The global demand for Li-ion batteries is expected to soar

The growth in demand for Li-ion batteries also brings intense competition and various challenges for manufacturers. From scaling up your battery production line, reducing scrap rates, optimizing production quality and throughput, to working out how to accommodate future innovations, and ensuring sustainability.

To overcome these challenges, forward-thinking manufacturers are embracing digital transformation initiatives. Many companies are already benefiting from Smart Manufacturing solutions, with 70% of them implementing such strategies. By utilizing big data analytics to improve quality control in cell finishing, manufacturers can achieve up to a 15% reduction in cell production costs.

Ensure the security of your battery manufacturing intellectual property

To streamline production and ensure efficiency, you need to build collaboration and establish a digital information-sharing framework among suppliers and design teams.

By planning and validating production processes in the early stages, potential operational errors can be identified and corrected virtually, reducing costly delays. Using virtual models helps determine optimal line configurations, validating process plans and logistics, and implementing standardized change procedures while safeguarding manufacturing intellectual property. The benefits include saving time during production ramp-up, avoiding errors through controlled change procedures, and ensuring the security of valuable manufacturing IP.
