New laser drying technology to promote the development of lithium battery production

The German Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology (ILT) in conjunction with the Ceramic Technology and Systems (IKTS) has developed a new laser drying technology that can significantly reduce electricity costs and improve battery production.

The joint project "Battery electrode paste laser drying - DRYLAS" ​​focuses on the energy-efficient drying performance of electrode layers (also known as pastes, current-conducting foils for wet chemical processes in battery production) that have so far been used The furnace is continuously heated to remove the solvent contained in the slurry during the drying process.

Energy consumption by half

Cost-effective: lithium battery production by half the energy used to dry

Both organizations designed an online program and a fiber laser based drying module and passed the initial test at the Fraunhofer IKTS roll-to-roll mill. Slurry direct absorption of laser radiation to minimize the heat loss of the surrounding environment, this drying process uses only half of continuous heating furnace energy. Both agencies also indicated that fiber laser dry electrodes can be used to build a rational battery.

Fraunhofer ILT leverages its expertise in laser technology to put photonic technology and equipment operational into production, in particular the ProSolitBat project, funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research and coordinated by Schmidt Energy Systems. The project focuses on industrial continuous manufacturing of thin film technology lithium solid state batteries and the project is currently aiming to create a vacuum process called the roll-to-roll process chain that replaces the previously used ones and the project will last until 2017.
