The Atomfair VMD-863 mixer requires a stable AC220V power supply and proper tank sealing to avoid electrical and implosion hazards. The vacuum system must not exceed -0.08 MPa and the stirring speed is limited to 600 r/min to ensure safe operation.
- Power Supply Constraint: Verify the power supply matches the required AC220V rating before use.
- Vacuum Limit: Do not operate the vacuum pump beyond its maximum vacuum rating of -0.08 MPa to avoid overloading the system.
- Stirring Speed Limit: Set the stirring speed between 0 and 600 r/min; exceeding the maximum may cause mechanical failure.
- Tank Integrity: Inspect the stainless steel stirring tank for cracks or deformation before each use under vacuum.
- Bracket Safety: Engage the safety bracket before starting the vacuum or stirring process to secure the tank.
This HowTo describes the safe initialization and operation of the Atomfair Vacuum Planetary Mixer for high-viscosity slurry mixing under vacuum. The process includes setup, parameter configuration, vacuum application, and stirring with forward/reverse modes.
Required Equipment: Dual-axis screw stirring paddle, Built-in vacuum pump, Multi-speed controller
- Secure Stirring Tank
Secure the 500mL stainless steel stirring tank onto the mixer bracket and lock it in place. - Connect Power
Connect the equipment to a grounded AC220V power outlet and verify the power indicator illuminates. - Set Mixing Parameters
Set the desired mixing speed (up to 600 r/min), time (0-600 min), and enable forward or reverse stirring mode via the multi-speed controller. - Evacuate Chamber
Activate the built-in vacuum pump to evacuate the chamber until the pressure gauge reads -0.08 MPa. - Start Stirring
Start the stirring process by pressing the run button and monitor the operation for abnormal noise or vibration. - Stop and Release Vacuum
After the set time elapses, stop the stirring motor first, then slowly release the vacuum by opening the vent valve. - Power Down and Clean
Power down the equipment and disconnect from the electrical supply before cleaning or removing the tank.
How does the 600 r/min maximum stirring speed and 200W rated power affect mixing torque for high-viscosity ceramic or electrode slurries?
The 200W motor is specifically paired with a 600 r/min max speed to deliver sufficient torque for high-viscosity pastes, while the three-speed adjustable function allows the user to select lower speeds for thicker slurries to avoid motor strain. The dual-shaft planetary screw design further enhances shear and volumetric mixing without requiring higher RPM, making the system effective for viscosities typical of battery electrode slurries.
Is the 500 mL stainless steel vacuum tank compatible with abrasive ceramic powders or corrosive electrolyte formulations?
The standard 500 mL stainless steel vacuum tank is designed for mixing positive and negative electrode slurries and various ceramics, but for highly corrosive or abrasive materials, alternative tank compositions may be advised. The product allows customization of stirring shaft forms, combinations, and tank specifications upon request, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of chemical environments.
What electrical and vacuum infrastructure is required to operate the Atomfair VMD-863 vacuum planetary mixer?
The mixer requires a standard AC220V power supply (200W rated) and has an integrated vacuum pump that draws down to -0.08 MPa, eliminating the need for an external vacuum source. The unit measures 330×320×570 mm and weighs approximately 35 kg, fitting on a standard benchtop, with a bracket design that ensures safe operation during vacuum cycling.
The Atomfair VMD-863 is a compact 500 mL laboratory vacuum planetary mixer with dual-shaft screw paddles, forward/reverse stirring, and a built-in vacuum pump to -0.08 MPa, designed for bubble-free mixing of high-viscosity battery slurries and ceramic powders. Its three-speed adjustable operation and 600 rpm max speed make it suitable for small-scale R&D, though batch size and speed resolution are limited.
Positive
- Vacuum defoaming for high-density mixing: The built-in vacuum system eliminates bubbles during stirring, improving the filling property of materials and mold compactness for battery electrodes and ceramics.
- Dual-shaft planetary with forward/reverse stirring: Dual-axis screw paddles with forward and reverse rotation enable high-speed, uniform stirring of high-viscosity slurries, ensuring consistent dispersion.
Trade-offs
- 500 mL batch size limits throughput: The standard 500 mL stainless steel vacuum tank restricts batch volume to small-scale laboratory work, necessitating multiple runs for larger samples.
- Three-speed setting restricts continuous speed variation: Speed control is limited to three adjustable segments (multi-stage function), preventing fine, continuous speed ramping that might be required for some mixing protocols.
