ANODE & CATHODE SLITTING

in EV Batteries

PROBLEM

The process of designing, constructing, and assembling the components of an EV battery needs to be extremely detailed. The precise cutting and slitting of anodes and cathodes is a crucial step in battery production to build a high-performance and reliable battery. Additionally, anode and cathode slitting oftentimes creates a bottleneck for fast and efficient production. Long lead times and poor edge control when cutting and slitting anodes and cathodes are common challenges seen in the market and can lead to inconsistencies in the sizes and shapes of the electrodes. This in turn can affect the performance and lifespan of the battery, create inefficient charging, and even result in severe motor failure. 

SOLUTION

Slitting and cutting of anodes and cathodes must be extremely precise and to the manufacturer’s specifications. Improving edge control when cutting and slitting requires careful attention to the cutting process and the use of appropriate equipment and techniques to ensure there are no variances. Long lead times are often experienced due to the lack of infrastructure, demonstrating how imperative it is to have the specialized equipment that enables rapid prototyping.
