“Printing custom patterned batteries using a dry process that starts with raw material and concludes with a fully functional high-performance battery is a breakthrough that has the potential to transform how batteries of the future are manufactured for all industries.
New manufacturing concepts allow higher active material loads and greater freedom in electrode design. Completely printed batteries help on the one hand to break free from the limitations of current manufacturing technology and on the other hand to reduce the use of solvents and subsequent drying processes.
The printed battery as a product is fully customisable. Printing technology in principle offers great product design freedom. Hence, there are no limits in sizing the battery to your needs. However, the size of the battery has an impact on the energy and power density.
The screen printing process represents one possibility for the production of thick electrode layers. Depending on the type of electrode to be produced with the corresponding electrode material and current collector substrate, the printing process parameters are optimized at Fraunhofer IFAM.
Printing technology in principle offers great product design freedom. Hence, there are no limits in sizing the battery to your needs. However, the size of the battery has an impact on the energy and power density. That is, what we determine together with our project partners in the design process, to find best solution possible.
