Advanced Automated Production Systems
Development and validation of high speed in-line spot weld process monitoring that utilizes AI without loss of accuracy while ensuring that weld cap geometry is not impacting quality. Development and Validation of a carried ultrasonic inspection tool to allow for automatic verification of spot weld quality that is more accurate and faster than human measurement
Development and Validation of a modular high speed automation station for end of line electrical testing of prismatic battery cells. Allowing the creation of a single test stand design to accommodate different quantities, orientations and sizes of different prismatic battery cells. One design can be re-used to reduce time to market, decrease cost, and increase value for end users.
Traditional air pressure based leak test methods are not capable of reliably measuring the leak rates of battery structures to the leak rates required. Using a tracer gas based system instead of air pressure is a method that removes temperature a barometric pressure effects. While Hard Vac Helium Tracer Gas leak testing is a well studied leak test technology, it’s application to battery structures is new, and its application in a high volume automotive production system is new and novel. Development of critical aspects, such as the sealing strategy, motion components, and sensing, while bei
A major challenge faced by automotive manufacturers in the highly evolving Electric Vehicle market, is the construction, selling/financing and the life management of high capacity and efficiency battery packs. The battery pack is by far the most critical component of any EV; as it bears the highest cost and is responsible for the primary function of the vehicle. As a result, ensuring the quality and durability of the battery pack is of paramount importance to the vehicle engineers. Existing technologies for Washing (Remove manufacturing contaminants before final assembly) and leak testing
A major challenge faced by automotive manufacturers in the highly evolving Electric Vehicle market, is the construction, selling/financing and the life management of high capacity and efficiency battery packs & Trays. The battery pack is by far the most critical component of any EV; any other EV component being much lighter, simpler and cheaper than its internal combustion match. As a result, with the elimination of EV Government incentives, the OEMs want to fully outsource them to Tier-Ones, leaving the OEM the task to quickly adapt to the market needs and changes. So a new type of ultra-fle
Battery Cells need to be tested and validated before being installed into a battery pack. Electrical End of Line Testing includes, OCV, IV, DCIR, ACIR, and EIS tests. While the testing is well studied in laboratory settings, there is high technical uncertainty on it's application to high volume automotive production systems. The intent of this project is to establish the baseline parameters for cycle time, contact pressure, electrical noise, and accuracy required to meet specifications. From that information, the high volume production system can be designed and manufactured.
