Laser marking can create markings on cells, electrodes, cases, battery modules and packs for individual serial data encoded in machine-readable data matrix codes. Ask an expert Laser Marking Benefits.
Laser marking is a fast, precise, and consistent process that creates permanent markings for traceability. Serial numbers, data matrix codes, and other types of identifiers can be etched within less than 100 milliseconds.
How can laser technology help the battery industry?
Industrial Laser Solutions for the Battery Industry The world is moving away from fossil fuel dependency, causing a rapid rise in the demand for lithium-ion batteries. Laser technology is a pillar in this transition, helping the battery industry improve its cost-effectiveness, production cycle times, and battery performance.
Laser cleaning is a highly precise, consistent, and fast process that removes contaminants from metal surfaces, such as electrolytes, dust, oils, and oxides, while leaving the battery components intact. Laser texturing is a key technology for battery structural resistance and cooling systems.
Are laser marking systems safe to use?
Laser marking systems can pose risks. To minimize these risks, consider the following safety guidelines: Direct exposure to the laser beam can cause severe burns and eye damage. Ensure that you are wearing laser safety goggles when working in the vicinity of laser equipment.
Why do cell casings need laser marking?
Cell casings benefit from laser marking for quality control and to reduce the size of any recall. With its high flexibility, precision, and speed, laser welding is an increasingly popular and proven method in the battery industry, especially for the most recent processes.
Why do cell batteries need to be marked on the fly?
Electrodes inside cylindrical cell batteries can be marked on the fly on conveyors to validate each step of the production process. Cell casings benefit from laser marking for quality control and to reduce the size of any recall.
