Increasing productivity in battery cell manufacturing

As a production manager, it is your job to maximize throughput and to ensure that the production line operates at maximum efficiency. This requires a smooth production process and the ability to respond quickly to changes and malfunctions. Our digital solutions feature advanced technology that allows you to increase unit quantities by identifying hidden optimization potential while also safeguarding the quality of the battery cells produced, e.g., by integrating digital twins and real-time analysis.

Innovative solutions from Fraunhofer that have helped our customers to overcome their challenges:

• Intelligent identification of process parameters for mixing processes
  Use of trained AI models for automatic identification of the optimal process parameters in order to achieve the specified electrode paste properties without preliminary testing and to increase efficiency of the mixing process.
  
  
• Single-segment tracing of electrodes in coating processes
  Integration of traceability without markings that does not influence the cell chemicals of the electrodes and enables quality-related process parameters to be monitored.
  
  
• Digital twin for production systems
  Implementation of a digital twin for real-time monitoring and adjustment of process parameters based on the example of the winding system at Fraunhofer IPA, with the aim of improving efficiency and process quality (and in particular, to avoid electrode overhang for the manufactured rolls).

We can work with you to improve your production processes through digitalization and create a future where you can achieve maximum efficiency and throughput. Our custom digital solutions offer you the support you need to achieve your production goals and enjoy success in a highly competitive market. Discover the potential of our technologies and take a step toward a digitalized production process.
