Batteries for electric automobiles and storage devices for energy produced from wind and the sun are more than just “larger versions of laptop batteries”. Long service life and high cyclic stability are just as important as low power dissipation and handling safety – in cold and hot conditions alike. When it comes to mobile applications, high energy density and crash safety are also important. However, one of the greatest challenges is lowering production costs. This is only possible using highly integrated, automated mass production and interaction between producers, suppliers, machine manufacturers and researchers. At this special show, productronica will demonstrate all of the processing steps that it takes to produce a battery cell, from coating the electrode material to the finished module. The show will feature machines, processes, automation technology, intermediate products and final products – as well as a “virtual factory” from RWTH Aachen, which promises to be a special highlight. Moderated by experts, the virtual factory will allow visitors to interactively put together a battery factory and develop cost scenarios. As part of this highlight topic, committed companies and institutes will present the latest information about markets, technologies and strategies that pertain to battery production at the Innovation Forum.
