Product Introduction
The Semi-Automatic Battery Electrode Die Cutting Machine MRX-MQ280 is designed for controlled forming and die cutting of positive and negative electrode sheets used in lithium-ion stacked battery development and production. Instead of relying on a conventional mechanical cutting process, the machine applies controlled pressure through a pneumatic-hydraulic intensifier to achieve repeatable electrode forming with interchangeable cutting dies.
The MRX-MQ280 accommodates both individual electrode sheets and roll-fed electrode materials, giving battery researchers and pilot-line operators greater flexibility when working with different electrode formats. Its maximum cutting area reaches 280 × 180 mm, while customized die geometries can be produced according to the required cell design. This makes the system suitable for experimental battery development as well as small-batch electrode preparation.
A precision upper and lower platen structure works together with a dedicated cutting tool to maintain dimensional consistency during the cutting cycle. The machine is also designed to minimize visible defects such as excessive burrs, powder shedding, and compression marks, helping users prepare cleaner electrode components for subsequent stacking and cell assembly processes.
For positioning accuracy, the MRX-MQ280 incorporates an infrared alignment system that helps operators locate electrode material before cutting. The cutting cycle can be counted automatically, while a safety light curtain interlock provides additional protection during machine operation. Its compact sheet-metal enclosure, straightforward controls, and accessible die-changing structure make the equipment practical for battery laboratories, pilot production areas, and electrode preparation workstations.

Main Functions
The primary function of the MRX-MQ280 is to convert continuous or pre-cut battery electrode material into precisely shaped electrode pieces through controlled die cutting. The machine can be configured for different electrode geometries by replacing the cutting die, allowing one platform to support multiple cell designs.
For lithium-ion battery development, the equipment can prepare both positive and negative electrode components before stacking or other cell assembly operations. Its adjustable cutting conditions allow operators to optimize the process according to electrode material characteristics, thickness, die geometry, and required production rhythm.
The infrared positioning function provides visual assistance during material alignment, which is particularly useful when the electrode outline must be positioned accurately relative to the cutting tool. Automatic cycle counting further simplifies batch tracking during repeated laboratory or pilot-line operations.
With support for both sheet and roll materials, the MRX-MQ280 can serve as a flexible electrode preparation unit between coating or material preparation processes and downstream battery assembly operations.
