This device is intended for laboratory use only and requires trained personnel. The unit must be operated within a well-ventilated area or glovebox to contain any electrolyte fumes or debris released during the shell removal process.
- Glovebox Compatibility: The compact design allows the unit to pass through glove transition boxes with a diameter of 230mm or larger, but the operator must verify the glovebox port size before attempting to transfer the device.
- Sample Integrity Constraint: The micrometer scale accuracy of 0.05 mm must be used to set the cutting depth precisely to avoid damaging the internal cell during disassembly.
- Electrical Safety: The device operates on AC 220V at 150W, and the operator must ensure the power supply is properly grounded and the unit is disconnected before any maintenance or mold change.
This procedure outlines the safe and effective disassembly of cylindrical lithium battery cells using the Atomfair shell remover. Proper setup and operation are critical to prevent damage to the sample and ensure operator safety.
Required Equipment: Atomfair Cylindrical Battery Shell Remover (Model 682), 18650 or 26650 shell removal mold, Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including safety glasses and gloves
- Select and install the correct mold
Select the mold matching the battery size (18650 or 26650) and securely install it onto the device. - Set the cutting depth
Set the cutting depth using the micrometer scale, ensuring the setting is slightly less than the shell thickness to avoid damaging the internal cell. - Position the battery
Place the sealed cylindrical battery into the mold, ensuring it is properly seated and aligned. - Activate the cutting motor
Activate the cutting motor and allow the blade to reach the specified speed of 1000 rpm before advancing the blade towards the battery shell. - Advance the blade
Advance the blade slowly and steadily into the battery shell, using the micrometer to control the depth and avoiding sudden movements. - Retract the blade and remove the battery
Retract the blade completely and carefully remove the disassembled battery from the mold, taking care not to touch any exposed internal components. - Clean the work area
Clean the work area and the device of any debris or electrolyte residue after each use to maintain safety and performance.
What is the maximum battery size this cylindrical battery shell remover can handle, and does it support 26650 cells out of the box?
The Atomfair-BatteryShellRemover-682 is designed for 18-series and 26-series cylindrical batteries, including 18650 and 26650 cells. The standard configuration includes an 18650 shell removal mold, while the 26650 mold is available as an option, so you may need to order it separately for 26650 cells.
Can this shell remover be used inside a glovebox, and what are the size constraints?
Yes, the compact design allows it to pass through glove transition boxes with a diameter of 230mm and above, making it suitable for glovebox integration. The unit dimensions are 450×330×240 mm, and it weighs 22 kg, so ensure your glovebox port and interior space can accommodate these dimensions.
What is the precision of the micrometer scale, and how does it contribute to non-destructive disassembly?
The micrometer scale has an accuracy of 0.05 mm, allowing precise control during the shell removal process. This precision, combined with the cutting blade and mold both operating at 1000 rpm, helps achieve high shell removal precision without damaging the internal cell, ensuring sample integrity for subsequent research.
The Atomfair Cylindrical Battery Shell Remover (Model: Atomfair-BatteryShellRemover-682) is a compact, benchtop instrument designed for laboratory disassembly of 18-series and 26-series cylindrical lithium batteries, featuring a 0.05 mm micrometer scale for precise shell removal and a 1000 rpm cutting blade motor. Its 230 mm glove-box compatibility and standard 18650 mold (with optional 26650 mold) make it a practical tool for post-sealing sample extraction in research environments.
Positive
- High shell removal precision: The 0.05 mm micrometer scale accuracy and 1000 rpm mold speed enable precise disassembly without damaging the internal cell, preserving sample integrity for downstream analysis.
- Glove-box compatible compact design: With dimensions of 450×330×240 mm, the unit passes through glove transition boxes of 230 mm diameter or larger, allowing operation in inert-atmosphere gloveboxes common in battery research.
Trade-offs
- Requires AC 220V power supply: The 150W unit operates on AC 220V, which may require a voltage converter or dedicated power infrastructure in laboratories with 110V or 240V mains, adding setup complexity.
- Limited to 18-series and 26-series cells: The standard 18650 mold and optional 26650 mold restrict disassembly to these two cylindrical formats, requiring additional molds for other battery sizes, which are not included as standard.
