Technical University of Munich Optimizes Battery Production Processes
file-en/SIM_TechnicalDocument_TUMunich_Letter_Web.pdf
The Battery Production Group at the Institute for Machine Tools and Industrial Management at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) researches the production of innovative battery cells.
The core of the work is process development and the optimization of processes within battery production – from mixing, coating and calendering of the electrode materials to the formation of the final battery cells. All battery production steps are carried out in-house using the TUM’s electrode and battery production line.
TUM uses Altair EDEM software to simulate the calendering process for lithium-ion batteries.
