Description
Production process
- Collector foils are contacted with the cell tabs using an ultrasonic or laser welding process.
- Cell stack is positioned in pouch foil, which has previously been deep-drawn for this purpose
- Pouch cell is sealed gas-tight from three sides in an impulse or contact welding process
- One side of the cell is not finally sealed in order to be able to fill the cell with electrolyte in the next process step
Process parameters & requirements
- Deep drawing: up to 6 mm
- Ultrasonic welding with approx. 15 kHz - 40 kHz
- Packaging material: aluminium composite film (polyamide/aluminium/polypropylene)
Technology alternatives
- Book folding process: Foil with two deep drawn cavities is used for insertion into packaging; foil is folded like a book after the stack has been inserted and, then, sealed
Quality influences
- Reduction of thermal stress during contacting and sealing process
- Seal seam width
- Sealing temperature and pressure
Quality features
- Low contact resistance as well as low mechanical and thermal stress during the welding process
- Fatigue strength and tightness of the sealing seams
