Typical Applications
The MSK-4680 is ideal for battery research laboratories and quality control facilities requiring safe and contamination-free disassembly of cylindrical battery cells. It supports analysis of internal components, failure investigation, and recycling preparation for various cylindrical cell formats.
Configuration & Operating Notes
The standard package includes cutting discs for both large and small cylindrical cases and a set of cylindrical case holders for multiple cell sizes. Additional cutting discs and holders can be purchased separately. To extend blade life, a slow feeding speed is recommended, typically requiring about 45 seconds to cut through a cell casing. When operating outside an inert atmosphere, feeding inert gas through the protective cover’s gas inlet is advised to minimize sparks and enhance safety.
