Improving Battery Cell Cycle Measurement to Reduce Gigafactory Costs
Live Date: June 14, 2023
Duration: 60 minutes
Quality and process engineers know that as battery gigafactories increase cell production, careful measurement and quality control is critical. But capturing an accurate reading of a cell’s cycle life is challenging because not every cell can be measured, so sampling is required. However, cell sample size poses added costs including capital investment, operational costs, energy usage, and lead time.
Attend this webinar to learn how one cell producer overcomes these challenges with a novel measurement approach. Factors covered will include costs, floor space, safety, energy consumption, and data analysis — plus opportunities for additional efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
