Electrode layer applied to copper foil and dried with laser technology: Researchers at Fraunhofer ILT have halved the energy required for drying in the production of lithium-ion batteries.
In light of this, researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT in Aachen have developed innovative laser-based technologies for producing lithium-ion batteries that, compared to those produced conventionally, can be charged more quickly and have a longer lifetime.
“Drying with the diode laser will reduce the energy required by up to 50 percent and the space needed for a drying system on an industrial scale by at least 60 percent,” Fink predicts. In addition to these benefits, the team at Fraunhofer ILT has been able to improve the power density and service lifetime of the lithium-ion batteries.

Laser processes for cutting, annealing, structuring, and printing of battery materials have a great potential in order to minimize the fabrication costs and to increase the electrochemical performance and operational lifetime of lithium-ion cells.
The research conducted at Fraunhofer ILT demonstrates that laser technology can be used as a digital production process to improve the quality of battery cells and significantly increase sustainability during manufacturing. “The next step is to scale up the technology from the prototype to an industrial production line,” says Matthias Trenn.
