Comau has introduced a partnership with Intecells to implement chilly plasma expertise for extra environment friendly manufacturing of battery electrodes. Intecells’ patented chilly plasma course of removes the necessity for conventional solvents and binders in electrode fabrication—streamlining manufacturing and doubtlessly chopping power utilization, funding prices and course of emissions in half.
Based on Comau, plasma-based options can immediately combine into present electrode manufacturing traces, considerably bettering cycle time, power effectivity, cell capability and cycle life. A brand new plasma-based course of is now in improvement that might additional simplify battery electrode manufacturing by decreasing the variety of manufacturing steps.
This collectively developed method covers all battery sizes and kinds, promising enhancements in each cell efficiency and security. Its principal objective is to ship economically viable plasma processes for scalable, high-volume manufacturing operations inside present battery manufacturing crops.
“Our collaboration with Intecells marks a pivotal step in redefining how battery cells are manufactured,” mentioned Gian Carlo Tronzano, Head of Battery Cell World Competence Heart and of P&E e-Mobility at Comau. “By combining Intecells’ disruptive expertise with Comau’s electrification expertise and experience, we’re working to ship a sensible path for integrating next-generation plasma processes into present manufacturing traces, beginning with the validation of chilly plasma expertise inside scalable manufacturing operations.”
“Our partnership with Comau offers Intecells the means wanted to speed up improvement, will revolutionize the way in which battery cells are manufactured and can help our prospects globally,” mentioned Xiaohong Gayden, founder and CEO of Intecells.
