Precision manual crimping system for cylindrical cell sealing in lithium battery R&D
The Cell Lab Compact Hydraulic Crimper is purpose-built for sealing a wide range of cylindrical battery cells—including CR123, 18650, 26650, 32650, 21700, AA, and AAA formats. Engineered for laboratory and R&D environments, it delivers reliable sealing force through a manual hydraulic mechanism capable of up to 5 tons of pressure.
Its compact stainless-steel body and glovebox-compatible design enable use in argon-filled atmospheres, ensuring electrolyte purity during final cell assembly. Ideal for pilot-scale or academic battery laboratories, this crimper guarantees consistent and leak-free results.
Glovebox-Compatible Design:
Compact footprint allows operation inside inert gas environments, protecting cell electrolyte integrity during sealing.
Manual Hydraulic Force up to 5 T:
Provides stable, repeatable crimping pressure suitable for cylindrical cell sealing and pilot-scale R&D.
Interchangeable Crimping Dies:
Supports multiple formats (CR123, 18650, 26650, 32650, 21700, AA, AAA) with optional custom die sets available.
Durable Stainless-Steel Construction:
Built with precision-machined steel housing and integrated pressure gauge for safe, long-term performance.
Pre-Grooved Cylinder Requirement:
Designed for use with pre-grooved cell cases—compatible with Cell Lab grooving machines.

Q1: Can this crimper be used inside a glovebox?
Yes. Its compact and enclosed design allows operation within argon or nitrogen gloveboxes.
Q2: Which cell sizes are supported?
Standard dies include CR123, 18650, 26650, 32650, 21700, AA, and AAA formats. Custom sizes are available.
Q3: Does it require an electrical connection?
No. It operates purely through manual hydraulic pressure, making it suitable for inert environments.
Q4: What is the maximum sealing pressure?
The unit delivers up to 5 T hydraulic pressure, ensuring consistent, leak-free crimps.
Q5: Is pre-grooving necessary?
Yes. Cylindrical cans must be pre-grooved to achieve proper mechanical sealing.
