Brass (CuZn37) test samples are used for the quantitative comparison of the welding techniques, as this metal can be processed by all three welding techniques. At the end of the presented work, the suitability of resistance spot, ultrasonic and laser beam welding for connecting battery cells is evaluated.
Battery cells are most often put into modules or packs when produced for electrically driven vehicles. The variable of greatest influence when welding battery packs is the contact resistance between the cell and the connection tab. It is crucial to minimize this variable as much as possible to prevent energy loss in the form of heat generation.
The findings are applicable to all kinds of battery cell casings. Additionally, the three welding techniques are compared quantitatively in terms of ultimate tensile strength, heat input into a battery cell caused by the welding process, and electrical contact resistance.
The search was then performed using Uppsala University’s Library database and Google scholar which cover a wide range of articles and sources. Three methods for welding batteries were given in the template, being laser beam-, ultrasonic-, and resistance spot welding.
UWB is also suitable for creating electrical connections between cylindrical battery cells. Although proper fixation of the cell is paramount for the welding, as any significant lateral movement will reduce the vibration amplitude and consequently diminish the power of the welding process.
Parameter control also allows LBW to adapt to the thickness of the material tabs and can create thin or thick weld nuggets. In battery cell welding it is important to create thin welds due to the relatively thin battery cases and the risk of the weld penetrating the case and thus damaging the core.
New welding techniques and laser sources for battery welding
We present solutions for battery welding using pulsed green lasers and nanosecond pulsed IR lasers. Green laser improved process stability and spatter formation between 0.1-0.8 mm penetration depth could be avoided. Nanosecond welding process differs from normal keyhole welding and formation of intermetallic phases can be suppressed. …
