3 Festo is well equipped for every level of automation

The production of goods nowadays mostly calls for high quantities at low production costs. In addition to this, variability and flexibility in manufacturing are also becoming increasingly important. This begs the question what level of automation is required in principle and which one is ultimately the right one for you?

In many cases it seems that a mix of different levels of automation is the best and most cost-effective option, with a spectrum ranging from manual elements to digitalisation.

The Festo portfolio offers seamless automation solutions, from a simple mechanical system to a fully automated and digitalised production line. Your requirements are our mission!

5 Requirements for cell production

Producing battery cells is a highly sensitive process where different parts of the system have different requirements. But all three areas, whether for work, transport or control, must meet the cleanliness requirements. Contaminants such as copper, zinc or electrically conductive or non-conductive particles reduce the quality of the batteries or render them unusable.

Copper- and zinc-free products are therefore frequently required and cleanroom products are recommended. Even our standard products often conform to the recommended cleanroom class, which is more cost-effective for you!

The areas

1 Working area

Here the automation technology is installed immediately above the battery cells and in close contact with them. This is where copper, zinc and particles >5 microns in particular pose a threat to the quality of the batteries.

Festo recommends using copper- and zinc-free products from 1 cleanroom class ISO 7. Contact our experts to discuss your requirements.

You will find more on this in the appendix.

3 Control area

The automation technology is installed under the process and is therefore not in contact with the battery cells.

Festo recommends using products from the cleanroom class ISO 7. Almost all standard products from Festo conform to cleanroom class ISO 7.

You will find further information in our Festo product catalogue. 3

6 2 Transport area

The automation technology is not installed directly above the battery cells and does not come into contact with them. To reduce the risk during battery production, unwanted particles with a diameter >5 microns should be avoided.

2 You can use all cylinders, pneumatic valves, pneumatic grippers and final control elements, all industrial robots, vacuum and compressed air systems, sensors, compressed air filters, compressed air regulators and pneumatic process valves from more than 80 products areas from Festo in cleanroom class ISO 7. Most of them are also suitable for use in classes 6 and 5, and many can even be used in class 4 environments. You can also find suitable customised solutions at Festo.

All our cleanroom products are classified into cleanroom classes in accordance with ISO 14664. It is best to discuss the exact require ments with our specialists, since particle emissions depend on the application in question. That is the quickest way for you to find a practical solution.

Festo recommends using components from cleanroom class ISO 6 or better.

You will find further information in our cleanroom catalogue. Moreover, products with a permissible pressure dew point of −80 °C should also be used.

7 Product features for components in secondary battery manufacturing

The production environment plays a key role in the manufacturing of lithium-ion cells. In particular, the humidity and possible contamination by interfering particles during the production process have a major influence on the quality and safety of the manufactured battery cell.

Festo therefore evaluates its product design in line with common market criteria and based on detailed requirements from customers. In order to meet these high process requirements, large parts of the production process are currently carried out in clean and dry rooms.

Festo products can be Of course there are always applications for which standard solutions used in environments with a dew point of −80 °C or even lower, since are not sufficient. For example, when the purity requirements are so none of the approximately 60 different greases used by Festo contains high that only a special solution is possible. We can also help in such water as an integral part of the formulation of the lubricant. These situations – a simple modification is often all that is needed. In such greases will therefore not desiccate in contact with even very dry air. cases, it is best to contact our experts directly. Moreover, none of Festo’s greases needs humidity or even liquid water for their lubrication properties.

13 Proven real-life applications

In battery production, high throughput and repetition accuracy are just as important as cost-effective solutions; this applies to many different process steps, from conveying, feeding and controlling aggressive media to precise parts handling and force-controlled pressing applications.

14 Festo meets these requirements with a wide range of standard pneumatics, electric automation and process automation. On the following pages you will find selected examples for individual process steps. Our experienced specialists will be happy to work out the right solution for your application together with you.

15 Slitting and secure fixing using web catchers

The purpose of slitting is to cut a wide strip of electrode foil into several narrower strips. This cutting process can be done thermally using laser cutting or carried out mechanically using a rolling cutter. To extend the cutter’s service life, a cooling liquid can be sprayed directly onto the blade during this process. If the machine stops during the slitting process, the electrode strips are secured using web catchers.

16 Vacuum generation

The dust particles produced during slitting are collected by a special vacuum-based dust extraction system. The vacuum is regulated by ball or butterfly valve assemblies.

Butterfly valve unit Ball valve unit Pulse valve VZWE KVZA KVZB

Compressed air preparation

To prepare, regulate and distribute compressed air for pneumatic components, Festo has solutions that optionally include energy saving functions to control and optimise the energy consumption of machines.

Spindle axis EGC-BS Servo motor Control system EMMT-AS CPX-E

Clamping

The electrode web can be clamped by pneumatic cylinders so that, if the machine stops during the slitting process, the electrode strips are secured using web catchers. Fast-switching valves MHE4 and cylinders DSBC with low friction properties are used to ensure a fast response time and speed. Fast-switching Standards-based solenoid valve cylinder DSBC MHE4

Dosing

To extend the cutter’s service life, a cooling liquid is sprayed directly onto the blade during this process. The liquid must be dispensed in a controlled way and in very small quantities. The dispense head VTOE from Festo is perfect for this task.

Dispense head VTOE

17 High-speed stacking

In the production of pouch cells a stacking process is used. In the stacking process, the electrode sheets are stacked in a repeating cycle of anode, separator, cathode, separator, etc. Festo offers complete electric handling systems for this particular process step, consisting of axis kinematics, motors and servo drives. All the components are perfectly matched.

18 Vacuum generation

To remove particles generated during operation, a low vacuum level is applied in the machine.

19 Safe and precise filling with electrolyte

Once the assembled battery has been inserted into a housing, the battery cell can be filled with electrolyte. The extreme ambient conditions during the filling process call for materials that are resistant to chemicals. Since electrolyte reacts with water and forms hydrofluoric acid, the ambient air must be very dry when filling the battery cells. To ensure this is the case, the air is continuously evacuated and removed from the machine cell.

20 Vacuum generation

To keep the environment clean during operation, a low vacuum level is applied in the machine. Air is evacuated from the battery cell while the electrolyte is being filled.

21 Sealing and precisely controlled degassing

During the formation process, gas builds up in the battery cell. This must be siphoned off from the already sealed battery cells – without losing electrolyte. This is done by piercing the battery cell using a hollow lance and evacuating the gas until electrolyte is being drawn off too. The system then switches over and blows the drawn off electrolyte back into the battery cell, while the remaining amount of gas is permanently removed.
