Compare VivTek equipment for slurry preparation, film coating, electrode rolling and cutting, and coin cell crimping.

Where to start

Map the tools to the steps your lab performs. Compare mixing and coating equipment for film preparation, roller presses for the specified calendering step, cutters for the required geometry, and crimpers for the cell format.

Mix slurry and coat the film

  • Vacuum Slurry Mixer 50-250mL

    The slurry mixer listing offers 50, 100 and 250 mL jars. Confirm the practical fill and whether the specified jar is included.

  • Automatic Film Coater

    The automatic film coater is listed as a custom order. Request the substrate width, drive and coating options for the build on your quote.

  • Film Coating Applicator

    The applicator listing includes fixed-gap and micrometer-adjustable options. Confirm width and gap range for the specific applicator.

Compare roller presses for calendering

Choose cutting and slitting tools

  • High Precision Disc Cutter

    The precision cutter lists several die diameters for round electrodes and other samples. Confirm die diameter against the component, foil and case format.

  • Mini Disc Cutter

    The mini cutter lists multiple interchangeable die sizes. Compare the tool footprint and the exact die you need.

  • Electrode Slitting Machine

    The slitter listing gives a maximum slitting width of 300 mm and identifies blade-width options. Specify the input web and desired strip dimensions.

Match the crimper to the cell format

  • Hydraulic Crimper for Coin Cells

    The hydraulic crimper lists tooling for CR20-series cases and advises against glovebox use. Confirm die fit and intended installation.

  • Automatic Electric Crimper for Coin Cells

    The automatic electric crimper lists a motor drive and digital force display. Compare the supported case tooling and the space available for the equipment.

  • Compact CR20-series hydraulic crimper

    The compact hydraulic crimper lists CR20-series crimping and disassembly and advises against glovebox use. Verify the tooling included with the proposed configuration.

What to include in your quote request

  • Share slurry batch volume, substrate width, desired coating method and how you intend to measure the coated film.
  • Give the material dimensions, target geometry, and whether you need a manual, powered, cold or heated rolling step.
  • For coin cells, provide the case format and intended tooling. Ask which dies and parts are included for your configuration.
