EL-CELL

We Advance Battery Research.
EL-CELL develops laboratory equipment for research of energy storage systems, with particular focus on lithium-ion technology and supercapacitors.
We are distinguished by our expertise in electrochemistry and mechanical engineering as well as our eager ambition to develop innovative products. We strongly believe that reliable and simple 3-electrode measurements are the most efficient way to develop new battery materials. This approach proves to be particularly useful in our PAT (Parallel Testing) series, a modular test cell system with the highest standards of efficiency and ease of use. In addition, we offer a variety of in-situ test cells as well as tools for manufacturing battery components in the laboratory. Our complete range of services is rounded out with our own potentiostats, which are precisely tailored to the special requirements of battery research. This allows us to provide you with the complete set-up from a single source to carry out electrochemical experiments.

Safion GmbH

Safion entwickelt Batteriediagnoselösungen für Kunden entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette – von Qualitätsprüfung über Lebensdauerprognose und Zustandsbewertung bis zu Second-Life-Tests, um stets den Betrieb und die Sicherheit von Batterien zu optimieren. Mit dem Messverfahren wird das Fundament für eine schnelle, kosten- und ressourcensparende technologische Leistungssteigerungen in der Batterieverwendung gelegt. In Sekundenschnelle kann die Real-Time-EIS-Methode von Safion, mit einer überlagerten Anregung, von bis zu 32 Impedanzpunkte gleichzeitig messen. Auf diese Weise wird die Messzeit von Minuten von, wie bei herkömmlichen Verfahren, auf Sekunden reduziert.

PEC has been a frontrunner in the delivery of turnkey automated cell finishing lines for the growing number of electrical vehicle programs worldwide. These cell finishing lines cover all operations from right after the electrolyte filling, such as soaking, formation, degassing, ageing, grading and sorting and supply the pack assembly with a steady flow of completely finished and sorted cells. PEC offers standard solutions for pouch, prismatic and cylindrical cells.

C3 Prozess- und Analysentechnik GmbH

C3 Prozess- und Analysentechnik GmbH offers measurement and laboratory technology around the battery application area. Gamry Instruments‘ systems (electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry) are used to characterize batteries and components in R&D and QC. Software packages such as EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) are used here. Measuring cells and other accessories complete the Echemistry program. THINKY’s highly efficient centrifugal mixers enable bubble-free production of e.g. electrode pastes. The thermal conductivity measurement systems from Hot Disk AB can be used to characterize both pure materials and composite materials with regard to their thermophysical properties for thermal management.

Pfeiffer Vacuum

Vacuum Technology and Vacuum Pumps from the leader
For 130 years, the name Pfeiffer Vacuum has served as a guarantee for advanced vacuum technology, high quality vacuum solutions and first-class service. We offer a wide range of process pumps for vacuum drying and electrolyte filling in R&D and Industry environments with outstanding performances for short cycle times and efficiency. With our leak detectors, we are able to leak test battery components, all cell types, battery modules and packs as well as cooling units. Furthermore, baseline investigations in the fields of humidity measurement, permeation and end-of-line testing are possible.
Li-ion batteries have become an integral part of our everyday life. They are used in mobile devices such as laptops, smartphones and other wearables. Batteries are even powering our cars. But how are these compact power storage devices manufactured and what does it all have to do with vacuum and leak detection?
The application of vacuum is required at various stages of production in the manufacture of Li-ion batteries: Vacuum is required during the mixing process of the so-called slurry, which is applied to the battery cell electrodes. The coil drying and electrolyte filling also takes place under vacuum.
In general, the pumps generate the vacuum which is needed for the different production processes. The pumps have to have a high resistance to poisonous and toxic fumes in drying, filling and formation processes. Pfeiffer Vacuum pumps generally are known to be robust and efficient to ensure sustainable production of Li-ion batteries.

Carl Zeiss Microscopy Deutschland GmbH

ZEISS eMobility Solutions – From energy to eMotion
Die zunehmende Nachfrage nach Elektrofahrzeugen führt zu einem Umdenken in der Automobilindustrie, da sich der Aufbau eines elektrischen Antriebsstrangs deutlich von dem eines Fahrzeugs mit Verbrennungsmotor unterscheidet. Dieser Wandel hat zudem enorme Auswirkungen auf die Produktion sowie auf die Montage der Komponenten und stellt durch erhöhte Präzisionsansprüche neue Herausforderungen an den Qualitätssicherungsprozess.
ZEISS eMobility Solutions vereint eine Auswahl an Produkten aus dem ZEISS Portfolio und bietet damit einzigartige gesamtheitliche mess- und prüftechnische Lösungen für alle Komponenten der E-Mobilität: Von der Batterie, über die Leistungselektronik, hin zu E-Motor und Getriebe – From energy to eMotion.
