DRY COATING FROM LAB TO FAB

How X.Cellify DC is paving the way for dry electrode coating to enter mass production.

 

Battery cell production is entering a new phase. Demand is rising, cost pressure is increasing, and manufacturers are looking for ways to further optimize their factories. One of the most promising levers is dry electrode coating. Instead of processing the active material as a solvent-based slurry and then drying it in long ovens, the material is formed as a dry film and laminated onto the current collector. At Dürr, R&D Manager Dr. Stefan Doose and his team are working on turning this principle into an industrial solution: X.Cellify DC.
