Lithium battery production process 2: Pole baking-Pole winding-Core into shell

Introduction:

Lithium battery is a rechargeable battery that uses lithium metal or lithium compounds as the anode material of the battery. It is widely used in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, energy storage systems and other fields. Lithium batteries have changed our lives. Next, let's take a look at the Pole baking, Pole winding, and Core into shell in the preparation of lithium batteries.

Pole baking

The water content inside the lithium battery must be strictly controlled. Water has a great impact on the performance of the lithium battery, affecting indicators such as voltage, internal resistance, and self-discharge.

Excessive water content will lead to product scrapping, quality degradation, and even product explosion. Therefore, in multiple production processes of lithium batteries, the positive and negative poles, cells, and batteries must be vacuum baked multiple times to remove as much water as possible.

Pole winding

The slit pole piece is rolled into a layered core shape through the rotation of the winding needle. The normal wrapping method is diaphragm, positive electrode, diaphragm, negative electrode, and the coated diaphragm faces the positive electrode. Generally, the winding needle is prismatic, elliptical, or circular. Theoretically, the rounder the winding needle, the better the core fits, but the circular winding needle makes the pole ear fold more seriously.

During the winding process, CCD is used for detection and correction, and the distance between the positive and negative electrodes and the distance between the positive and negative electrodes and the diaphragm is detected.

Pole winding production process

The slit lithium battery positive and negative pole pieces, the negative pole pieces, and the separator are rolled together through the winding needle mechanism of the winding machine. The adjacent positive and negative pole pieces are isolated by the separator to avoid short circuit. After the winding is completed, the winding core is fixed with the tail tape to prevent it from spreading, and then it flows to the next process.

The most important thing in this process is to ensure that there is no physical contact short circuit between the positive and negative electrodes, and that the negative electrode can completely cover the positive electrode in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

Roll core into shell

Before the roll core is put into the shell, it is necessary to perform a Hi-Pot test voltage of 200~500V (to test whether there is a high-voltage short circuit) and vacuum treatment (to further control dust before putting it into the shell). The three major control points of lithium batteries are moisture, burrs, and dust.

Roll core into shell production process

After the previous process is completed, the lower pad is placed at the bottom of the roll core and the negative pole ear is bent so that the pole ear surface faces the roll core pinhole, and finally vertically inserted into the steel shell or aluminum shell. The cross-sectional area of ​​the roll core is less than the cross-sectional area of ​​the steel shell, and the shell entry rate is about 97%~98.5%, because the rebound value of the pole piece and the degree of liquid injection during the later period must be considered.
