Innovation arises from the combination of customer and market knowledge, technology and a culture of collaboration and entrepreneurship.

At New Battery World, 3M shows how to systematically ‘create’ innovations.

Battery analytics
Optimised analysis methods along the life cycle of lithium-ion batteries support quality improvements.
 

Asahi Kasei achieved a breakthrough in electrolyte research a few months ago. 
We assume that the new electrolyte will become an important factor in the performance and utilisation of new batteries.
The response from the industry has been outstanding - talks on licensing are ongoing.
The electrolyte will also be the subject of a presentation at New Battery World.

Thermal management

The thermal management of the lithium-ion battery is crucial to the success of electromobility. TIM materials increase safety and efficiency in continuous operation.

Battery production 4.0 
More flexible, transparent and intelligent battery production requires open interfaces for optimum networking. At New Battery World, Bosch Rexroth is showcasing Production 4.0 across the entire value stream from the electrode to end-of-line testing of the pack.

Innovative mixing processes

Mixing processes that require less energy and reduce the reject rate in electrode paste production.

Bühler presents fully continuous mixing solutions with inline quality control at New Battery World

Data integration & battery production

Standardisation, scalability and speed through the integration of data across the entire battery production chain.

Peter Sorowka, CEO of Cybus, will explain how a leading cell manufacturer is enabling the integration and scaling of operations across three gigafactories with a new data integration approach. 

Battery Handling Innovations
Customised automation for battery production - from individual battery cells to complete battery systems – secures efficiency, quality and reliability.
At New Battery World, Güdel presents its handling solutions for battery production systems, which are based on over 70 years of experience in industrial automation.

Next Step in CELL-TO-PACK Efficiency 

Handtmann and Pulsetrain have succeeded in increasing the service life of lithium-ion batteries by 60% and making battery systems even more efficient with MLIT (multi-level inverter technology).

De-bonding
Further developments in lithium-ion batteries are crucial to the success of electromobility. Debonding technologies enable more efficient recycling

…we also talk about this at the New Battery World Special

Cell-To-Pack innovations
The ‘new class’ at BMW comes with round cells. Round cells are optimally inserted into battery modules with a new pneumatically controlled magnet system. 
Schunk presents innovative round cell gripper technology at the New Batterx World.

No Thermal Runaways

Fire protection analyses are of great importance in the production processes of lithium-ion cells. At New Battery World, TÜV SÜD will show how thermal runaways can be significantly reduced.
