As electric vehicle manufacturing increases, the ability to scale output of battery cell and battery pack systems will be critical. But battery enclosures bring specific challenges, whether in materials and joining, quality control in integrating new components, electronics and software, and equipment for internal logistics. OEMs and battery manufacturers need to consider the automation opportunities, plant layout and parts identification processes to help increase output efficiently.
In this session, manufacturing experts from ABB and Zeiss detail strategies to scale battery pack production, including how to increase automation, standardisation and quality control.
