Rate Voltage

Motor

• High torque 24VDC motor with reducing gear (1:75) 
• 0.8A
• Rated power 40W
• Speed Indicator Display: 0~26 mm/s (real linear speed of rollers)
• Digital control with constant output power 

Surface Hardness of Rollers

• HRC60-62
• Never roll materials with hardness > 50HRC (bench top rolling press is not suitable for calendaring thick metals. For applications with such needs, please consult with MTI engineers.)

• MSK-HRP-04 R2R system can be integrated with the calendaring machine at extra cost to enable the automatic film unwinding -> winding after calendering. Please click underline to view product details.

Application Notes

Important announcement (please read this before placing the order)

• The MSK-HRP-01 roller is specially designed for battery R&D in terms of its advantages as affordable, compact, and precise. Please strictly follow the instructions to operate
• Must use acetone to clean rollers' surface after each use
• Never rolling material with hardness > 50HRC
• If the machine will be idle for a long period of time, please apply anti-rust lubricant on the rollers
• The minimum thickness of the rolled sheet should depend on the physical properties of the material. Here are some results from our test:
• Please refer to this instruction on how to calculate rolling pressure from the roller gap (reference only)

• This rolling press can be used to make free-standing 2D metal nanosheets by a repeated process of folding and calendaring stacked metal sheets (See reference below)
•  Reference Articles: 2D Metals by Repeated Size Reduction

• CE Certified
• NRTL(UL61010) or CSA certification is available upon request at an extra cost

• Please refer to this instruction on how to calculate rolling pressure from the roller gap (reference only)
• Analysis of geometric and electrochemical characteristics of lithium cobalt oxide electrodes with different packing densities

• Do not touch the surface of the rolling part of the machine when the rollers are heated up or running.
• Due to the influence of working environments, the temperature on the roller surface may be different from the display on the controller. You may calibrate the temperature by EQ-TC-calibrator-LD, and refer to the instructions here from time to time to ensure heating temperature accuracy
• Never roll materials with hardness > 50HRC
• Multi-step thickness calendaring needed: While calendaring the sample sheet, make each calendaring decrement of 0.02mm compared with the sheet's original thickness.
• Never calendaring decrement over 0.02mmcomparing with original sheet thickness each calendaring.
• Heating beyond 100ºC may cause roller deformation and inaccuracy. 
• To prolong the lifespan of the roller bearings, regular lubrication is recommended. 
• Clean the roller surface for each rolling and Use acetone to clean and lubricate when not in use to avoid corrosion
• This rolling machine can be used under Ar gas
• It is not allowed to use any MTI product in any hazardous location, especially prohibited from using in Class I environments (flammable gasses & vapor).
