The global shift towards electrification has propelled battery manufacturing to the forefront of industrial innovation. As demand for electric vehicles and energy storage systems skyrockets, battery manufacturers face unprecedented challenges in scaling production, enhancing energy density, and reducing costs. The industry must simultaneously meet stringent quality standards, improve efficiency, and minimize environmental impact to support the clean energy transition.
Advanced laser systems offer accuracy, consistency, and speed in critical battery manufacturing processes such as electrode cutting, tab welding, and case sealing. These high-tech tools enable manufacturers to achieve tight tolerances, reduce material loss and safety issues, and increase throughput. In turn, improved battery performance and range supports the sustainability objectives of green energy suppliers.
Laser cleaning enhances surface preparation for subsequent processes such as coating and welding, leading to improved adhesion, conductivity, and overall battery efficiency. Our technology’s ability to selectively remove layers without damaging underlying materials is particularly valuable in treating delicate battery components. By implementing our laser cleaning solutions, battery manufacturers can achieve higher production yields, extend battery lifespans, and maintain consistent quality across large-scale production runs. Our advanced laser cleaning systems offer a precision-controlled, non-contact method to remove contaminants, oxides, and residues from electrode surfaces, current collectors, and battery casings.
Laser marking systems provide high-contrast, durable markings on various battery materials, including metal casings, electrodes, and plastic components. These marks remain legible throughout the battery’s lifecycle, withstanding harsh environmental conditions and chemical exposure. Laser marking enables the creation of detailed QR codes, serial numbers, and 2D data matrices, essential for tracking individual cells and battery packs from production through recycling. This technology supports efficient inventory management, enhances quality assurance processes, and facilitates compliance with industry regulations.
Laser cutting leverages accuracy and consistency in processing a wide range of materials crucial to battery production, including electrode foils, separator membranes, and current collectors. The non-contact nature of laser cutting eliminates mechanical stress and deformation, preserving the integrity of delicate battery materials. This technology enables the creation of intricate patterns and precise geometries that optimize battery cell design, enhancing energy density and overall performance. Laser cutting’s ability to produce clean, burr-free edges minimizes the risk of short circuits and improves the uniformity of cell stacking.
Laser welding systems excel at joining diverse materials used in battery assemblies, such as copper, aluminum, and nickel-plated steel. This technology enables the creation of high-strength, low-resistance connections critical for optimal battery performance and longevity. The focused energy of laser welding minimizes heat-affected zones, reducing the risk of damage to sensitive battery components and ensuring the integrity of cell seals. The process’s ability to be finely controlled allows for consistent weld quality across thousands of connections in large-scale battery pack production. Laser welding also facilitates the joining of dissimilar metals, crucial for creating efficient interfaces between cells and power distribution systems.
