Thanks to its efficiency and precision, laser welding equipment has become an essential tool for lithium battery manufacturers. During the assembly and welding of lithium battery pack, a significant amount of nickel-plated copper or nickel-plated aluminum is used to connect battery cells. The primary method of connection is nickel-aluminum welding.
Laser welding in lithium-ion prismatic cell were tested under different load modes. Fast development of finite element models of laser welding was proposed. Deformation and failure behaviors of prismatic cell with laser welding were properly predicted.
However, laser welding between non-jellyroll structures in lithium-ion prismatic cells sometimes experiences early fracture under mechanical abuse loading. In this study, different mechanical tests were designed and carried out on three typical laser welded areas in lithium-ion prismatic cell.
In lithium battery production, ultrasonic welding is commonly used to connect battery cells to electrode foils, electrode cells to electrolyte films, and battery cells to battery casings and other components. It provides a highly accurate and stable weld, avoiding thermal damage and the introduction of impurities.
However, laser welding in battery packs is quite different from the laser welding inside battery cells. Laser welding outside the cells is usually of penetration welding while laser welding inside the cells is usually of seam welding.
Environmentally Friendly: Laser welding of lithium-ion batteries does not produce any harmful substances, making it very environmentally friendly. Additionally, as it does not require the use of solvents or other chemicals, it can also reduce waste production. 4.
