Description

Production process

  • Degassing is used to press out gas that evolved into dead spaces (i.e., gas bag) during the first charging process
  • Gas bag is pierced in a vacuum chamber and the escaping gases are sucked off
  • Gas bag is disposed and extracted gases are post-treated before entering the exhaust system
  • Final sealing and folding of cell under vacuum after gas bag removal

Process parameters & requirements

  • Folding and gluing of sealing seams to increase volumetric energy density
  • Damage-free folding of the edges
  • Seam widths
  • Sealing against moisture and oxygen

Technology alternatives

  • Depending on cell size, the gas bag is potentially not separated after degassing

Quality influences

  • Pressing of the cells for degassing
  • Sealing and folding technology
  • Suction of gases under vacuum and in a dry atmosphere

Quality features

  • Residual gas inside the cell
  • Damage-free cell handling, depending on characteristics of the gas bubbles
