Readco Kurimoto brought its continuous processing technology to the LFP Battery Tech 2026 conference in Detroit this summer, where battery manufacturers face a persistent problem: mixing thick electrode slurries evenly at scale. High-viscosity materials resist flow, and even small inconsistencies in slurry viscosity can degrade downstream performance. The company demonstrated equipment built for that specific bottleneck.
“Our innovative approach focuses on energy efficiency and automation in industrial mixing equipment technology,” the company said in a statement. The Pennsylvania-based manufacturer, backed by Japan’s Kurimoto Ltd., also offers rental options for short-term projects and ongoing maintenance. For battery makers, that lowers the risk of testing new mixing systems before committing to a purchase.
Readco Kurimoto designs continuous mixers for industries from food ingredients to advanced battery materials. Its appearance at the July 27-28 conference targeted one of the hardest problems in LFP production: achieving uniform blending of electrode slurries before they reach the coating line.
