Planetary Vacuum Mixer XN-PVM-500mL

Planetary Vacuum Mixer XN-PVM-500mL is a compact benchtop planetary mixer with an integrated vacuum system, designed for mixing lithium-ion battery cathode and anode slurries, ceramic powders, and other viscous or powder materials in laboratory and pilot R&D environments.

Mixing under vacuum eliminates bubbles for improved slurry density and homogeneity. The unit features a dual-shaft planetary mixing blade (optional single-blade configuration), forward/reverse rotation, PLC-controlled variable speed with four programmable speed segments, and a 500 mL standard pot (1 L / 250 mL planetary and 150 / 100 / 50 mL single-blade pots available on request).

Name: Planetary Vacuum Mixer XN-PVM-500mL

Equipment Type: Benchtop Planetary Vacuum Mixer

Model: XN-PVM-500mL

Brand: Xnergy

Product Introduction:

Planetary Vacuum Mixer XN-PVM-500mL is a compact benchtop mixing system that combines planetary stirring and dispersion in a single sealed vessel under vacuum. It is designed for laboratory and pilot-scale mixing of lithium-ion battery cathode and anode slurries, powder-based materials, and ceramic compounds. Mixing under vacuum removes entrapped air, improving slurry homogeneity, packing density, and electrode coating quality. The unit is supplied with a 500 mL standard pot; additional pot sizes are available on request.

Application Areas:

XN-PVM-500mL is suitable for:

Lithium-ion battery cathode and anode slurry mixing in laboratory and pilot environments
Mixing of powder materials and various ceramic compounds
R&D workflows requiring bubble-free, homogeneous slurry preparation

Maintenance:

Clean the equipment regularly with a soft cloth lightly moistened with alcohol
Lubricate moving parts periodically to ensure smooth operation
If the equipment is not used for an extended period, clean the moving surfaces and apply a protective anti-rust coating
Periodically inspect screws, nuts, pins, and other fasteners to prevent loosening

Safety Notes:

Do not place hands or other body parts near moving components or work-zone areas during operation
Operation should be performed by a single trained operator to avoid accidental injury
Disassembly should only be performed by qualified technicians

Specifications are provided for reference and may be adjusted to suit specific process requirements. Custom pot sizes and blade configurations are available on request.

Note: Specifications listed above are typical and for reference only. Actual mixing performance depends on the specific material formulation, viscosity, batch size, and process parameters. XN-PVM-500mL is supplied by Xnergy in our Coating equipment category and is commonly used together with our Cathode Materials, Anode Materials, Binders, and Current Collectors for complete lithium-ion battery electrode preparation workflows.
