Fraunhofer IPA and acp systems AG’s new battery cell production system arrives at a crucial time for the energy storage industry. The newly commissioned winding system for cylindrical battery cells, housed at the Center for Digitalized Battery Cell Manufacturing (ZDB), offers flexibility in both formats and design – a first worldwide capability that could reshape battery manufacturing. “At ZDB, we can cover all of the process steps involved in manufacturing a battery cell. The winding process is one of the core processes in cylindrical cell production, as the jelly roll is the centerpiece of the battery cell,” explains Julian Grimm, … Continue reading Fraunhofer’s New Battery Winding System Boosts EV Range Potential with Unique Format and Design Capabilities
