We found that the the spot welding which is one of the very vital process carried in the manufacturing of lithium ion battery packs is performed manually in most of the small scale Li-ion battery pack manufacturing industries.
In conclusion, the automation of spot welding between lithium-ion battery cells and sheet metal connectors using an Arduino microcontroller has been successfully implemented. The machine was designed to move in three degrees of freedom to accurately place the welding in the desired location.
Brass (CuZn37) test samples are used for the quantitative comparison of the welding techniques, as this metal can be processed by all three welding techniques. At the end of the presented work, the suitability of resistance spot, ultrasonic and laser beam welding for connecting battery cells is evaluated.
Since the lithium-ion battery system is composed of many unit cells, modules, etc., it involves a lot of battery welding technology. Common battery welding technologys are: ultrasonic welding, resistance spot welding, laser welding, pulse TIG welding.
Common battery welding technologys are: ultrasonic welding, resistance spot welding, laser welding, pulse TIG welding. This post combines the application results of the above battery welding technologies in lithium-ion battery systems, and explores the influencing factors. Ultrasonic welding is a solid state battery welding process.
UWB is also suitable for creating electrical connections between cylindrical battery cells. Although proper fixation of the cell is paramount for the welding, as any significant lateral movement will reduce the vibration amplitude and consequently diminish the power of the welding process.
