7 Reasons Why You Should Rely on NETZSCH for Lithium Battery Production

1. Precise dosing and conveying in lithium battery production

In lithium battery production, precise dosing and conveying are crucial to ensure the highest quality and performance of batteries. We offer specialised solutions ensuring consistent and controlled dosing of electrode pastes and electrolyte slurries. Our NEMO® progressing cavity pumps and PERIPRO® peristaltic pumps are designed to deliver materials with the highest accuracy and reproducibility. This contributes to consistency in production and improves the efficiency and reliability of the entire manufacturing process. Using our pump technology, you can ensure your lithium batteries meet the highest quality standards while minimising production costs.

2. Safe handling of highly viscous and abrasive media

Safe handling of highly viscous, abrasive and sometimes toxic media is key in lithium battery production. The pumped products are often incredibly challenging to handle and place high demands on the technology used. With the TORNADO® rotary lobe pumps and the NEMO® progressing cavity pumps, NETZSCH offers customised solutions to these challenges. Our pumps are specially designed to meet the challenges of pumping viscous, solids-laden media and guarantee you continuous and reliable performance. We recently added a hermetically sealed pump to our portfolio: The NEMO® MY magnetically coupled pump. This prevents aggressive, toxic or abrasive liquids and vapours from escaping. The leak-free pump guarantees maximum safety for your employees and the system.

3. Chemically resistant pumps for aggressive electrolytes

Aggressive electrolytes are an essential component in lithium battery production. However, they highly demand the pumps and systems' chemical resistance. With the PERIPRO® peristaltic pump, we offer you the ideal solution for this challenge. Our peristaltic pumps are made from materials resistant to corrosive and chemically aggressive substances. This ensures reliable and safe dosing of electrolytes without material damage or loss of performance. The chemical resistance of these pumps contributes to the longevity of your system and the safety and efficiency of the entire production process. You will also benefit from lower maintenance costs compared to other technologies and a stable production environment, resulting in improved lithium battery quality.

4. Powerful & robust pumps for lithium battery production

In lithium battery production, powerful and robust pumps are essential to fulfil the high demands on precision and reliability. With the NEMO® progressing cavity pumps and TORNADO® rotary lobe pumps, NETZSCH has the optimum solutions for such demanding applications. The pumps are specially designed to deliver consistently high performance even under extreme conditions and to cope with the pumping of viscous, abrasive and aggressive media. Their robust design minimises downtime and increases service life, resulting in a sustainable reduction in operating costs. This increases efficiency and improves product quality while ensuring a consistent and controlled material feed.

5. Customised solutions for lithium battery production

Depending on the process step, the expectations of pumps in lithium battery production could not be more different. Whether for raw material extraction, the mixing and wet grinding process, conveying in the wet grinding and deagglomeration process, dosing in the coating process or recycling batteries, we understand your specific requirements and challenges. That's why we offer customised pump solutions tailored to your needs. Our pumps can be flexibly configured to ensure the optimum flow rate for each application. These customised solutions enable you to optimise your production processes and increase efficiency while meeting the highest quality standards. By working closely with you, we develop innovative and reliable pump systems precisely tailored to the specific requirements of lithium battery production.
