Description

Production process

  • Separated electrode sheets are stacked in a repeating cycle of anode, separator, cathode, separator, etc.
  • Classic variant of stacking is the so-called Z-folding
  • Anode and cathode sheets are inserted alternately from the left and right into the z-shaped folded separator; separator is used as endless tape and cut off after the stacking process is completed
  • Finalized cell stack is fixed with adhesive tape
  • Sheets are transported and positioned by vacuum grippers
  • Depending on cell specification, the cell stack consists of a specific number of individual layers

Process parameters & requirements

  • Z-folding: Individual anode and cathode sheets are placed laterally in the Z-folded separator web
  • Stacking accuracy: ± 200 μm - 300 μm

Technology alternatives

  • Lamination process: The individual electrode and separator sheets are laminated onto each other in a continuous process and are then usually pressed together by a heat press.
  • Pocket Stacking: The cathode sheets are placed in a separator pocket. Afterwards cathode and anode sheets are stacked alternately.

Quality influences

  • Exact positioning of individual sheets as central quality criterion.
  • Position detection and alignment of sheets of different sizes with a vacuum gripper
  • Mechanical pre-tensioning of the separator

Quality features

  • Positioning accuracy of the anode and cathode sheets
  • Damage-free electrode surfaces and edges
  • Avoidance of electrostatic charging
