Employees need to be well-versed not only in the operational aspects of production equipment but also in the underlying principles of battery technology. This dual approach ensures that workers can effectively troubleshoot and optimize processes, leading to higher efficiency and quality in production.
Nevertheless, mixing and coating may be the processes of highest importance for quality. In general terms: the key to profitable battery cell produc- tion is to optimize throughput (the number of cells produced per unit of time) and yield (the percentage of cells without defects).
Key challenges include the complexity of both the product and process, the novelty of battery production in regions like Europe and the U.S., the scale and automation level of facilities, the availability of skilled workers. Additionally, cultural, and linguistic barriers can further complicate operations.
However, it is anticipated that the battery cell production industry in Europe will be short of approximately 100,000 skilled workers by the year of 2030. The specific type of work which includes working in cleanrooms and drying rooms requires special skills and qualifications, making the start-up phase even more challenging.
The production steps that are crucial for battery cell quality or where defects are most likely to occur with a corresponding impact are the mixing, the coating as well as the separating and folding pro- cesses. In mixing and coating, the basic electrode is produced which is later processed and assembled to a battery cell.
In summary, the process of ramping-up battery cell production from laboratory to mass production involves several complex challenges, including equipment scaling and process parameter tuning. The level of automation and the interdependencies of the various process parameters add to the overall complexity.
