Translated into overall cost savings for the modelled battery cell production plant, the seven investigated use cases land in a range of 0.3-0.8%. Virtual commissioning, traceability, material flow simulation, and predictive quality appear as the most potent, offering an approximate 0.7-0.8% reduction potential.
A similar challenge faces environments. implemented in the LIB cell manufacturing plants. In this tion, pursuing a more ecient battery manufacturing process. and management of data. In fact, the integration of these intel- data analysis methods, such as ML and data mining. Accord- using powerful algorithms and computing systems.
Furthermore, there are plenty of commercial digital solutions that support the day-to-day workflow of a company but are not directly related to the specifics of battery cell production. Some examples are applications or software suites for enterprise, project, document or risk management.
In the field of battery cell manufacturing process, this consists of sequential steps with many interdependencies. A large quantity of data reflecting both the processes and equipment must be collected to guarantee the monitoring of the battery cells, ensuring required quality control, sustainability and cost efficiency.
As the global battery cell manufacturing industry is growing to reach the terawatt-hour scale in this decade, even the smallest improvement of resource efficiency and sustainability will make an impact. The insights presented in this study clearly demonstrate that this is possible with the help of digitalization.
