical case must be grooved using a compatible grooving machine (e.g., MSK-500) to ensure proper sealing. Users must select the appropriate die set for the specific cylindrical cell type. Customized dies can be requested for non-standard sizes.
The hydraulic crimper should not be operated inside a glove box to avoid potential oil leakage. For glove box use, a compressed gas-driven crimper is recommended and available upon request.
