Improve product quality and optimize production of anode, cathode, and electrolyte EV battery component manufacturing.
Battery component manufacturers must not only deliver consistent overall quality – they must deliver it throughout the manufacturing process. The continuity of the manufacturing process means errors or impurities at an early stage will accumulate, resulting in much larger consequences further down the production line. Quality needs to be monitored at every stage – from raw materials through to cell assembly – to maintain production efficiency and minimize waste. Emerson advanced measurement solutions ensure accurate batch control for consistent product quality.

Frequently Asked Questions about EV Battery Component Manufacturing
Critical raw materials used in manufacturing Li-ion batteries (LIBs) include lithium, graphite, cobalt, and manganese. As electric vehicle deployments increase, Lithium EV battery production for vehicles is becoming an increasingly important source of demand.
Lithium battery component (or battery cell) manufacturing is done in sets of electrodes and then assembled into battery cells. To produce electricity, lithium EV batteries shuttle lithium ions internally from one layer, called the anode, to another, the cathode. The two are separated by yet another layer, the electrolyte.
Every generation of battery design – cylindrical, prismatic, polymer pouch, and now, solid state - challenges technical limits and demands more from battery assembly technology. Ultrasonic welding solutions reliably bond the thinner, more delicate metals and advanced hybrid films needed to build more energy-dense batteries.
Typical cathode materials, such as NCA and NMC, are produced through co-precipitation of transition-metal hydroxide precursor materials, followed by calcination (lithiation and oxidation) with a lithium compound.
Cathode active materials are composed of lithium and metal. Active materials have different characteristics depending on type and ratio of metals. For example, Ni (Nickel) has high capacity, Mn (Manganese) and Co (Cobalt) have high safety and Al (Aluminum) increases power of a battery.
The anode (or negative electrode) in a lithium-ion battery is typically made up of graphite, coated in copper foil. Graphite is a crystalline solid with a black/grey color and a metallic sheen. Due to its electronic structure, it is highly conductive and can reach 25,000 S/cm2 in the plane of a single crystal.
