MSK-HRP-04 Heated Rolling Press with 200°C Max Temperature, 8″ Width, Variable Speed, and Argon Gas Compatibility
The MSK-HRP-04 is a desktop heated rolling press engineered for the precise preparation of thin electrodes and soft materials, particularly in flexible battery development. It supports processing under an inert argon gas atmosphere, ensuring material integrity during sensitive operations. This model is optimized for materials with hardness below RC 45, making it unsuitable for harder metals or thick calendering tasks.
Equipped with two independent digital temperature controllers, the MSK-HRP-04 can heat rollers up to 200°C with programmable segments for precise thermal management. The rollers are made from high-strength hardened steel with a chromium-plated surface for corrosion resistance. The roller gap is adjustable from 0 to 1.2 mm, with gap tolerance varying slightly depending on temperature. A high-torque motor drives the rollers at variable speeds up to 26 mm/s, with real-time digital speed display.
Key Features
- Dual temperature controllers with 30 programmable segments, max 200°C, ±5°C accuracy
- Roller width 200 mm, made of hardened steel (RC > 62) with chromium plating for corrosion resistance
- Adjustable roller gap from 0 to 1.2 mm with temperature-dependent tolerance
- High torque motor with variable speed control and digital speed display (0–26 mm/s)
- Safe operation under argon gas atmosphere
- Mechanical dial gauge included for thickness measurement (0–3 mm range, 0.01 mm accuracy)
- Optional digital micrometer upgrade available for enhanced thickness precision

Typical Applications
This heated rolling press is ideal for producing thin electrodes for flexible batteries and processing soft materials requiring precise thickness control. It is suitable for laboratory research and development in battery electrode fabrication and other soft material calendaring tasks under inert atmospheres.
Configuration & Operating Notes
The unit includes a mechanical dial gauge for thickness measurement. A digital micrometer is available as an optional upgrade for higher accuracy. The rollers must be cleaned after each use, preferably with acetone, to prevent corrosion. The heating rods are consumable parts and can be replaced as needed. The machine is not suitable for materials with hardness above RC 45 or for calendering thick metals. Multi-step thickness reduction is recommended, with decrements not exceeding 0.02 mm per pass. The device is CE certified, and additional certifications can be requested. It is not permitted for use in hazardous or flammable environments.
