PP-PM10L Planetary Vacuum Mixer for High‑Viscosity Lithium Battery Slurry – 4‑5x Higher Mixing Efficiency
Product Overview – Vacuum Planetary Mixer for Battery Slurry
PPCELL’s 10L planetary vacuum mixer is a high‑performance slurry mixing machine designed for high‑viscosity, high‑solid, and high‑temperature applications. It serves as a core power battery slurry mixer for lithium‑ion battery electrode pastes (cathode & anode). This 10L unit is ideal for R&D labs, pilot lines, and small‑batch production of EV and ESS batteries.

Key Advantages – Why Choose PPCELL Planetary Vacuum Mixer?
- High mixing efficiency: Dual planetary blades rotate on their own axes while orbiting, eliminating dead zones and achieving 4‑5x higher efficiency than conventional mixers.
- Vacuum degassing (≤ -0.095 MPa): Removes trapped air bubbles, prevents solvent evaporation, and enables vacuum feeding – critical for defect‑free electrode coating.
- Powerful high‑speed dispersion: Independent disperser with multi‑layer serrated discs at up to 2980 rpm, providing intense shear to rapidly break agglomerates.
- No dead corners & easy cleaning: A dedicated scraping blade continuously cleans the vessel wall. SUS304 stainless steel construction resists both water‑based and organic solvents.
- Precise temperature control: Jacketed vessel with intelligent PID controller supports electric, steam, hot oil, or water circulation for accurate heating/cooling.
- Hydraulic discharge system (optional): Follow‑plate extruder simplifies the discharge of extremely viscous materials, minimizing waste and cleaning effort.
Applications – Slurry Mixing Machine for Battery & Beyond
Our planetary vacuum mixer is widely used in the energy industry for preparing:
- Cathode slurries: NMC, LFP, LCO, NCA
- Anode slurries: Graphite, silicon‑carbon (Si‑C), LTO
- Next‑generation batteries: Solid‑state electrolyte pastes, gel polymer electrolytes
- Other high‑viscosity pastes: Adhesives, sealants, electronic pastes (silver paste, aluminum paste)
