How Can We Help?
Whether you need a laser system with custom specifications or simply want to learn more about laser processing, an IPG e-mobility expert is ready to help you find your laser solution.
Learn how we combine laser expertise with battery welding know-how to build laser solutions for global EV and battery manufacturers.
Get the GuideFiber lasers are an excellent choice for welding common battery materials including copper, aluminum, nickel, stainless steel, nickel-plated steel, and nickel-plated copper.
The system accommodates modules up to 1 x 1 m as heavy as 450 kg, with options for manual part load or conveyor pass-through with automated entry and exit doors. Flexible system architecture accommodates rapidly evolving battery design and material selections.
Matching the laser and beam delivery to the battery welding application is critical for increasing productivity and part quality. As the world leader in laser solutions for e-mobility applications, IPG offers a wide range of fiber laser sources and beam delivery optimized for battery welding.
Our application engineers, developers, and scientists are available across dozens of global state-of-the-art IPG application centers to help with everything from process development and optimization to full scale production.
Getting started is easy — send us a sample for evaluation or just tell us about your project and we'll take it from there.
Optional real-time weld measurement directly measures every weld as it is made to enable 100% weld quality assurance. This patented in-process weld monitoring technology eliminates the need for time-consuming and destructive post weld testing and tracks weld dimension data to warn for process drift.
Full verification of penetration into the cell casing guards against catastrophic part failures and product recalls.
