The disassembly of lithium-ion battery systems from automotive applications is a complex and therefore time and cost consuming process due to a wide variety of the battery designs, flexible components like cables, and potential dangers caused by high voltage and the chemicals contained in the battery cells.
Disassembly tests were executed with the demonstrator. Findings proved that semi-automated disassembly of battery systems is feasible. They have developed a concept, i.e., a workstation for more flexibility, productivity, and safety in the disassembly of LIBs, at the module level.
The laboratory experience showed that the complete disassembly of a battery cell took 20 min . A summary regarding this category of publications can be found in Table 5. The analysis of the above-mentioned publications thereby highlights the fundamental challenges that exist in automated disassembly of LIBs.
Kay et al. presented the process of battery disassembly using industrial robots under the supervision of human workers. Experiments were performed on the disassembly of dummy modules and dummy cells, which demonstrated that the process time required for automated opening of the modules and cells could be reduced by 50%.
Battery disassembly requires removing the plastic casing: automatizing partial disassembly (e.g., casing removal and cells recovery from battery packs) gave positive costs-benefits trade-off (Alfaro-Algaba and Ramirez, 2020); using a hybrid workstation (manually operated) resulted as best option for safety and costs (Tan et al., 2021). ... ...
However, the cell disassembly process was not the main subject in this research. The hard-casing battery cells were cut, and the ESC was removed in an automated process . In another case, an automated cutting of the casing was carried out by a custom device, and ESC was manually removed .
