MSK-HRP-3-E Hot Rolling Press with Dual Independent Temperature Control up to 230°C and 10 Ton Pressure Capacity
The MSK-HRP-3-E hot rolling press is engineered for laboratory-scale calendaring and lamination tasks, particularly suited for battery electrode fabrication and similar thin film processing. It enables precise thickness control and uniform heating, essential for achieving consistent material properties in layered structures.
This rolling press incorporates two independently controlled rollers, each heated up to 230°C with programmable temperature controllers. The adjustable roller gap ranges from 0 to 6 mm, allowing fine tuning of the rolling thickness. Pressure is applied manually via a hydraulic pump, capable of exerting up to 10 metric tons, accommodating a variety of material hardness and thickness requirements.

Typical Applications
Ideal for calendaring and lamination of battery electrodes, thin films, and layered materials requiring precise thickness control and uniform heating. Suitable for research and development in battery manufacturing and materials science.
Configuration & Operating Notes
The press includes two digital micrometers for precise roller gap measurement and a manual hydraulic pump for pressure application. An optional electric hydraulic pump is available to maintain constant pressure automatically. Users should avoid rolling materials harder than 50 HRC to prevent damage. Multi-step thickness reduction is recommended for calendaring, with increments of approximately 0.02 mm per pass. Roller surfaces should be cleaned after each use, preferably with acetone, to prevent corrosion and maintain performance.
