Roll-to-roll laser cutting equipment for battery electrodes that complements the BATEK pilot plant for the development of Gen 3 and Gen 4 batteries.
The system integrates a versatile laser cutting station (continuous or pulsed mode) capable of operating over a 35 × 35 cm area, a roll-to-roll module that feeds the electrode directly from the coating machine to optimize processing time and minimize material waste, and a gas and particle extraction and filtration system that prevents contamination of the electrodes and cells.
It enables the study and optimization of cutting processes for different electrode formats under conditions representative of industrial production.
