Thank you for visiting the secondary battery exhibition.

Regarding the particle dispersion method for slurry, we propose the solid kneading method → CDM process (patented) [related video available].

We propose a CDM process using our Filmix® as a method for manufacturing electrode slurries for lithium-ion batteries. Compared to traditional solid kneading methods, it offers the following advantages: - Short processing time - High dispersion capability - High reproducibility - Easy scale-up for mass production ■ Solid Kneading Method Process We use kneading machines such as Hibis Dispermix. The typical process involves adding all the powdered raw materials → gradually adding liquid raw materials → kneading until it forms a crumbly to dough-like consistency → further adding liquid raw materials gradually for dilution → performing viscosity adjustment and degassing. <Problems with the Solid Kneading Method> - Maximum scale is around 1,000L - Takes 5 to 10 hours per batch - Low reproducibility ■ CDM Process Steps In the CDM process, instead of taking 5 to 10 hours, we slurry the mixture by adding all liquid and powdered raw materials at once and pre-mixing for about 30 minutes until it can be pumped → then we continuously process the entire amount using Filmix® in 30 minutes. <Effects of the CDM Process> 1) MAX processing of 1,920L/H 2) High reproducibility due to fewer man-hours 3) Reduction in the number of personnel required 4) Decrease in the number of devices and installation area needed

Continuous manufacturing process and equipment for electrode slurry using Filmix® developed for dispersing electrode materials of lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells.

CDM stands for Continuous Dispersion Mixing, which is a continuous manufacturing process for electrode slurries using Filmix® developed for the dispersion applications of electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells. The nanoparticle design mixer (dispersion stirring device) Filmix® 56-L type is compatible with both batch and continuous processes. It can also be used by setting up a continuous line on a tabletop. ▼▼ Basic Procedure for Continuous Operation ▼▼ 1) Preliminary dispersion with a homodisperse or similar device 2) Transfer of the processing liquid using a pump 3) Dispersion with Filmix® ■ This single unit can be compactly used from research and development to small-scale production! ■ There are many successful scale-up cases from research machines to production machines! ◆◇━━━━━━━━━━ 　　Testing Now Available! ━━━━━━━━━━━◇◆ If you have materials that are problematic for dispersion or homogenization, please give it a try. We are currently offering two booklets related to battery manufacturing as a gift. 　◎ 'Battery Device Countermeasures Booklet'　　 　◎ 'Booklet on Fuel Cell MEA Manufacturing' * If you would like to request a test or booklets, please feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

This is a stirring device that achieves sharp particle size distribution and nanoparticle production through a unique stirring principle called the thin film rotation method developed by Primix!

Filmix® is a mixer (dispersion stirring device) that enables sharp particle size distribution and micronization to nanometer sizes, which was difficult to achieve with conventional high-speed stirrers. Emulsification and dispersion in seconds significantly shorten research and development time. The 56-L model can operate in both batch and continuous modes on a tabletop. Once the conditions are established in batch mode, continuous experiments can be conducted by setting up a line. This single unit can be compactly used for everything from research and development to small-scale production! ◆◇◆ Testing Now Available! ◆◇◆ If you would like to request a test, please feel free to contact us.

[Video available] An ultra-high-speed multi-stirring system with a maximum rotation speed of 22,000 r/min! It is an emulsification and dispersion testing machine that can accommodate vacuum, continuous, and batch types.

Here are the appealing points of using the Lab Solution® emulsion dispersion testing machine, which is the de facto standard for consolidated evolution! ▼ ▼ ▼ ○ There are plenty of stirring options that can be easily swapped, making it easy to try various configurations during the initial investigation phase. ○ You can select the appropriate model based on the stirring purpose and the processing liquid. ○ The increased motor power allows you to confirm the load condition, providing peace of mind when increasing the rotation speed. Materials that were previously overloaded can be retested. ○ The temperature sensor is standard equipment, and the temperature is displayed on the operation panel. This improves work efficiency compared to testing with a separate thermometer.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

Fukuda's new flagship model. - Masterless type (FLA-0200 series) - General type (FLA-0201 series) Two models of air leak testers. With the mastering correction function, high-precision measurements can be achieved in a short time. Please take a look at the catalog.

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm.
