The line is robotized and automated so that various battery configurations can be assembled in different geometric blocks. Each individual battery can be picked up, sorted, checked and positioned according to its characteristics and polarity, and then anodic and cathodic welding of all the batteries in the chosen configuration is carried out using metal connectors. The plastic supports that close the block are also mounted on the line.

The system incorporates robots and artificial vision systems, as well as powerful control software.

The line has been installed at Batteries Prod (www.batteries-prod.fr), a leading French company in the design and manufacture of lithium-ion technology batteries and battery packs. Its new facility demonstrates its advanced technology and its significant growth in the market.
