This document outlines the operational constraints for the Atomfair CR-Press 712 button battery sealing press. It focuses on safety, environmental, and handling requirements for laboratory use.
- Overload Protection: The press is equipped with an adjustable safety valve that provides overload protection, requiring the operator to set the pressure limit according to the specific sealing or pressing application.
- Glovebox Compatibility: The compact dimensions of the press enable its use within a glovebox, but the unit's 25 kg weight requires a suitable support structure and careful handling during placement.
- Mold Interchangeability: The press is compatible with CR20 series coin cells by default, and requires a mold change to accommodate CR24 or CR1620 types, which must be performed with the press in a safe, unpressurized state.
This procedure describes the safe operation of the Atomfair CR-Press 712 for sealing button batteries. It covers setup, pressure adjustment, and the pressing process.
Required Equipment: Atomfair CR-Press 712, CR20 sealing mold
- Inspect the Press
Inspect the press and the sealing mold for any visible damage or debris before each use. - Install the Correct Mold
Install the appropriate mold for the battery type (e.g., CR20) and ensure it is firmly secured. - Set the Pressure Limit
Adjust the safety valve to set the desired maximum pressure, ensuring it does not exceed the recommended limit for the mold and battery components. - Position the Battery
Place the battery cell components into the bottom mold, ensuring proper alignment. - Actuate the Press
Operate the press lever to bring the upper mold down and apply pressure to the cell. - Release the Pressure
Release the pressure and raise the upper mold after the sealing process is complete. - Remove the Sealed Cell
Remove the sealed battery cell from the mold and inspect the crimp for uniformity.
What is the maximum operating force required for the Atomfair CR-Press 712 to achieve a proper seal?
The Atomfair CR-Press 712 requires an operating force of less than 5.5 kg, thanks to its special hydraulic structure that amplifies manual input. This low-force operation is designed to reduce user fatigue while maintaining consistent sealing pressure, as indicated by the built-in pressure gauge for accurate control.
Can the Atomfair CR-Press 712 be used to seal CR24 or CR1620 coin cells, or is it limited to CR20 series?
The Atomfair CR-Press 712 is compatible with CR20 series coin cells out of the box, but it can also accommodate CR24 and CR1620 sizes by changing the mold. This interchangeability also enables additional applications such as battery disassembly, electrode pressing, and powder pellet preparation, making it a versatile tool for lab-scale R&D.
Is the Atomfair CR-Press 712 suitable for use inside an argon-filled glovebox?
Yes, the Atomfair CR-Press 712 is designed with a compact footprint of 232 mm × 165 mm × 320 mm and a weight of 25 kg, making it glove-box compatible. Its aluminum alloy and high-strength chrome steel construction, with eco-friendly plating, ensures durability and corrosion resistance in controlled atmospheres, while the safety valve provides overload protection during operation.
The Atomfair CR-Press 712 is a compact, glove-box-compatible button battery sealing press engineered for lab-scale R&D, with a precision hydraulic structure that requires less than 5.5 kg of operating force and supports CR20 series cells, with CR24 and CR1620 compatibility via mold changes.
Positive
- Precision hydraulic sealing mechanism: The special hydraulic structure enables effortless operation with under 5.5 kg of force, while precision mold design ensures stable, consistent sealing for reproducible coin cell fabrication.
- Glove-box compatible compact footprint: Dimensions of 232 mm × 165 mm × 320 mm and a 25 kg weight allow integration into glove-box environments, enabling moisture- and oxygen-sensitive battery assembly.
Trade-offs
- Mold change required for non-CR20 sizes: Compatibility with CR24 and CR1620 cells requires changing molds, adding setup time and requiring additional tooling inventory for multi-format research.
- Aluminum alloy structural limits: The aluminum alloy frame, while lightweight, may limit maximum pressing force compared to all-steel presses, potentially restricting use with harder electrode materials or thicker pellets.
