6 FAQs about [Key parameters of battery cell welding technology]
Why do battery cells need to be welded?
Battery cells are most often put into modules or packs when produced for electrically driven vehicles. The variable of greatest influence when welding battery packs is the contact resistance between the cell and the connection tab. It is crucial to minimize this variable as much as possible to prevent energy loss in the form of heat generation.
How do I choose the right battery pack welding technology?
Selecting the appropriate battery pack welding technology to weld battery tabs involves many considerations, including materials to be joined, joint geometry, weld access, cycle time and budget, as well as manufacturing flow and production requirements. Fiber laser welding
Which welding techniques can be used for connecting battery cells?
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.
Why is parameter control important in battery cell welding?
Parameter control also allows LBW to adapt to the thickness of the material tabs and can create thin or thick weld nuggets. In battery cell welding it is important to create thin welds due to the relatively thin battery cases and the risk of the weld penetrating the case and thus damaging the core.
How does resistance welding affect a battery cell?
4.1.2 Effect on the battery cell Small-scale resistance welding is often the preferred method for joining Li–ion batteries into battery packs. This process ensures strong joints with an almost complete elimination of the heat impact on the joined workpieces during a short time.
Can a battery cell casing be welded?
The findings are applicable to all kinds of battery cell casings. Additionally, the three welding techniques are compared quantitatively in terms of ultimate tensile strength, heat input into a battery cell caused by the welding process, and electrical contact resistance.
