Documenting battery production equipment, companies, and technology.
From mixing to logistics, covering equipment makers and technology trends across the entire battery production process.
PROCESS INDEX
MIXERMixerUniformly blends active material, binder, and solvent into electrode slurry. Slurry viscosity and dispersion uniformity determine downstream coating quality.
ELECTRODEElectrodeCoats, dries, presses, and slits slurry onto current collectors to complete cathode and anode sheets. Coating-thickness uniformity and press density govern cell performance.
ASSEMBLYAssemblyStacks or winds cathode, separator, and anode, inserts the stack into a case, and injects electrolyte to complete the cell.
FORMATIONFormationApplies the initial charge/discharge to the assembled cell to form the SEI layer and activate cell performance, including aging and grading inspection.
LOGISTICSLogisticsAutomated logistics spanning raw-material intake, inter-process transfer, and finished-cell packing and shipment. Preventing physical cell damage and ensuring traceability are the core requirements.
TRENDSTrendsTracks the latest technology trends in battery production equipment, competitor patent disclosures, GWh-scale line expansions, and the mechanical design challenges behind them.
