Welding is a vitally important family of joining techniques for EV battery systems. A large battery might need thousands of individual connections, joining the positive and negative terminals of cells together in combinations of parallel and series blocks to form modules and packs of the required voltage and capacity.
Of these, laser and ultrasonic welding processes dominate in EV battery manufacture – with laser welding the preferred solution for mass production – and continue to be improved and refined. “We see a lot of laser welding and ultrasonic wedge bonding for the larger packs,” says Boyle at Amada Weld Tech.
“In these situations, cooperative development and reliable relationships are of high value.” While there many kinds of welding, in EV battery applications the most common are resistance welding and laser welding, along with ultrasonic welding and wire bonding, and benefit from standardisation for mass production.
The purpose of this project is to conduct a comparative literature study of different welding techniques for welding batteries. The compared techniques are resistance spot welding, laser beam welding and ultrasonic welding. The performance was evaluated in terms of numerous factors such as production cost, degree of automation and weld quality.
The search was then performed using Uppsala University’s Library database and Google scholar which cover a wide range of articles and sources. Three methods for welding batteries were given in the template, being laser beam-, ultrasonic-, and resistance spot welding.
There are only so many ways to join materials together, and for battery applications – particularly where high currents and voltages and tough operating environments are encountered – welding beats alternatives such as soldering, conductive adhesives and mechanical fasteners.
